Hoppers and Poppers – Bass & Trout Reports

  • Smallmouth & Pike along the Manistee continue to chew on different types of baitfish patterns.  New report is up.  Salmon continue to trickle in, hunting them with big streamers is the only way right now.  As numbers are low.  But to escape the crowds plenty of open smallmouth water still to play around in.
  • Pere Marquette trout are looking up for ants, beetles, and hoppers.  But with the rain this past week the small streamer bit picked back up as well.
  • Other Water still has some great smallmouth fishing as well.  With the high salmon pressure building we continue to explore new sections to fish.  The other water will fish well into Sept.  Give us a shout if you want to see less pressure.  231-228-7135
