About this water

The Muskegon River below Croton Dam is one of Michigan's finest tailwater fisheries, producing large brown trout and steelhead year-round thanks to cold, consistent water releases. The river is wide and wadeable in many sections, with excellent dry fly and nymph fishing throughout the season. Steelhead runs in spring and fall are legendary among Michigan anglers.
