Au Sable River - Lake Huron Fishing Report


Recommended Posts

We left for the river Saturday morning around 5:00am with boat in tow,arrived at the launch around 6:15 to see that we were the first boat there:grin:. We left the launch and headed down river to the first hole,we anchored the boat and set up for the first cast. 4 casts later my brother said "fish",wrestled it to the boat it appeared to be a nice chrome hen about 8 pounds. He said as he put it in the cooler "one down five to go":grin:.After about a 1/2 hour no fish we pulled up and headed up river in quest for 5 more arrived at the next hole which this one treated us good we took 4 out in about 25 minutes, mind you it's only around 8 am or so and we already have 5 in the cooler:grin:. I said to my brother "if we keep going like this it will be an early day", :) we fished a little bit more there with nothing not even a sniff.:mad:. So we pulled up again and headed up to the next stop.We dropped anchor again,nothing for about 15 minutes and then i hooked what felt like moby dick,the fight was on for about 10 minutes or so and then we saw it my brother said wow thats a big brown, i wrestled that fish to the boat where we were just about to net it and the hook pulled out:angry2: for the next 25 minutes there was a lot of cussing going on by yours truly.So we managed to fish for a while with good success caught and released 2 little skippers.But we managed to boat our 6 th fish for the cooler so we caught altogether 9 for the day and headed back to the launch to go get some lunch and a cold one at Desi' in Footsite.:grin:

We just got back today at 3:00 fished this morning and managed to go 4 for 8 in the top half of the river.All the fish except 3 were dark and appeared to be in the river for a while the rest were chrome. So all in all it was a fantastic weekend.And didnt manage to "break" nothing.We had high water for both days which was good for fishing. Not a whole bunch of traffic on the water,which made accessing our holes pretty easy. So the forecast for anyone wanting to go up there is some fish in the river.I'll post some pics when i transfer them to the computer. So tight lines and bent rods......
