About Au Sable North Branch
The North Branch of the Au Sable is a smaller, wilder tributary to the main stem — dense streamside alder, wild brook trout in the upper reaches, and brown trout throughout. The Lovells area near the Crawford County State Forest is the heart of the North Branch fishery, with Type 1 restrictions protecting this cold, spring-fed headwater stream.
Regulations
Gear Restricted (Type 1/2) sections present. Verify Crawford County exceptions in current Michigan DNR Inland Trout & Salmon Regulation Guide. Michigan Fishing License required. Season opens last Saturday of April.
