What a great time of year to be in Northern Michigan!! Hunting, fishing and wonderful fall color! Opening day of bird season I fished in the morning, had some good action with streamers. Caught a great rainbow and lots of smaller fish. After lunch my hunting buddies and I headed for the woods!! They had six flushes on grouse!! On their evening swim we were blessed with five eagle sightings. Life is good!!!

It has been a while since I have checked in. I have been remodeling my kitchen and dinning room. It has been quite a job, but a fun one. After fifty years things need a redo! Between being a carpenter and a fishing guide I haven't had time for much else.

Fishing has been steady mostly hoppers and ants of late. Lots of brook trout. They are beautiful little jewels and create a lot of action. We had frost one morning this week so fall is knocking on the door. Hope we get at least a taste of Indian Summer!!!

Will be back At Ocean Reef November 1, and ready for action. Get in touch if you would like to set up some dates for this winter.
