Move went fine. The new server is much faster. Which is good!

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.

I may try and drive up for the meeting and bring anyone that wants to ride along.  If you get any final details please post them.

There should be a new fisheries order recommendation out later this week.

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'm not much for coming up with something to say regarding things like this, but I went ahead and wrote an email to the NRC.  I think I made my point and I hope more people do the same.

Trying to combat misinformation and can't find the links. Where are the links to the studies that support option four that has everyone's peey pants in a bunch?

Here's the original document we turned in with some of the links to relevant bass studies.

Any word from the Grandville meeting today?

Try as I might I just haven't been able to make it to one of these this year.  Last night the landlord had to come over and do some repairs... and of course I had to be there.  Sucked.
Addicted to fishing.  All the time, any species, anywhere!!  Especially in West Michigan!!!

I had work come in I had to do. I had already talked to the MDNR Fisheries Division once yesterday so I stayed home and did the work for someone who needed it in a hurry. I hope someone made it and got some use out of it. It helps to get to know them, and have them get to KNOW YOU!
