Traverse City named one of top US fishing towns

February 4, 2008/in michigan, travel, traverse city

Serenity by DarrinW

Field & Stream Magazine has selected Traverse City for their list of the top 20 fishing towns in America saying:

Between May and October, there is no consistently better place to be fishing in America than Traverse City, Mich. Diversity is the key: Lake Michigan with salmon and steelhead; Grand Traverse Bay with some of the best smallmouth pockets and carp flats in America; and more rivers and natural lakes filled with trout, bass, and panfish than you can begin to touch in one season.

The photo is Serenity by DarrinW (available at super-size for your desktop wallpaper!). Thanks to the Traverse City Record-Eagle for the story tip!
