Gear:
Streamside Guide Service
supplies all of your rods,
reels, line, and flies. We
use the highest quality
Orvis rods and reels. Your
flies are custom tied by
Tim, so there is no charge
for their use.
Streamside runs custom jet
sleds that are designed with
the rivers we fish in mind.
They are the ultimate river
fishing machines! We also
use high power Evenrude
E-Tec motors to get us to
the fish quickly and
comfortably. Because we are
located on some of the
finest water that the
Muskegon has to offer,
Streamside doesn’t have to
mess around with busy
launches. For some of the
smaller rivers, or for a
leisurely day on the
Muskegon we fish in a safe,
clean, comfortable drift
boat.
Shore Lunch's:
A shore lunch and beverages are provided
for you. Lunch usually consists of either steak, pork,
chicken, brats, or kabobs, with two side dishes.
Testimonials:
Tim's professional approach and
love of fly fishing is wonderful. He helps you find and
land the big ones. Fishing with Tim is a relaxing
experience combined with periods of excitement while
netting a trophy.
Jackie Campbell: Flossmoor, Illinois
My father and I had a fantastic day
on the river with Timmy. His knowledge, hands-on
instruction, and patience made the trip enjoyable. He
put us on fish, introduced my dad to the allure of the
Muskegon river, and we even put a few in the net. It was
a memorable day, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend
Tim Vangessel to anyone looking for the same.
