Garden River Fishing Report

Dennis with a streamer caught steelhead, 9/24

Water levels are dropping after going up 18 inches Friday during very heavy thundershowers. The high water moved fish into the system and allowed them to fly up river .There are fish spawning in most areas.

It feels like the last of the run, the final push is going on now. I would expect that next week salmon numbers will start falling .

My guess is that here are now kings at 11 Mile but I don't have any first hand knowledge.

Jon and I come home the end of this week, we will be guiding in Michigan. Check the Manistee and Pere Marquette river reports for available dates.

Thank you to all of our guests on the Garden River this year. It was a very successful year with great people, plenty of fish to catch, beautiful surroundings and many memories. We have a small number of dates available for 2008. If you want your choice call soon.
