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.

   Looking forward to a two week vacation to Hamlin Lake starting Saturday.  Gonna get a little golfing in and family stuff, but if anyone is planning on fishing or wants to fish there, message me.  :)

Have a good time.  The mountain biking, Hiking and Geocaching in that area is pretty good if you are looking for something fun to do off the water with the family...

My favorite lake. Just got done fishing it for 4 days.

I will tell you this, there are big bass much shallower than you'd think right now. Enjoy your time!

Don't know what golf course you plan on hitting, but if you haven't played Hemlock just north of town you should give it a try. It's very challenging and scenic for a public course and the green fees were quite reasonable when I played it three years ago.

What the...?!?

THIS ISN'T greatlakesgolf.com!?! Quick! Someone post a fishing report!

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.

   I've seen a overhead map of the course.  It has TONS of sand.  I'd be in serious trouble, but thanks.  :)  But you didn't see me post about golf......   ;D

  It's this hobby which is hard to enjoy because of all the time spent fishing.  :)

  Yeah, I fished the PM first full day I was here and had the same problem with the pike.  Think at least 4 of them have tubes in their throats.    >:(

Haha. Sounds typical there. How was the bass fishing?

Firefighter Jeff

I caught plenty, but more real small ones than I can ever remember catching.

BIGSHOW

Same here. Tons of bass around 14-16". They seemed to fight hard though. When I did boat the pike i'm surprised they didn't have a mouthfull of plastics. Cause I lost a bunch setting hooks
