Beaver Island Carp Fishing

Beaver Island Carp

So I get invited to go on this Carp fishing trip by me friend Cameron Mortenson of the Fiberglass Manifesto. It’s to a place called Beaver Island, which sits in the middle of Lake Michigan. I’ve heard of it, and to Carp fly fishing fanatics it’s legendary. Kinda like the “Seychelles of Carp Fishing”.

Several months ago I accepted the invite. Now I’m there. Or here?

Also along on the trip are Dan Frasier (Carp Pro), Alex Landeen, Matt Smythe (fishing poet), and guides Kevin, Steve and Austin from Indigo Guide Service.

So far, an excellent crew in a great location. Incredible fishery. I’ll do a longer post when I return, so for now, a few images will have to do.
