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.

1/0 for the 4 inch and 2/0 for the 5s

bought some of these recently.  Going to give them a try this spring for sure.
Addicted to fishing.  All the time, any species, anywhere!!  Especially in West Michigan!!!

I"m like Bill I use the 3/8" shrink tubing.  I've found it works a lot better than the O rings.   

For a hook I use an Owner #1 or #2 Mosquito hook. 

This set up allows me to use hand pours and get a lot more fish from each one.  If the tubing affects the worms action at all the fish don't seem to care.


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