Move went fine. The new server is much faster. Which is good!

I'm planning on moving to a new server within the next 2 to 3 weeks. Just a little friendly warning as there might be a few hours of odd behavior when the process starts. I will try to have it done at night or weekend.

I'm not trying to rush winter. I'm sure some semblance of winter is on the way. That means we are approaching the 2026 Ultimate Sport Show Tour - the three biggest fishing and outdoor sport shows in Michigan!

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.

Some guy named Mike Lohn with a Bullet Boat won with Brad. 12.8 think. They had a nice bag of largemouth.  Second was Jim Clauser and John Robidek.  Third was Scott Dobson and Kyle Green.  Steve Smith ( me ) and Doug Ratliff got fourth place money.   Doug Ratliff had big bass. A 4.1 smallmouth.

Best part of the day was 3-4 years ago Dough hooked a Big smallmouth.  I missed it with the net, it broke off.  He caught this one in almost exactly the same spot.   I was redeemed.

Yep    Funny I have thought about that fish every time I have fished Cass since then.  No I will think about Doug catching him when I go there.   :)

Always nice to hear a good fishing story... probably the SAME fish!! Haven't been to Cass in a while but it seemed like some of those fish live in the same place all or most of the year.

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.

Sounds like the same people are catching the best bass every fall now... someone needs to get in there and shake things up a little maybe...?

Congratulations 21XDC! Did you catch your fish on homemade lures?

Good luck is good luck. (But I also believe you can MAKE your own good luck in tournament fishing...)
