Other customer memories from this trip

Matt runs a custom 18/60 jet boat and drift boat setup that's perfect for navigating Michigan's river systems around Stanwood. The jet boat handles shallow water and tight spots where the big fish hold, while the drift boat gives you that classic river fishing experience. Both boats come equipped with heaters for those chilly fall and winter trips when the steelhead are running. The jet boat's shallow draft lets us access spots other guides can't reach, and the drift boat provides a stable platform for working those deeper pools where the brown trout like to hang out. Whether we're chasing salmon during the fall run or targeting winter steelhead, these boats are rigged with everything needed for a successful day on the water.
