The Pere Marquette is a National Wild and Scenic River recognized as one of the few trout and salmon fishing rivers of this quality remaining in the nation. This river was the location of the first brown trout introduction in the United States in 1884. Rainbows were planted in 1885. Today, the river also provides world-class fishing for steelhead and Chinook salmon.
