Mike Schultz

Guide | Outfitter | SO Owner

Mike Schultz (known as “Schultzy” to most) is the Owner of Schultz Outfitters Fly Shop & Guide Service specializing in Southern Michigan angling, instruction, and destination travel.

Born and raised in the State of Michigan, Schultzy has been immersed in the outdoors from an early age. After graduating from Eastern Michigan University with a Bachelor of Business Administration, he started guiding and working in the fly-fishing industry full-time.

Logging countless hours on the water each year, Schultzy has developed a vast knowledge of Midwestern waters and beyond. The bulk of his guiding and angling takes place on his home waters of Southern Michiga - These Rivers offer world class warm-water fishing. His angling travels have taken him from Patagonia to Russia and many places in between.

Over the years with the help of the Huron River Watershed Council, he founded the Huron River Single Fly as well as the Huckin’ for the Huron. Both are annual fundraisers that take place on his home waters of the Huron River - Michigan’s Blue-Ribbon Smallmouth stream.

Simms Fishing Products Pro Team, YETI, G Loomis, Airflo, and Nautilus Ambassador programs and is a member of the Costa, Clackacraft and Regal Pro Staff. His signature flies are available through Fulling Mill and Rainys.

He currently resides in Dexter, Michigan on the banks of The Huron River with his wife, Allie, and sons, Tanner and Dylan.
