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.

Got this one fishing Big Whitefish Lake Monday morning.  She dove under the boat and actually jumped on the other side... behind me!  What a blast!

Wow! Great fish. Looks like it's in great condition as well. Nice markings.

Yeah, on my scale it went 4.92.  On your scale it would have been 5.15 for sure!

so what you're saying is, that if you added a 2oz bag, it would have been 4.92 still + the weight of the bag?

No... I'm saying that compared to others, the Monday night scale seems to weigh and ounce or so heavier than some other scales I bring fish to on a weekly basis.  No big deal... I like a heavy scale!
