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.

Can anyone give a good recommendation on a fiberglass repair shop in the Grand Rapids area? 

I have some warranty work (outside of warranty, actually, but the great folks at Ranger are taking care of me :) ) I need to get a quote for the work and haven't used anyone in this area before.

Thanks in advance!

Call D&R sport to get the number to DOn Stevens shop I belive it is Cooper Boat Repair. He is the best I have ever seen he dose great work. He is outside of Kalamazoo.

Call Cooper Boat Repair.  They are awesome!!!  I had my work done there this spring and I am very very happy.  Don and his guys are the best.  I would give you him number but I don't have it handy.  D&R will have it or you can look it up.

Thanks, guys!  I'll give them a call tomorrow. 

Actually, I'm pretty sure Cooper has had my boat before.  When I originally ordered it from D&R in 2004 there was some minor fiberglass damage in transit that had to be repaired.  I dropped the boat off with them and I'll bet they used him to get it fixed.

Don repaired by hull too after my last motor decided to fall off. Long time bass tournament angler (Kevin Van Dam's mentor). Hey, while you're at it, mention the members at GreatLakesBass.com recommended him to you.

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 sure will, Dan.  I called him already this morning.  Don was out so I'm going to swing down there next week for the estimate.

djkimmel

Good luck with that - if anyone can get you done fast and back out fishing, it would be Don.
