The Top Gun Fishing Team’s 2nd Annual

Trophy Trout Bonanza

After a long winter of sitting at home dreaming of leaping fish and curled over rods, we’re ready to get out and shake off the winter dust. As temperatures begin to warm, so does the appetites of our great lakes trout species. The spring steel head run will shortly be in full swing and football browns will soon be cruising the lakeshore looking for a tasty meal. We are ready to fish.... How about you?

Registration

The second annual Trophy Trout Bonanza will be held on Sunday, April 9, There will be both a Steel head and Brown Trout category in which prizes will be awarded. The entry fee is $25.00 per person and that fee will automatically enter you in both divisions. This fee will also give you a nice warm bite to eat at Michael’s after the weigh in. Entry fees may be paid at Michael’s Bar and Grille in Ludington. Michael’s is located at 129 W. U.S. 10 right in downtown Ludington. All registration fees must be paid by 6:00 pm on April 8th.
