Fall Salmon/ Steelhead Trip
Every fall, the club hits the pristine rivers of northern Michigan in search of fresh chrome steelhead.
-
When: Generally the week before the Michigan Deer Season Gun Opener
-
Where: We stay in the Thompsonville Area near the Betsie and Manistee Rivers
-
This is a more hardcore trip and suited for anglers with the desire to work hard and put in the time to get on some fish
The fall trip tends to coincide with the collegiate steelhead tournament
Late Fall White Fish
Every fall, when the big lake temps have dropped, and the whitefish have hit the rivers, the club carpools together over the shores of Lake Michigan to target whitefish
-
When: The Tuesday before Thanksgiving
-
Where: Grand Haven State Park, Southern Pierhead
-
Other Details:
-
This is the shortest and most laid-back trip, only lasting one night and with no provided housing or cap on the number of members who can participate.
-
Winter Ice Fishing Trip
When the lakes are covered in ice and become safe to fish, we get our members out after panfish and walleye
-
When: The date and location all depend on safe ice and housing
-
We will not fish if we believe the ice conditions are in any way unsafe.
-
-
Where: The trip happens either MLK day or President's day weekend
-
Other Details:
-
This trip is more laid back and meant to create better bonds and friendships among our new members and let them interact and get to know the other members of the club
