Bass Fishing at Cedar River
How to catch Cedar River Bass

Michigan has the largest body of water around the country. Throughout Michigan, anglers join at various lakes, rivers, ponds, streams, etc, including at Cedar River. The tributary waters extend to three branches, which include Beaverton and the Tobacco River.

Along the river, you can enjoy fly-fishing near the Middle Branches, or the West Branch. Meadows and heavy wooded areas along the way limit fly-fishing, yet it is possible to land a bass.

Wild browns are noted near two branches, i.e. the starting point of Cedar River, and connected waters along Bard Road. Blue Ribbon trout are often caught in this area. The deeper spots are where you will catch the larger trout.

Upstream you will cross the Middle Branch, near Stage Road. Continue upstream to the North Branch. Along the North Branch, you will meet with the West Branch, which extends to the fly-fishing areas. The larger, blue ribbon trout swim around this section. Travel forward to Wiggins Lake, which is a confined area. The dam extends toward Beaverton. The water is warm in this area, which attracts rock bass and the smallmouth bass. Pike also run along this area. As you move down further stream, you will find big trout hunting areas. The area is near Tittabawassee, Sugar River, and Meridian Road.
Once you arrive at Tittabawassee River, you have hit the residence of muskellunge, smallmouth bass, largemouth bass, walleye, northern pike, channel catfish, carp, panfish, suckers, and panfish. A wide selection of Anadromous, brown trout and rainbow runs through this area as well. Coho and Chinook salmon run this area also.

The river branches over to the Dow Dam, Alma Michigan, Sanford Dam, Douglas Road, Tamarack Road, Mount Pleasant, Chippewa Road, and Barryton. The river extends up to 376 miles.
How to hunt bass
