It’s finally  starting to look and sound like Spring up here on the Pere Marquette River.  Last week, the banks started to turn green and the Grouse started to drum along the banks of this great watershed.  Trout season officially kicked off last Saturday in our state. I spent last week back rowing everyday while pitching streamers at the banks with clients.  The streamer fishing for Trout and Steelhead was decent last week especially on the warmer and cloudier days.  The water temps have still been cool for this time of year, so the dry fly fishing has been slow.  Last Thursday we sat out in a pretty good “all day” rain event. By Saturday, that rain brought the river levels up making for some good streamer fishing. For flies, try smaller Streamers and baitfish imitations in an assortment of colors depending on the sky and the water levels.  I saw a few Little Black Stoneflies, BWO’s, and some March Browns flying around early last week when the sun was out.  Good Luck out there and tight Lines !!!
