“Spring and Summer:  A great time to experience the trout and other gamefish on a Michigan Stream”

Kevin is a regular presenter at our programs, and his talks are always interesting and provided with incredible photographs. Many club members have fished with Kevin, so ask around about our experiences with him!

Kevin Feenstra started Feenstra Guide Service LLC in 1997. He has spent countless hours on the Muskegon River and still fishes the river system and surrounding waterways every chance he can. While Kevin’s passion is swinging flies for steelhead, he loves to fish for any predator fish that is willing to eat a fly. Year after year, Kevin guides the Muskegon River for hundreds of days and still loves it. In addition to guiding, Kevin is an active writer and fly tier. His most recent project is a book, “Matching Baitfish”, which was published in November 2020. He has also published several fly fishing DVDS, including Searching for Steelhead, Striking Steel, and Big Appetite, Small mouth. He has authored many magazine articles, and his flies are published in fly tying manuals and magazines. Kevin frequently speaks at fishing shows and clubs throughout the Midwest. Kevin has one other passion, outdoor photography, where he hopes to capture the beauty and majesty of West Michigan both above and below the water. He resides in Newaygo, Michigan, with his lovely wife and three children.
