The Grand River is Michigan's longest river and second-largest drainage system. Its story is one of ruin to recovery. The river has many rocky shoals, logjams, and river grasses that hold fish. Depending on the time of year, we will either fish downtown Grand Rapids under the skyscrapers and fast-paced rapids or on the quieter, slower moving, more remotes sections of the Grand.
Rates start from $375.
