UPDATE 5/31/2026: At least 6 Michigan State Representatives have removed their sponsorship from HB 5801 and 5802. Your actions are having an impact! Thank you! There was discussion at the May 20 House Committee, but the bills remain in committee.

This is a tale of two lakes. Intertwined lakes, in Barry County, Michigan. Where somehow the water has gone away. Upper and Lower Crooked Lakes, both near and dear to me, are suffering from the lowest water levels I've seen in the 35+ years I've been fishing them.

Heard Gerald Swindel talking about this on the Bassmaster weigh in today.  I googled it and read the story.  Glad he is spreading the word.  I am sure the pres. is golfing and too busy to take care of this.

Good for him for trying to get the word out. It's so crazy things like this get ignored and we never hear about it, pray for this solider and his family and hopefully there is good news one day

I've seen quite a few news reports over time about this situation. Wish there was an easy way to find an address and go get him. Send in a drone and you blow him up too so that can't be the answer.

I don't think he has been forgotten by the people who have any chance at getting him back. The main problem is he is being held by a bunch of evil people who think they hate a bunch of other people they don't really know (you and me).

I hope one or way or another they get him back. The odds are not as good as they could be considering the hate and radicalness of the people who have him but there have been some recoveries even years later. Everytime I see news about him - sometimes just another report of a sighting or reference made about him by some of the radicals - I pray for him and his family, hoping the people trying to get him back have the patience and skills, whatever it takes, to get him back alive.

Help stop invasive spcies. Don't move fish between unconnected bodies of water. Clean, drain and dry your boat before launching on another water body.
