Now that the weather appears to be breaking and spring may be just around the corner, I will start a regular update on the fishing in our area. At the present time the fishing for brown trout is red hot at the piers and at the bubbler with limit catches being the norm. We talked to one fisherman who took 55 brown trout last week (limit each day) in 7 days of fishing. The Kalamazoo River is also warming and the steelhead fishing is improving with some nice steelhead being landed using spawn.

We will be launching the boat in about three weeks and will begin our 2010 charter season. I will begin posting fishing report every week or two and help keep you updated on the fishing and once the boat is in the water I will post the reports every Monday. For information or for reservations email me at captron@chartermichigan.com.
