Upper Manistee River Trout Fishing Report

July 29th, 2010


Manistee River Fishing

Ken R. his biggest river brown to date, not bad! 7/28

The daytime fishing on the Upper was as good as it gets today! Today’s favorite recipe was .….. rubber legs with a pinch of foam. We caught fish on ants, beetles, hoppers, skunks, patriots and the list goes on. BWO’s and Trico’s were available as well and a Cricket with a Trico dropper makes it easier to fish the smaller stuff if your eyes are not good at finding the little flies. Use the Cricket as an indicator and you are fishing the best of both worlds. The river is in great shape and the recent rains have the water levels at a more comfortable and cooler flow. Fishing from here on out should be good to go until the fall frosts start to slow down the hopper bite. The night fishing is currently on hold as the moon is way too bright and the fishing has been inconsistent at best. As Chuck said the other night “You can read a newspaper right now”! This will soon change and so will the fish mood. Overall fishing is good to great right now and the stormy days have been providing some very cool opportunities to catch fish with a variety of methods.


Tight Lines,
