Welcome to The Fish Whisperer.com

This site is dedicated to The Pere Marquette Fishing Report and all the great pictures that come with it. Brown Trout & Steelhead will be the primary focus of this site with some King & Coho Salmon sprinkled in. Having fished most all of Western Michigan’s Streams, I made the Pere Marquette River my home over ten years ago, not only for it’s diverse population of migratory and resident Steelhead and Trout, but also for it’s broad spectrum of different Techniques and Flies that can be applied on a year round basis within it’s banks. The Pere Marquette is in the heart of Michigan’s Century Circle of Rivers and the center of my world!!

Though the Pere Marquette River is my home water and the river I fish more then any other, other watersheds that my boat gets wet in are The Manistee River, The White River, The Grand River, and even The Muskegon River if duty calls. Techniques that I favor are Indicator Nymph & Egg Fishing all year, Mouse & Hex Fishing after dark during the Summer months, Streamer Fishing in the Spring & Fall, and the very relaxing Hopper/Hatch Dry Fly Fishing of Summer midday’s. These Rivers, Techniques, and Flies will be the backbone of all discussions on this website; I will try too not only explain what I know, but also expand on what I know buy fishing new sections, patterns, and innovations that the sport reveals especially within Northern Michigan’s play ground of Cold Water Fisheries.

Whatever your skill level or style is, there is something on this site for you. Clients will have an outlet to look at their fish pics caught over the years in and out of my boat, and will be a great way to get current, informative reports that will give you insights no matter what the river conditions are. Tips and Tactics will cover techniques in season on the PM and surrounding streams; this is a Flies Only Website and I am a Flies Only Fishing Guide! Hope you have as much fun reading it as I will have posting it...TPL
