Favorite Lake

Lake St. Clair.  Hands down.  I love that lake. 

Last year for inland lakes though I gotta admit Woodland was a lot of fun.

Union or Cass. 

Union because i live on it and fish many days a year. although Union is my worst tourny lake.  hope to change that this year.
Cass because the water and bottom structure are pretty much like Union.  Plus they both have lots of Smallies.

i would say it is woodland lake because its close to home and Ive had success out their.

This is really a hard one for me and I have resisted commenting, because if I'm on the water anywhere .... that place is usually my favorite.  My mom use to sit me on the curb with a stick, string and a button and I would sit fishing in the storm grate forever. Good training for fishing out of the back seat. However, I really enjoy Duck Lake in Interlochen. Hamlin Lake in Ludington is also very hard to beat. Going over to St. Clair and Erie I classify as an adventure, and I look forward with great anticipation to each trip even though I sometimes get a little panicked when the waves get big. Portage Lake in Onekama can be my favorite at times especially in May and June. The Torch Chain, Burt and Mullet, GT Bay, Long Lake, Manistee, man I can't really pick. Then there is Lake Tahoe, where my two sons live. How does one choose!  If I really have to I guess Big Bass Lake north of Baldwin is probably my all time favorite because I have spent the last 20+ years there sitting in my cabin watching the seasons go by.

  Ahh tough one here id have to break this one down. Since i fish a bunch of different areas. In Michigan id say its a tie between Muskegon and white, with Pentwater a close one when the time is right there, its a toad factory. Maxinkuckee lake here in indiana is a blast not toad smallies but a ton of keepers. and then my all time favorite lake is Table Rock you got it all there largeheads,smallies, and spots all biggns too.

I'm surprised to see so many lakes and no mention of Grand....   Wow.

Grand lake is smallie heaven, it takes a 4 pound average to even think of winning up there in the fall.  And in the spring?  Forget about it.  Pack some bandages, you'll need them for your thumb.

Honorable mentions:  Black, Mullet & Douglas

Most interesting:  Wixom.  So much fishable water, miles and miles of banks to explore.  Any pattern you can think of.
