Michigan's White River
A hidden treasure amoung rivers!

Located in Hesperia, Michigan, the White river is a hidden treasure among rivers! The White is about 20 miles from Newaygo and is nessled right between the Muskegon and the Pere Marquette Rivers.

This quaint little river is fairly shallow and easily waded. The bottom contour is similar to Au Sable or Pere Marquette with shallow gravel riffles with holes and runs in between.

The White is generally waded; drift boating is difficult due to the normal low water. It is mostly suited to rafts and Wading.

We generally guide the White when the Muskegon is too high or a new batch of chromers has just shown up!

Species in the White include Steelhead from November through May, resident Trout year-round but primarily May and June, Salmon in September and October. Other species include Walleye and white suckers.

Hatches on the White include Sulfurs, Gray Drake, Ephrons, and a plethora of Caddis and Stone flies! Stone flies emerge in late February and March. Primary hatches are in May, June , July, and August.
