Hatches: on the Muskegon are vast and prolific.
Being a tail water, it is loaded with caddis of many species. It
is also host to large numbers of Mayflies; Gray Drake, Sulfurs,
Blue-winged Olives, and Stone flies. Best hatch months are May,
June, July, August, and September. This river also has phenomenal
streamer fishing in May and June!
Back-Bouncing for Steelhead is very productive for Michigan Steelhead during the winter months. Our favorite technique is center pin float fishing. Using a float and suspending a trout bead or spawn sack below the float. Light spinning tackle also works great. During the Fall and Winter migrations of Steelhead, many fly fishing techniques work well including spey, floating lines with indicators, running lines with and egg and nymph. We also spend a lot of time focusing on fly fishing with Alaska trout beads. Guided fishing charters are available on the Muskegon River throughout the year. |
As Summer begins, We look forward to wonderful trout
fishing and and amazing hatches that the Muskegon River has to offer.
Great populations of resident Rainbow and Brown trout rising to
caddis dry flies!! Our guides wait all season for the six weeks of
the Gray Drake spinner fall, and may fly hatches of epic proportion
with large rising trout! Please join us for some wonderful trout
fishing on the mighty Muskegon River. Located less than
an hour from Grand Rapids, the Muskegon River boast some of
the absolute best Steelhead, Salmon, and Trout fishing in the
Great Lakes Region! With expansive gravel bars, slow deep holes,
runs and over fourteen miles of spawning gravel, it's no wonder
the Mighty Muskegon is home to so many trout and game fish species.
The Muskegon River is a boat river where jet boats
are king. Jet boats allow you to find and stay with the fish.
During the summer months, drift boats and wading are great ways
to cover the river.
The Mid-section, Thornapple access to Newaygo is where large numbers of Great Lakes Steelhead and Salmon migrate to hold and spawn throughout the winter and spring. The months of November, December, March and April
are the best times of the year for Steelhead. Ten pound steelhead
are common but there are fish up to 20 pounds! Due to the great quality and diversity of fly fishing in Michigan, Betts Guide Service is pleased to offer exciting and memorable guided trips on other outstanding Michigan rivers. In addition to guided fishing on the Muskegon River and given the quality and variety of Michigan fly fishing. The St. Mary's River, St. Joseph River, and the Big Manistee River also offer the best in Michigan Fly Fishing. Manistee River Steelhead in November and December are great for Fall & Winter.
