May Update

Opening weekend was a little wet, but we've come almost come to expect that the last few years.  The rain took the water levels up, so most opening weekend folks were using nymphs and streamers, and quite a few of them caught nice fish.  Dry fly action is still a little slow, but look for the hennies and olives to reappear, then the fish should start looking up.  Black and tan caddis is also evident, as are black stoneflies.  This weekend looks to be cool but fairly dry, so there should be more bugs. 

I'm getting calls from a few people asking if we're renting drift boats again.  The answer is yes … for now.  You may recall that I stopped renting them last year after several unpleasant incidents, but I've relented, at least for now.  However, if anyone's interested, one of the drift boats is for sale for $2,500, which is a very good deal for a boat that's still in fine shape.  Call the shop at 989-826-3411 for details.
