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.

Remember you don't quit fishing when you get old, you get old when you quit fishing

We need a better Public transportation system...If I could take a Bus to work every day and it was economical and convenient I would do it in a heartbeat..

How hard does the wind have to be blowing for me to get on plane???

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.

Sorry about that, I guess you can't belive everything you hear or see. In 1981 thru 1984 there was two fellows in Phx, Az test driving a H2 fueled car at the Phoenix International Raceway doing laps to make up miles for their road test. They had to use the raceway for testing because the state of Arizona did not have a way to get highway use tax from H2 so they were not allowed to road the vehicle like Ford, GM, IH, Toyota and all the others with prooving grounds in AZ. I worked as a paramedic at the time and they were not allowed on the track without us being there. From talking with them, at the time they said they were using the same systems as LP. As far as the buddy in Saudi well take it for what it was worth.
Put me in for the sail and I want the skull and cross bones on my sales also. Maybe I could get Johnny Depp to sit in as co-angler. he could CO for me but the boss will want him to CO for her, so I'll be out on the bank again.

$200 entry fee(or higher $1500 to $3000), $300 per day or $600 for a longer run for $2000 or $5000 purse or much less for the smaller tournaments. Gosh I sure am glad this is a hobby. Catch and release. Can't even eat our catch. Looks like I'll be buying more of the "Food Source" baits so I don't have to stop at Subway on my way to the lake. Free packets of catsup and I'm good to go.

Don't forget the $34/gallon for outboard oil if you have an Optimax!   >:( 

It is getting rediculous!

Bloomer

It just occurred to me that if they could design a methane powered outboard, most of us here would have no fuel challenges whatsoever.  At least that's been my experience fishin' with many of ya'll.   :P  FREE GAS FOR EVERYONE!

I don't know if you guy's have a Krogers grocery store up there, but they have a deal at their gas stations that when you spend so much in grocery's, you get 20 cents per gallon off. Used to be you could get up to 50 cents per gallon off but they changed it in January. I still get my 50 cents off through the end of the month, up to 6 gas purchases, and it really helps.
