Northland Outfitters offers a great fishing experience to fishermen.
"I have had the fortunate pleasure of hooking, playing, and landing great fish from Michigan to Florida and Hawaii, some that pushed
40 lbs...the brookie stands out among all the rest as my personal favorite."
- Wayne Dedyne

2 1/2 Hour Manistique River - Ten Curves Trip - click here to view our canoe & kayak rates
"Our shortest trip, covering a beautiful secluded 10 mile stretch of the Manistique River, is a favorite of both fishermen and recreational paddlers. Pike, Small Mouth Bass, Perch, Walleye, and even an occasional Brook Trout are among the species in these waters, which drain from Big Manistique Lake. Wildlife await the keen eyed and quiet paddler. Sandy beaches along the way make a great spots for a picnic or a swim on a hot day."

One Day on the Fox River - click here to view our canoe & kayak rates
"If you want to get a taste of the Fox River (and its prized Brookies) but can't spend two days and a night doing it, we do offer a one-day option on a more accessible section. We drop you off at the Fox River State Forest Campground northwest of Seney, then pick you up at the end of the day at the Seney Township Campground. You'll spend about 4 hours paddling and the rest of the time fishing. Like the lower Fox, this section is tag-alder lined and has deadfall to negotiate so it requires good paddling skills, but it is still relatively remote and is the source of some of the largest trophy Brookies we've seen. Our longest trips combine the Fox and Manistique Rivers and can last 6 or 7 days"

Fox River Canoeing & Fishing Trip - Click here to view our canoe & kayak rates
"The legendary Fox River, made famous by Ernest Hemingway, is a wilderness adventure for the avid fisherman and experienced paddler. Numerous deadfall in this wild and natural river makes it tough canoeing but good fishing. Overnight fishing trips can take from 1 to 3 nights."

Overnight Trips on the Manistique River - click here to view our canoe & kayak rates
"For those who want more than a day trip, we also offer excursions that can last anywhere from 2 to 7 days. The Manistique River starts at Manistique Lake and flows southwesterly more than 70 miles emptying into Lake Michigan at the city of Manistique. There will be a few cabins here and there along the way but most of this stretch is wilderness. It's one of the longest, undeveloped stretches of river still left in Michigan and is suitable for paddlers of all skill levels. Many families, scout, and church groups enjoy this trip."
