In this episode we WadeOutThere with Mike Schultz from Dexter, Michigan. Mike grew up in Michigan fishing conventional gear on small ponds and lakes around his home, until he started driving and found the Huron River. On a trip to Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, he was introduced to fly fishing while being drawn to the rivers’ salmon and steelhead. He continued fly fishing back home on the Huron River while waiting for the salmon seasons up north.
Mike played hockey in college and attended business school, while continuing to fly fish. After school he continued fly fishing and guiding until his dream of building his own shop became a reality. Today, Mike is a guide and owner of Schultzoutfitters, located on the banks of the Huron River, not far from where his love of fly fishing took hold as a child.
We discuss building a confident and welcoming fly shop team, the Huron River, and Smallmouth tactics and fly design.
