Since the introduction of steelhead into the Northeast in the late 19th century, the Great Lakes and their tributaries have become the home to some of the most best steelhead fishing in the world. The serene environment of the beautiful rivers and creeks create a sharp contrast to the adrenaline infused action of fighting a gorgeous two to three foot chrome goddess.

The abundance of small and large creeks also provides fishable water under most weather and water conditions. While there are steelhead to be found throughout most of the year, the peak season is generally mid October to April.

Whether you are a beginner or an expert, you will find that your guide will accomodate your needs and choose locations appropriate to your skill level.

Your guide, Alberto Rey, is not only an accomplished fisherman but also an educator and nationally recognized artist. His work is in the permanent collections of over a dozen museums and is a contributor to Gray’s Sporting Journal, Fish and Fly magazine, The Art of Angling Journal, American Angler, Fish and Fly magazine and other magazines. A watercolor or oil painting of your trophy steelhead or favorite stretch of water is a perfect way to remember the day's events.
