Yesterday at the Natural Resources Commission meeting in Lansing, science prevailed thanks to many, many persons who took the time to write in, and especially those who showed up to speak before the Commission on Commissioner Walters’ amendment to close bass fishing on the Inland Waterway and Black Lake from May 1 until the third Saturday in June.

Looks like I should be good to go. I was able to pick up an overtime shift last night, so I shouldn't have to worry about being forced anytime soon. I am also off Friday if anyone is planning on fishing that day and has an open seat I would be more than willing to chip in some gas money.

I hope the water conditions are like they were yesterday. We didn't catch hundreds of them like people have reported, but our best 5 went 25-15. It was a fun day.

Addicted to fishing.  All the time, any species, anywhere!!  Especially in West Michigan!!!

Due to my boat STILL being in the shop, and a few other frustrating circumstances, I am going to have to pull my name off the list this year.  Hope you guys have a good time with great weather.  Kind of ironic...this is the first year the season opened up early, and I am getting my latest start ever.  I'll be lucky if my first line is in the water by mid May.

I will be there - riding along with CMack and my son Luke - so 3 in our boat.

How much money should a non-boater kick in for gas? This is my first tournament. Thanks.  :)

dartag

20.00 would be a good offering.  You could IM you partner and see if he would like you to bring anything.  Make sure you bring a rain suit. Even if it doesn't rain it can be cool out there this time of year.

If you need tackle or anything ask any of us at the ramp.  We can help you out.

For those new, and a reminder to the veterans, our BEFORE and AFTER PARTY is a blast ! To prevent 20 folks from bringing cookies and beer, we have a list of needs. Please go to the OFFICIAL PARTY link and add your name and what you can contribute. Much appreciated  ;D

Send me a PM or comment on the PARTY LIST Link on your contribution to our gathering. Lets get rid of all of these "?? "s

;D
Thanks Dan for bringing year round Catch and Release to Michigan

djkimmel

I got all the updates and will update the list in a few minutes.

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.
