Water levels on the rivers were high and muddy after the recent rains, but catch rates should improve as the waters recede, the Michigan Department of Natural Resources said Wednesday in its weekly fishing report.
The DNR reminds anglers that November is a good time to fish for those who don't like crowds. Fishing starts to take a back seat to hunting and that opens up space on the lakes, rivers, piers, docks and shorelines, the DNR noted.
