WHOO ANOTHER ROOT RIVER VIDEO I LOVE IT

[@BassAndBrews]

Thanks, this was the third of the 3 parter. Took a little break between videos though.

[@bigworm45yeet58]

@@BassAndBrews are the steelhead in the root yet?

[@BassAndBrews]

@@bigworm45yeet58 I don’t follow the steelhead run much but I don’t think that starts up till late winter early spring.

[@bigworm45yeet58]

@@BassAndBrews alright thanks i did hear eric haaja caught some in the river as well as some browns

[@BassAndBrews]

@@bigworm45yeet58 Nice, I unfortunately don’t live in the area anymore otherwise I’d just go check it out!

[@wifishyt1951]

Thanks for the info!

[@matthewd.3276]

wow....exactly what i was looking for! We went up to lake Michigan yesterday and all the Kings were gone...must be in the rivers??? I may drive back up and try the root river.

[@BassAndBrews]

Yep they all move to the rivers this time of year. You can sometimes still find them in the harbors at the mouth of the rivers. This current rain will draw them into the rivers even faster though.

[@matthewd.3276]

How long will they be in the root river for? Looking to make a trip in the next week or 2. Thanks.

[@WillieMakeit]

thank you very much

[@alexkane1]

just curious, do trout and steel head make it to the second two parks you mentioned? I am wonder since the steelhead facility is down river cutting them off right?

[@BassAndBrews]

Yes they do make it up to the next 2 parks. If the water is super high the fish can bypass the dam at Lincoln. But that is not normally the case. Usually the fish will enter the steelhead facility. The DNR will process them there, than send them up the river to let them continue their journey and for fisherman to catch.

Good info man.

[@BassAndBrews]

Thanks!

[@iPOCK3TS]

I was thinking of going out there with a plopper tomorrow morning there should be bass in there I’m assuming

[@BassAndBrews]

Best of luck to you. I have never seen bass in the root myself but I’ve heard of them being caught in there

[@iPOCK3TS]

I got a spot off of 5 mile road you have to wade down I catch 20 to 40 a day but you have to be there at sunup they just die at around 8 am but I been wondering if they are farther down and they are large mouth not smallies

[@iPOCK3TS]

@@BassAndBrews and they are average 10 inch to 12 inch with a 15 sprinkled in

[@BassAndBrews]

@@iPOCK3TS That sounds like a fun day of fishing. I have never fished above the Horlick dam.

[@GabesFishing]

It’s November the 3rd can I catch trout in the root river? Or is trout season over when does trout season end, answer ASAP

[@BassAndBrews]

Hi Gabe’s, trout season is primarily in the spring. The fall time (now) is primarily salmon. The root river report shows 12 trout have entered the facility this fall, so not much for trout this time of year.

[@GabesFishing]

Question are there salmon by colonial park?

[@BassAndBrews]

Yes, salmon are passed upstream from the steelhead facility. Check out our salmon fishing trip from 2021. We started fishing in colonial.

[@GeoFishing]

We have to meet for some brews! 😎👍🍻
