Mindful Trout LLCChase Brook + Brown Trout in the north country of Michigan
Suit up in your waders, UPF and bug proof gear and come hiking along through and along the beautiful tributaries of northern Michigan. Based in the Manistee National Forest, Ash will take you to some of the most remote country chasing small to medium sized tributaries in search of wild natural reproducing trout. Casting situations are going to require anglers to have familiarity with using roll casting, switch casting, bow-n-arrow, dabbing, tight lining, and other tight water techniques. You'll get to experience the beauty of backwoods fishing while running into deer, eagles, osprey, minks, otters and other beautiful Michigan Wildlife. Ash will provide you with a homemade meal, snacks, water, coffee, tea and candy to keep your energy levels up. All equipment for these experiences will vary in equipment weights from 1-4 weight set-ups. This is back country fishing in remote sections of water. Your ability to hike and move around obstacles is critical in making the most out of this experience. Expect to hike between 3 to 10 miles depending on your fishing aspirations and goals.

Historic Pere Marquette Flies-Only Section
Depending on the day, we'll launch from either the historic Forks, M-37 or Green Cottage entrance points to the river and float past classic cabins, structures and more from the birthplace of brown trout being planted in the United States. We'll spend a full day floating and fishing the historic flies only section of the Pere Marquette River located in beautiful Baldwin Michigan. Depending on season and conditions you’ll get a chance to either dry fly, indicator or streamer fish your way through the waters that put brown trout on the map for Michigan and North America. In 1884 the first stocking of German brown trout occurred in the Baldwin River, what was once referred to as the Upper Branch of the Pere Marquette River. Float past beautiful cabins scattered throughout remote settings. Enjoy a lunch on the river bank or a nice warm or cold tea or coffee between casts. Ash provides guiding equipment that is comparable to Echo, TFO, Redington other entry level equipment with either Scientific Angler or Airflo lines depending on fishing techniques along with guide flies and rigging. You're welcome to bring your own gear or flies if you'd like to give them a try.
