Upper and Lower Crooked Lakes Extreme Low Water
Wed, 25 Mar 2026 20:27:21 +0000
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.

   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...

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

What is this "golf" that you speak of?  Is it a new scented plastic?   ;D

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

Well at the pace we are on, it will be 104 here in MI on Sept 1. Trying to keep my focus on fishing longer this year. Figured you'd know who I was on here.  ;D

  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.    >:(

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
