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.

Not much of a report, but since I went out I'll give the details.

I just got out this afternoon around 3 to give the used boat I bought a shake down.  Boat ran fine, but was hard starting, so I'll need to address that.  Anyway... I wasn't out to fish, but I couldn't resist at least wetting a line for about 20 minutes before I needed to head in.

Water color: Green
Visibility: 2+ ft.
Water temp: 47 degrees

I drifted in from 9 FOW to start.  Tossed a jerkbait- no followers, nothing.  Decided to slow it way down with the poor water clarity and tossed a tube for 10 minutes and landed a 3lb smallie pretty quick.  It came in 6.7 FOW. 

That's it.  Like I said, I wasn't out fishing really...just test driving the boat.  But for 20 minutes, to end up with a decent fish, I was happy with that for my first time on the lake in 2 years.

It should get a lot better "Real soon"  ;)

I got your text. I had a long hard day and was not able to respond or call. We will hook up sometime next week if that works for you... I have your tube heads in my vehicle. If your fishing Sunday, I should be out with Dan Kimmel, If he don't back out on me.  :P I could meet you on the water or at the ramp.

Consider the bass warmed up real well! :D

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.
