Kalamazoo River Steelhead

[westrate]

11/12/2008

There has been very little big lake fishing with cold weather and high winds, however the steelhead river fishing is beginning to turn on. Capt. Tony Walte reports that the fishing in the St. Joe was still a little on the slow side but should pick up soon. The Kalamazoo River, however has been producing good catches of steelhead. Back trolling body baits into the holes and bouncing spawn both have been very productive. Capt. Walte has been taking from 3 to 7 fish per trip and he thinks that with some shots of warm weather and rain, the run should pick up. Most of the leaves are off the trees so the river has cleared up and more lines can be run without fouling them up. If you are interested in this type of fishing contact me and I can set up a trip with Capt. Walte on either the Kalamazoo or the St. Joe. For more information email me at [email protected].
