Move went fine. The new server is much faster. Which is good!

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.

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.

Went up north, north of Baldwin, to my cabin and on Saturday walked out on the dock and had a largemouth on a bed. Fanned gravel and was chasing other fish away. Spring is here! Naw, we're in Michigan so winter may be back tomorrow, but summer is coming and I hope it gets here before $3.50/gal.  gas.

That bass is definitely an optomist...

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.

Walked across the road this AM to look at the lake and found 2 new beds started and about a 5lb bass swimming back and forth in front of the dock.
Remember you don't quit fishing when you get old, you get old when you quit fishing

I caught bedding fish in a tourney this weekend; they were locked in. All males though.

I spent a few hours on Lake Maxinkuckee yesterday and found over 100 beds in the channels. All largemouth, and they were locked on. I couldn't hardly believe my eyes. I have the best self control, I didn't fish for them... ??? I have a tourney there Sunday. If I can get in those channels before most others, I will have a gooooood time!  ;D

Hope you get a low draw.

I went for a little boat ride yesterday.  The water in protected areas was over 60 degrees!  The fish have gone to the bank!  I did not fish, but the fish were very visable.  The dark brown steel sea walls hold a lot of heat!  Please leave a few for me, I have to work until 3:00 PM. :(

Good luck today guys!
