2025 Women on the Water
July 25 – July 27
Hey ladies, looking for more fishy friends? Join us for our annual Women on the Water weekend getaway! Schrems West Michigan Trout Unlimited proudly presents this women’s only weekend at the Pere Marquette River Lodge.
The PM Lodge is an Orvis-Endorsed Outfitter with a fully stocked fly shop located along the banks of one of Michigan’s most prized blue-ribbon trout streams – the Pere Marquette River in Baldwin. Check out this article on the Pere Marquette River from Trout Magazine and learn more about TU’s Priority Waters work on the Pere Marquette.
Schedule
The focus of this weekend is on camaraderie and fly fishing at dark! All experience levels are welcome. There will be opportunities to learn and fine-tune fly fishing skills ahead of our full-day guided float trip on Saturday night. Guide trips are scheduled in the evening in hopes of dodging the heat of summer as this is better for fishing and trout handling. We will likely start by casting big, buoyant dry flies and hopper patterns, and as dusk turns to night, switch over to mousing in the dark for bigger brown trout (the plan is subject to change based on conditions).
