I'm disappointed to see now that House Natural Resources and Tourism Committee Chair Representative David Martin has added those very bad commercial fishing bills HB 5801 and 5802 to an upcoming committee hearing on Wednesday, May 20, 2026 at noon.

The poorly written, damaging to Michigan Sport Fishing commercial fishing bills have been introduced again. State House Bills 5801 and 5802, introduced by Rep. Dave Prestin and Rep. Jason Morgan, have been assigned to the House Committee on Natural Resources and Tourism.

This is a tale of two lakes. Intertwined lakes, in Barry County, Michigan. Where somehow the water has gone away. Upper and Lower Crooked Lakes, both near and dear to me, are suffering from the lowest water levels I've seen in the 35+ years I've been fishing them.

So I have been looking around the internet and some of the things I see done to big bass make me feel sick inside. I am glad that Sure-Life made a great video on proper fish care. The proper holding of bass is also discussed. If you have been at D and R Sports lately and looked in the fish tank I think one of the big bass in there fell victim to improper holding and his jaw became dislocated or broken because he can not close his mouth. Lane and Tony know a lot about fish care and are very passionate about taking care of the fish. It would be really beneficial to follow what they have to say and watch the whole video. I have a Skeeter with a livewell I consider to be very, very small and have been following their guidelines for the past couple of years and the amount of dead fish I weigh in has almost gone to 0 thoughout the year. My non-boaters in last years State Championship at Charlevoix could tell yu that each day I attempted to fizz my largest smallmouth through the mouth and the fish both jolted and tey were bleeding so bad I was sure they were dead, however I added Please Release Me and instantly the wounds clotted. Paul Ellias also became a part of the staff in return for product because part of his recrd setting catch was bleeding so bad from his crankbait they had to shut the camera off but he added the formula directly to the wound and his fish was released live at the weigh-in in great shape. At the end of the video they tell about their personal background and how much they have researched to provide the geatest possible care for bass, and all fish in general.
