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.

I think the tournament angler genes are just tooo strong in these ones! Not too hard to guess though... and maybe a little mystery is fun this time of year...?

Now that winter looks like it may make a brief appearance and bass season is closed... all that's left is to come to Novi Saturday morning 1/13/07 to the TBF meeting at 9:30 AM to hear David Simmons, and then see the rest of the Ultimate Fishing Show!!!

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.

Pic #3 is a little confusing. I am older and the eyes are starting to go, but I didn't know Tim McGraw was with you guys.  Man Jeff.  Send that one into a contest or something.

Nice fish btw.  Today and tomorrow look like another couple more nice days.  This is January right?

Well I don't know about Tim Mcgraw, but maybe some race fans will agree with me that he looks exactly like Tony Stewart. Maybe it's just me?? Nice fish, I like the looks of that smallie  ;D

Good thing for Jeff that the picture didnt pick up all the grey in that beard.  Tim McGraw?  Maybe.  But im leaning more towards Willie Nelson.

Well I can honestly say that those largemouth are typical "Hot Pond" Bass.  Even the little ones are fat.  And yes they eat like that year round.  I have never known the water temperature to fall below 50 degrees in there.  That smallmouth is typical of the Hot Pond.  As a 20 year veteran of fishing that Hot Pond, the smallies are usually caught at the mouth or way in the back by the discharge in the current.  There aren't a lot but they are usually good ones.  Nice catchin fellas and I am glad the info I gave Skip got you all in there safely and home safely.  I wish I could have joined you.
