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.

I heard skip has a big bungee cord back there strung between two trees and he snaps himself out like a giant sling shot!?!

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.

Every fish I weighed on my scale were about a half pound more than the board estimated. So if the 6.4 was from the board - it was probably  7lb on a digital scale.

Once they get that big the scale on the board is pretty close.  Give or take a few ounces depending on girth and spawn, but still relatively close.  Seems like when I asked Bobber he said it went 6, don't know if that was scaled or not.

Lets get those waypoints!
Unless you got a flatbottom jetboat or are plum crazy you don't want those waypoints.  From what I hear you have to get your boat up to 100 mph and then launch off a ramp built out of old VW's while trimming the motor up, then barrel roll the boat through a ring of fire and torpedo under the water when you land to clear the razor wire running over the water. :o :o :o  And that's just to get back there  :o :o :o  Coming out is a whole other challenge with the fire breathing dragon that's mad at you for catching his supper and all!!!!

LMAO Herman  That's why I'd never fish those areas !!!

He may have even used brainwashing!!! Bobber might truly believe that's where they were...
