The Trout Tune Up is an annual gathering of MFFC members on the first Saturday of April at the Walled
Lake Outdoor Education Center in Commerce Township. The Club rents a structure called the Yurt for
the day and provides food, beverages and a place to get warm.
The yurt is a semi-permanent structure which was used by the Mongolian Nomads. It is the Asian
version of a tepee. The Lowe's Yurt is 30 feet in diameter which is built on a 36x50 foot deck and can
hold up to 50 people at one time.
We fish the Huron River there, which has recently been stocked by the DNR with trout from a nearby
hatchery. The DNR usually puts in 2000 to 3000 fish between the Moss Lake dam and Wixom road
bridge. Special trout regulations (flies only) are in effect for that stretch from the 1st thru the end of
the month.
All club members are encouraged to attend and are welcome to come anytime throughout the day
between the hours of 8 am and 5 pm.
This outing makes for a good time to test out new equipment you may have acquired at the Expo, over
the Holidays or after last trout season ended.
Hope to see you there and don’t forget your fishing license.
