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.

Had a great time once again, it was definetly better than the duck hunting yesterday. I really enjoyed the opportunity to meet some more people from GLB.  I liked Ovid, think I'll be back for sure (no jet skis or ski boats was nice).

Good luck up north!

You're very welcome and thanks for that last keeper with ONE MINUTE TO GO!!!!

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.

Hey... You guy's were'nt using that slickfish lure were you? They looked kinda used when you handed them out yesterday.

Durand Dan

Great time! I really enjoyed fishing with Ryan.  8) Too bad we figured out a pattern late in the day.  :)

Thanks Dan! You are most kind.
Great to see everyone.
See you all in the spring or at the fishing shows this winter.

What's with the news these days on the TV and the radio. Can't find the truth amongst the lies. Some talking head that claims to live their life in a better way, says I have to compromise. But now there's something on the rise. Truth has opened up my eyes. There's no running from your dirty lies. You can't avoid the truth. I'll no longer close my eyes.

Thanks for hosting another fun DK Open, Dan!  I look forward to fishing them again as long as they aren't on the Dead Sea,  I mean Lake Ovid. 

I also had a fun day Dan (DuranDan) even though the first four hours were incredibly slow, but atleast we managed a couple.  Thanks again.

No more Lake Ovid for a while... you should try it in June though. Or July. Or May. Or August.

Well you guys were lucky this year. . .  Jack and I had some big Lake Ovid Bass blow up on some frogs.  I had a 4 and 5 pounder knock my frog 3 feet into the air.  If I could've connected with just one of those fish it would've been an interesting finish.  Had a great time Jack sorry those fish were not eating the frogs that well.

Thanks again Dan!  It is always a blast to fish the DK Opens.  If we go to Lake Ovid next year put me with Vince so I can show him how to fish his home waters in the season of fall ;)

Big thanks Dan for all you do to make the opens what they are, and this board what it is.

So much water.  So many lures.  So little time.
