<\/a> brown trout that I could hold for a picture, but I kick myself because I was arrogant enough to think I had it all figured out. Catching a fish is just some silly end game anyway.\u00a0 The measure of a good fisherman is in figuring out the angles and, really, there\u2019s only one – slide into the wild and the rest will take care of itself.<\/p>\nBrown Drakes are system wide on most of the streams in Northern Michigan and the Iso\u2019s are right on their heels. Sulphurs, Caddis, and little olive and yellow Stoneflies continue to round out the menu.\u00a0 Hex are on the gas stations and fast food places to the South of Grayling and on the horizon for our area. We should see the first of the big bugs right about the middle of the month.<\/p>\n
Hope to see you all soon\u2014It\u2019s JUNE!<\/p>\n
