Cooler weather has been present and water temps have responded to be at a pretty normal seasonal level.  Some nice rains have also passed through the Upper Peninsula that delivered a much needed shot of water, stream levels vary depending upon location.  An eventful week to say the least, I was able to spend a day fishing w friends Jerry Darkes of Scott Fly Rods, Patagonia & Scientific Anglers as well as fellow river guide Jamie Clous of downstate Old AuSable Fly shop.  Both work for cutting edge industry leaders that offer the very best in the business, be sure to visit their sites for info on products & services.  Also ultra congrats to angler Chris B on doing everything right to make sure the Musky below did not get away :)  A true trophy on the fly, 45 1/2 inches and an estimated weight of over 25 lbs-Yes Sir!

Also great news on the U.P. Brook Trout limit increase proposal, Michigan DNR is NOT recommending the creel limit increase.  Still some work to do, but it is looking good for the conservation minded folks! Click here for info.
