Out Like a Ram

Well this is not the first nor the last time Michigan weather will fool you…i wish it was a joke but it isn’t. We can hope that this is the last of winter, fingers are crossed and hope is high. The river is still there and some will still fish.

Steelhead where starting to show up and the trout bite was heating up. This weather should put a pause on things but once the weather passes everything should pick back up. Fishing the deep water around the spawning steel is steel the main event still but a streamer can have its moment amongst all the eggs.

Brew some hot jasmine flower green tea, take a Sunday drive, and the last white winter covering. You may even get lucky and see a Bald Eagle eating a dead dear…just proves nobody should pass on a free meal.

Let there be no more snow!!
