Mikey has been running the Morice River Lodge for the past five seasons out of Frontier Steelhead Lodge in Smithers, BC. When Mikey isn't guiding winter steelhead in Oregon, he will come up to Haida Gwaii to guide. After 3 seasons on Haida Gwaii he has become adapt at hooking the hard to catch fish on a very consistent bases. With fresh eyes he looks for fish in small buckets most people would miss. The word “fishy” is a weak understatement if you are talking about the great steelhead master Michael Maclean. Mikey has found a way to guide steelhead for 6 months a year and those skills come through in spades when you spend a day on the water with him. Not many guides in North America catch and release more steelhead caught on a swung fly than Mikey on any given year.
"Awesome as usual! I wish is was a little more primitive, but I can handle the pampering too. Keep up the excellent work!."
