Manistee River
The Manistee River is known as one of the best trout and salmon waters east of the Rockies. Originally filled to the brim with native Grayling (there's even a town with the namesake nearby), brown trout, King salmon and the ever-following steelhead now own the water. The gorgeous water stretches through the Huron Manistee National Forest to Tippy Dam where you'll find a packed crowd and experienced guides putting in each day of fall.
