I guess it is not to soon, to be planning for that last big summer trip. I am traveling up to the Torch chain of lakes. I am hoping the wether will cooperate this year, usually I get rained on that weekend. We will be staying in Kalkaska.
You definatly have gutz to be on that chain that weekend. I'll be puttering around my quiet little lake with a TM and a 6 pack .
For me
It's Portage lake for a small anual family & friends tournament.
My brother who doesn't really fish comes to town for it every year.
Probably staying home and work on the Honey do list and pull some boat maintenance..I have to work through saturday that weekend..
Going to be heading to Grand Rapids that weekend to see family. Anyone on the west side who has a back seat open in their boat that weekend?
Ypsi... I might on Sunday that weekend... not sure of my schedule yet.
Fishing a tournament on Fremont Lake on Monday with my buddy Ron.
Power Pole on Muskegon Saturday and the way this season has been going probably licking the wounds on Sunday. LOL Hopefully not
Not too early to plan. Maybe I have both a boat AND a truck working by then?!? Probably somewhere small, quiet and near home regardless.
smallie fishin the secret spot!
Labor day weekend? I sure won't be out there with the crazies! I'll be on my deck with the grill and a few cold ones. I think I'll be hitting Lobdell next week though. Had a great time out on that lake a couple months ago.

My boyhood bass training lake. Lots of good memories on that lake. A few not as good memories... but that's fishing. I told someone the other day it can be a good frog lake too but I'm not sure he believed me..?
Sure is good that we have lots of choices in the Great Lakes state!
I was going to hit Muskegon on Saturday, the Grand on Sunday, and tourney on Fremont for Monday. Now that I know the Power Pole will be on Muskegon, I guess I will avoid that lake for the day. Maybe I will hit Crockery instead.
Kzoo river!

Figured... but just in case you had a new 'secret' I thought I'd ask! ;D
Secret lake close to Fremont on Saturday, and Sunday. Fremont on Monday for the open. Can't wait for Laborday...my favorite tournament of the year! ;)

I haven't been out there yet this year but I'm going to try to in the next couple of weeks. How is the water level out there? Can you still navigate up the river?
Last time I was out there you had to be on plane and know exactly where you're going, even then it's still a river and they change so much... not necessarily worth the risk. It sucks there in the fall anyways... :)

I might hit that "secret" lake this Monday morning... we'll see. ;D
Someday, I will get to more secret lakes. It sure isn't easy living in a state with 11,000 lakes 36,000 miles of river surrounded by the biggest freshwater system in the world!! But I will make the best of it! ;D
Gonna be at my cottage in traverse city on bass lake. But gonna probably hit the bay or one of the many others.. Any suggestions? I know a couple good ones
One of my Weekends to work... >:(

Open invite any time still stands! All you need is a ride to GR and a couple of rods. I should have the rest. ;D
Yeah. I know. If they could just shut off the Internet for 8 or 12 hours... that would help as long as it was prescheduled. ;D
Hello BIGSHOW. I'll be trying to land ,one of those Clam Lake muskeyes this weekend. Any suggestions on what to use, or were to start?
Big bear in joburg.

Call me if you need a spot to park. Perhaps even a back seat-er?!
