Hi
My son who is relatively new to fly fishing will be visiting me in late March early April and I would like to plan a couple trips for "any thing". I'd appreciate suggestions on where we might go and guide recommendations. Both of us are somewhat limited to fishing from a boat. Thanks for your help. Dave
Gates Lodge. Hire a guide for one day.
www.fishbaldwin.com is the web site for Baldwin Bait and Tackle. Despite the name they have a good fly shop with guide service for steelhead at that time of year.
Late March - early April is steelhead time in Mich. Try the Orvis Lodge in Baldwin for a nice guided trip and a place to stay. There are many other steelhead lodges and guides on the PM and Manistee but regular trout opener is not until the last Saturday in April.

I caught some of my first panfish on a flyrod from a rented rowboat in Kent Lake. It would be pretty early in the season for that, both the catching and the renting. If you get a couple of nice days with the sun warming the shallows early, who knows...won't know until ya try. :D
Otherwise what JC suggested and rainbow and Bobinmich also.
Enjoy
