June 4 - Muskegon River Trout



It was a great day to be on the water.  Jim and Greg found out first hand.  We started the float at about 2:00pm and found fish taking caddis on the surface right away.   Cinnamon caddis comprised the majority of the hatching action and the Allen Brothers Cutwing Caddis #16 in tan was the fly of choice.  I had planned on fishing some nymphs and possibly streamers but the action was good enough we never had to put down the dry rods.  What a terrible problem to have!   We saw lots of wildlife on the river and the weather was very pleasant.  A fine day spent with two fine gentlemen.
