Welcome to River Marine Outfitters

A fishing guide is a person who is not tied to his own agenda, but a person whose purpose is to give you the best fishing experience possible. River Marine Outfitters is the most raccoon-eyed, fish seeing, boat rowing, fly casting, gore-tex wearing, fish netting guide you’ll ever find. Bill is a Proud member of R.L.Winston Pro Staff .

Because River Marine Outfitters is not tied to a particular shop or "brick and mortar" location, we have the freedom to truly customize any itinerary, whether it be a day trip out of Manistee, or perhaps a road trip adventure. We can plan a trip to maximize your fishing and minimize the headaches that come with planning such a trip. We have unlimited possibilities within a short drive from our headquarters in Manistee, with most of our destinations within 45 minutes from downtown, and numerous others a bit further away. Two days on the Manistee, a day on the betsie, and then a day on the upper Manistee? Not a problem. You no longer have to try and work around guide schedules for different rivers and different parts of the state. Our knowledge, experience, and willingness to travel, guarantees that you will be in the right place at the right time.
