Trout Season Opening Day on the Pine River



Pine River Trout - Opening Day

Opening Day for Trout Season here on the Pine River, just north of Luther, MI, began with temperatures in the 30's that warmed up to the mid 50's. The weather has been pretty nice so far. The river is in good shape this year. The campground is not nearly as full as it was last year, in fact, the tent area is empty.
We left home around noon on Thursday so we could get a good spot at the campground. We didn't get our first choice, but we got the next best.
As of Sunday, we have caught 6 fish, 5 Browns and 1 Rainbow. All of our fish were caught using shiners on Saturday. As it stands right now, Joe caught BIG FISH, measuring in at 16 inches. Our Opening Day Trout Dinner was excellent!!
