crewsout Posted September 20, 2010 Share Posted September 20, 2010 anyone have any information on the grand river in grandrapids? just moved up here for school and looking to get some advice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
livintobefishin Posted September 20, 2010 Share Posted September 20, 2010 My advice, go to the 6th street dam and watch people for awhile. This is a good way to gain some information, and if you go, you are sure to see something entertaining, fish or not. If you don't know where it is, there is a parking lot at Monroe and the 6th street bridge, and also down Front street off of Leonard st. Any thing else, just ask here or send me a PM.

Grant Sadler Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 I got a Pair Normans, I don't know they have a Normans where you are, but I think I paid like $30.00 3 yrs. ago still use them today Just keep them in dark and dry place like closet or dark corner in basement, I hand them from the foot ends and put crumple up newspaper in them to keep out wrinkels out when not in use .
