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.

Kelvin, Welcome aboard..
How old are you???
You should look at joining a Bass Club...My Club in Davison, Team Bass is looking for new members and now is the time to come and check us out...You don't have to have a boat we are looking for Co-Anglers for our tournaments..Our next meeting is Oct 26th..
I will have to check, but I think our by-laws state that if you are HS age and stay in school membership is free or reduced by alot...You just have to make it to the meetings..
I think you have to be 16, but I will check on that if you are interested also...
There are also some great junior clubs in the area...
Here is our website
www.teambass.net

If you have any questions PM me...Alot of guys in our club and my fishing buddies are from the flint area...

 Hey buddy welcome aboard! I would definatly check out the bass clubs. Dont take the same road i took. Im a man of patience and persistence so i wouldnt fail. it was a long road and things are starting to fall into place! i started when i was 18 and now im 25 and pretty much done it all on my own! i wish this site was available when i started it would've been a huge help to point me in the right direction. but i will say this about the way i came up. if you can learn something everytime your on the water and just keep putting the pieces together youll find your niche. find a strength and fish to it! id suggest smallmouth! im a largemouth fisherman and pretty much learning a new game(with smallies) but a fish is a fish right they all need the same things. Just learn something everytime you put that boat in the water and try everything youve heard about till something FITS U!-skeeterman- pm me anytime if you have any questions or need any help.
NEVER GIVE UP!!!

Well... Kelvin is definitely a 'kid' at heart because he's extremely eager to learn, but he is a little older than a kid to some of you being in his early 20's (still will seem like a kid to some of us 'old farts' ;D !!)

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.

Some members will be at the Fall Open on Hardy tomorrow.  Stop over there if you are close and you can meet a dozen or so members.

No matter what his age Team Bass would be a good place for him to start...

hey moto, what kind of club we talking here.  myself and my partner have been fishing a few years and just got ourselves a new (old) but new to us boat, lol.  i know we are considering fishing tourneys next year, just checking our options.  send me a link or some info in a pm, would be greatly appreciated.

btw, welcome kelvin, since this is your post, lol, i am pretty new here also, but seems this is a good group to learn from.  i live in grand blanc, partner lives in swartz creek, we fish all over genessee and oakland county.  if you have a boat and wanna hook up sometime to check out some lakes, we would be more than happy to meet you somewhere and show you around.

Welcome Kelvin -

I also live in Davison. If your interested in a great draw trail I would recomend the ABA.

If your interestd I know a few boaters who are looking for a partener to team up with them this Sunday on Fenton & Ponemah lakes to fish the fall Hawg Hunt. This is fun event that has a solid turn out each year. The payout is big for a small local inland lake.
Anthony Adams - As your director I believe in promoting the enjoyment of fishing to all. I encourage good sportsmanship and preserving of natural resources. I strongly encourage all individuals regardless of age, race, or gender to be more involved in the world of fishing
