Lovells Museum of Trout Fishing History

The Trout Fishing Museum was a significant step in the evolution of the Historical Society. Crafted from logs in 2001, this building, interestingly and uniquely, is Michigan's ONLY trout fishing history museum.

 

Each year we present a new set of exhibits based on a different theme while we also maintain an interesting set of permanent artifacts and other exhibits.

 

The permanent exhibits include:

  • Our tribute to the Unsung Heroes of the Au Sable

  • A fly fishing library

  • A selection of fly fishing films and documentaries

  • A variety of trout flies tied by important artists of the past

  • A detailed reproduction of Art Neumann’s Wanigas rod shop.

Board Members Richard Perry and John Porteous show TU President/CEO Chris Wood around the Museum.
