River Report June 14, 2018 We’re riding insane waves in a tide of schizophrenic weather and that has made fishing predictions nearly impossible. We’ve been waiting on the immanent brown drake spinner flight on the Manistee River and we’ve been spending late nights watching for Hex on the slower waters of the Au Sable River.

But it’s hard to shout out a woohoo! We were all of us Michiganders primed with Spring Fever and then the awful came to visit. But like a bad house-guest, it will leave sooner or later. -
