Default Black depression!

Trout season closed on most streams in Michgan's UP today. I'd gotten out
62 times according to my fishing log and it would have been more if I had
not started the season with a broken leg.. I want more!

They close on Sept. 30??? Why? I'm sure there must be a good reason

Some states that have wild populations of fall spawning species close their
seasons around that time. Maine, New Hampshire and Vermont all close general
seasons on salmonoids between Sept 30 and the end of October.

Native, wild, UP brook trout spawn in the fall.

Spawning I'd guess. Georgia has seasonal streams that are closed from
Nov 1 to May 1.

Default Black depression!/simms wading staff


Asadi

LOL

Not exactly what I had in mind!

I never needed one before but I broke down and bought a Simms wading staff
which helped me get to the good fishing and let me stand the fast waters on
a week leg. $100 seems high but it's so versitle and well made it's worth
every penny.

Same in Wisconsin. But some stillwaters are still open, here and in Yooperville.
A local expert (and friend) says this is the best time to fish those waters. He
mostly uses traditional streamers (black ghosts, spruce flies, etc etc).
