*Please Allow some flexibility between the Betsie or the Big Manistee as we want to put you on the best fishing possible. Sometime the fish don't follow the calendar and the fishing might be better on the other river we fish.
**We strongly encourage catch and release of all fish. We do not support taking home "limits" in the river. All brown trout will be released. If you would like to keep a salmon or a steelhead, we would be happy to fillet it for you.
***Although tips are not necessary, they are very much appreciated.
**** Snagging fish is not permitted
Rescheduling and Cancellations
I require a $100 dollar deposit on all trips. If you need to cancel the date 15 or more days before the trip, we will try to work on another date. If that is not possible, I will refund your money. If for any reason a trip needs to be cancelled within 30 days, your deposit will be put towards a future trip or it will be forfeited. If for any reason, weather related we can not go fishing, we will try to find you another date or refund your money.
Payment for full trip is required before we leave the launch. We accept cash, checks or some 3rd party sites.
