Michigan Trout Streams: A Fly-Angler's Guide

Rating:
Summary: Will save you YEARS of scouting MI streams and rivers
Review: I spent two full years trying to learn MI trout waters. Put 22,000 miles the first year on my new 4x4 (in 1989). I just wish this book had been out then. Would have saved me months of time, hundreds of dollars, and I would have had a LOT more fun and caught LOTS more fish. There are more secrets in this book than in all the others in the series combined. Sure would love to spend just one day on/in the water with these guys.

Summary: Michigan Trout Streams: A Fly-Angler's Guide
Review: This book is an excellent compilation of information about Michigan's best rivers and streams. It is a wonderful book whether you are a beginning angler or an expert. The authors went to all of these rivers and fished and talked to locals and even checked out some other events in the area of each river. Highly recomended!

Summary: The best and most up-to-date guide for Michigan
Review: This book is nearly all home runs. The descriptions are accurate and helpful. It's especially useful if you're tired of fishing the same "great" rivers (Ausable, PM, Manistee, etc) and getting skunked in a crowded, overfished venue. They'll show you dozens of locations most people have never considered that produce some very productive fishing. I've used this guide for the past two years and have never been disappointed. Hint: Look for the phrase "One of our favorite . . ." The authors really went to these places and really fished these streams so it's not like most of the guide books that are just warmed-over comments from 10-20 years ago.
