Cass Lake the 21st?

If we go to Clair and trailer the boat on Ricks truck I will also help pay for gas. Joe is in as a boater so we have two boats and two nons wherever we go. Doesn't matter to me, you pick Chris  Just let us know when you've decided.

Sorry for the late post!   I can't make this one.  I've been up north for a few days and have been busy since returning.  I just took the boat in yesterday to see what kind of damage I got from the oil line breaking during the TBF Championship.  I won't hear anything for a couple of days.  I hope you guys wack'em out there!

It looks like Kent would be the most central, with Luke coming from Lansing. Is that O.K. with everybody? Does anybody have Joe's number to call him? I'm not sure if he checks on here. Now, what time? Park opens at 6.

Word to the wise.  This morning on St. Clair was crazy.  At one point heading to the Belle Hump area, we were in 5 footers, spearing, getting soaked etc.  By the time we hit the shipping channel, we took a sharp left and opted to fish the channels instead.  Once we got into calm water we were able to fish, but the channels are not fishing strong at the moment.  For a whole day's work, we only managed 2 keepers (best 4.8.lbs, the other 3).  My friend's boat did manage a few more and we boated a lot of small largemouth.  All in all a pretty tough day out there.  Word has it that tomorrow will be just like today.

My advice would be to go to Kent.  In fact, if the wind is this bad tomorrow, I may just join you guys out there.

Well it sounds like Cass is out for tomorrow ? Can everyone just confirm where they are fishing tomorrow so noone is waiting on a dock ! 

I believe Jack and I were going to try St Clair tomorrow (maybe even Erie !) if Tom is going to be there ? Where are you guys putting in ?

[Revtro]

I'm thinking of putting in at the Hall Road (Selfridge) Ramp.  If the lake is fishable, then I'd fish the Northern end of Anchor Bay, then work into the channels to some of those largemouth spots so that the guy I'm taking out can catch a bunch.

It looks like Kent I guess. As for a time, it doesn't matter to me. Should we just say the East launch between 6:30 and 7?

[Dropshot]

Sorry all, but I was getting the boat ready tonight and noticed some milky colored fluid leaking from the lower unit. Looks like the seals may be bad. So it looks like I'll have to pass on this one.

We are going to launch from the East launch at Kent, at 7:00 AM. 

Chris is going to hook up w/ Luke in Brighton.  They are going to be in Chris' boat. 

I'm bringing my boat,and as of right now, I'm riding alone.  Joe if you want to hook up w/ me, I'm IM'ng you my cell number.  Just give me a holler, and you're more than welcome.

Anybody else, that wants to come along, come on down.

Rick, Luke, and I were the only ones today. Kent was really tough with Luke catching the only fish of the day. He was a biggun though at 3 1/2 lbs. We fished deep, shallow, and anywhere in between and had a tough time. They really whacked the weeds over there.
Around noon we all gave up on that lake. Rick headed home and Luke and I went over to Thompson. We both caught a good number of bass. The strange thing was catching some small bass in 12-15 FOW. What were they doing out there in my bigger bass spot? How dare they?
We didn't get off there until after 6, my wife finally called to see when I was coming home.
It was great fishing with you two guys! It is great to see a younger man like Luke has the patience to get through a tough summer (lack of) bite at Kent and to hang out so long at Thompson. We fished it during the toughest time, 1:30-6 P.M. so I know there will be some good weights tomorrow in the ABA.

Hey guys, I'm glad to see a couple of you made it out.  Sorry to hear Kent wasn't so great.  To all of our guys in the EBA, don't be discouraged.  There is usually an event or two where guys can't make it.  It's usually right about this time of year.  Last year at the end of July, things picked up and participation was back up like in the spring.  So hopefully we can all make the next event on St. Clair with Wayne Carpenter.  Should be a good one. 

If anyone wants to have a "make up day", we can all go fishin' next weekend.  I'm up for it if you guys are.  I'll be fishing anyway.

Joe, sorry to hear about your lower unit, but maybe this will be a good chance for you to ride along with one of us other boaters and get to know each other a bit.  I'd enjoy that.
