2008 DK Fall Open

[djkimmel]

not a ton of parking i don't think - maybe 10-15 spots. Been a while since i've been there. i don't want to throw a wrench in the works.. if shooting for a "true" west side outing maybe something like White would be more appropriate... its been taking like 16-18lbs to win there all summer.

That would probably be more than enough parking, but it is a long ways for many. Maybe later? (And maybe you and I ought to go out there for a photo op sometime ?? just to catch myself up on the cool lake - I enjoyed fishing there the few times we went despite the long drive that I usually had trouble staying awake from on the way home...)

I'm leaning towards White, Hardy or Mona right now if I can get enough participation. Probably a Saturday from the looks of the poll. I'll have some options up by the end of the week.

just fyi mona has a bad toxic algae bloom in it right now..not sure how it's affecting the fishing.  If you do white, I'd like to see no running, open to the pier heads only....just my 2 cents...that lake fishes great anyways.

I wouldn't want running for any new anglers and for the small number of boats we'd have and for the purpose of a tournament like this.

went to mona on sunday caught 16 pounds of smallies.....one nice largie......algie was lifted..this lake is good.....maybe muskegon with some running.....short ride to mona if I can get in.

I like Ovid, but would prefer to do the DK somewhere else.  I can't stand the idle only speed limit on Ovid.  It makes for a long day.  I was just there BTW and got one 15" Largemouth for an entire morning's work.  It was S L O W.  But I'll show up wherever it is held.

Have never fished that side of the state so this is gonna b a learning experience for me.

Just talked to Skeeterman and he said a few weeks ago Muskegon and White both had the algae on it as well, pretty nasty too he said.  I'm  game for wherever whenever, just let me know in advance so I can clear it with work and wife.
