Our destination is Michigan's Grand River with expert fly fishing guides Tom and Max Werkman, the father-and-son team behind Werkman Outfitters, Grand Rapids, Michigan, and RiverQuest Charters. The Grand is Michigan's longest river, and it's loaded with steelhead, salmon, and smallmouth. The Grand's story is one of ruin to recovery, and today, it's fishing better than ever.   Tom and Max share the ins and outs of the Grand and its tributaries, along with what you need to know about seasons, food sources, top fly patterns, and rigs.   Also, they answer the age-old question, What are the conditions that draw salmon and steelhead into the river system?   And the answer might surprise you.   Stick around to the end for pro tips on why this father/son partnership is such a success.  Grab your 8-weight and chase some chrome with Tom and Max!
