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.

Last night's show was one of my favorites from the Z man.  I knew some of the background to the show from what I'd learned in Novi.  That made it even better. 

Nice to watch a show where the host pounds em on a SE Michigan lake like that.  It's quite encouraging.  I have no idea what lake it was.  I don't need to.  I won't even try and guess.

It was encouraging because he was fishing there soon after a weed kill and he still caught em.
It was encouraging because of how built up that lake is and still has so many fish. 
It was encouraging when I saw the numbers of  large fish he pulled out of that lake. 

So much water.  So many lures.  So little time.

I didn't recognize it either.  We have a ton of amazing lakes around here. After tournament season last year I went out with a couple members to 3 private lakes we rotated between.  We started to think catching 50 fish wa a really bad day.  Most of those lakes have tons of huge houses around them but no pressure at all

I caught the show this morning, and it is OFF THE HOOK.  I am only slightly disappointed that he let the cat out of the bag about Bluegills.  So many MI fisherman miss that, and to me it is one of the most critical summer patterns that we have.

Well, good anglers should be always be aware of the 3 things bass need - spawning areas, habitat and forage. Find those 3 things close together and there's a bunch of bass in the area!

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.

Looked like Lobdell Lake in Argentine

I need to get back to Lobdell Lake. That was my childhood bass training lake... Lots of great memories there over the years! That's what I love about fishing shows fishing the smaller inland lakes.

I got my PB Largemouth from that lake. Still a great lake to fish.

I agree, the perfect combo

djkimmel

That was fun. I've watched it 4 or 5 times now. I keep picking up things I missed. They make quite the pair!
