"The Fishing is the best I've seen in Manistee in 10 years"
(a quote by one of our veteran campers)

His son Hunter caught this 9.5# Steelhead (Yeah, I think Hunters is bigger too!)

The Manistee area is one of the premier Salmon and Steelhead fishing locations in Michigan.  This is considered to be a Michigan Hot Spot!  And from Insta Launch, you can access the fish no matter where they are, the River, the Lake, or the BIG Lake.
