Late Winter Early Spring Michigan Steelhead Fishing On The Grand River At 6th Street Dam

[@scottwinslow940]

Great video! Big fish, heavy current, your arms must feel like lead after a day on the Grand.

[@ReelMichiganAnglers]

When I fish, I drift nonstop and pretty much only stop to take a drink or go to the bathroom lol that’ll get your arms sore let alone tugging on a few good fish especially in that current. :)

[@MoreShortsThanLongs]

Holy spot burn batman! Please name drop more great places to fish so soon they can all be filled with googans crossing lines and hero drifting in their addicted hats and simco waders.

[@ReelMichiganAnglers]

There is nothing secret about this spot.

[@FukNiggatard]

@@ReelMichiganAnglersfor real lol 😂

[@mireeladdiction620]

That whole river is already F’d 😂

[@ReelMichiganAnglers]

@@mireeladdiction620 it’s the longest river in the state and has some secret sweet spots. This spot will always be a zoo all but 2 months of the year.

Funny guy, this place is no secret whatsoever

[@normankaster917]

What size is your inline sinker? 1/2 oz.🤔

[@ReelMichiganAnglers]

I was using a 17.5 g bobber with a 3/8 ounce float I believe.

[@ReelMichiganAnglers]

5/8 oz actually

[@davidvespa5370]

How deep do you guys fish that river? My brother lives in hastings. I'm in Mishawaka. We plan on fishing it for the first time next weekend. Any pointers would be great!?

[@ReelMichiganAnglers]

It’s 3 to 6 foot on average there. I fish a few inches to a foot off bottom usualy.

[@Thesteelhead]

I see you guys on the water all the time. I have to ask, do you pay full price on all your guided trips?

[@ReelMichiganAnglers]

We have a lot of friends with boats but also don’t mind booking a trip here and there. Technically we work for west Michigan guide Service doing their KZbin channel editing and filming so we go out with them a lot as part of our work agreement.

[@Thesteelhead]

@@ReelMichiganAnglers Right on. I saw you guys out yesterday and saw this today. Just had to ask. Tight lines

[@ReelMichiganAnglers]

@@Thesteelhead sometimes it’s just worth it to do it from the comfort of a boat lol

[@FISHING4DREAMS23]

How do you guys stay still in those rapids on a boat anchor 😢 always curious 🤔

[@ReelMichiganAnglers]

80-100 lb anchor.

[@JosephPerry-x3o]

I’m gonna steal your bead box

[@ReelMichiganAnglers]

Yeah, I threw that clip in there on purpose. That’s literally my top producing collection right there. I have a separate box of six and 8 mm and that’s pretty much what I use these days. I have plenty more at home, but those are the colors that are consistently producing for me. It’s pretty much all bloop beads, except for a few spirit river beads.
