Posts: 156	I apologize for an incomplete post. This is the sixth st dam(far left) in Grand Rapids, Mi. There is great fishing for steelhead, salmon, brown trout, walleye and occasional sturgeon. However a very dangerous place for folks who are don't know where the holes are, more than one has died here. The spot marked "D" is a quarry hole where limestone was mined, i've heard that hole is in the area of 70 ft deep. I had two friends who fell in, they hit the downstream side and said it was like a wall. I know there are peeps here from MI so I thought u might find it useful.

Oscoda, MI Posts: 2611	So, how's the fishing been there lately? We've been really low on water over here on the east side (Au Sable, Rifle, Au Gres) but we just got a bunch of rain and are due for snow afterwards...about time, I'm dying to get out my cross-country skiis and ice-fishing gear!

People spend way more time there than me, not a fan of concrete. Occasionally I'll stop by, more of a test run for the day before hitting other spots.
