2008 TROPHY LIST

2007 TROPHY LIST

2006 TROPHY LIST

 

Rusty Gates passed on 12/19/09. He was a tireless, fearless guardian of the Au Sable River watershed. Rusty was the spearhead for special regulations resulting in the Holy Water as we know and enjoy it today, the unrelenting champion of cold, clean water throughout Michigan, and the icon for conservation in the upper Great Lakes.

He was gentle and patient with friends, a lion in defense of his beloved river, and a special hero to me.

For more information, including memorial contributions, please visit the Anglers of the Au Sable website.

Current Conditions: January 15

Cold, snow, ice - bring your snow sled.
