HOME | LAKE ST. CLAIR | MANISTEE RIVER | CAPT DOUG SAMSAL | RATES Fishing Guide for Manistee River & Lake St. Clair |
Meet Captain Doug
Welcome! A little about myself. My mother, a full blooded Canadian and being raised on Lake Of The Woods, Kenora Ontario, gave me a lifetime incentive for fishing Musky, Bass, Walleye and Pike. In 1977, I purchased a cabin near the Big Manistee River at Wellston, Michigan and began absorbing all the details on how to catch the mighty Steelhead. Entering and winning many fishing tournaments, I soon became a licensed river guide. My interests grew into Lake Michigan and Lake Erie but the WORLD CLASS Musky, Smallmouth Bass and Walleye combo drew me to Lake St Clair, St Clair and Detroit River.
I sincerely look forward to meeting you and sharing a moment on the water. |
