I'm not trying to rush winter. I'm sure some semblance of winter is on the way. That means we are approaching the 2026 Ultimate Sport Show Tour - the three biggest fishing and outdoor sport shows in Michigan!

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.

WELL if anyone visits this site much i am sure they have read my huge problem with the grand river lol

only weighing in 4 pounds at the tourney and just plain struggling bad lol

i will be back with vengince  next year lol

i fished tourneys in florida for the last 6 years and i am 25 years old so i have something to learn still forsure.we ended up around 20th overall in the shoreline tourny this year struggling bad at white lake and grand river, got a 11th place and a 13th and a 15th i do believe and then the horrable like 33rd and a mid 20's finish at white lake took us out of the running for the classic by about 10 points.


but we are off to fish the river tommorow and a few more times b4 the water cools and the get out of the summer pattern. at hamlin i started getting this michigan fishing down a little bit i caught probably 10 keepers myself and my smallest fish was 1.65  but the one tourny my dad(my partner) didnt catch atleast a 3lb fish couldnt get anything in the boat over a 1lb had to be hamlin lol. so i hope next year now that i have fished every lake on the tourny 3 times or better we can get in the classic.

i mean i got into the classic every year in florida with over 140 boats per tourny
trust me when i say fishing florida is wayyyyyyyyy different then fishing michigan lol i could take a seinko and a frog and only have 2 rods with those baits  and bring in a 20lb sack with ease!! i mean much ease.

there was days up here i couldnt fish my seinko cause of wind or days i couldnt fish my frog or i could fish it but not catch anything of any size


if anyone has any pointers on those 2 lakes now that the season is done and were not competing and we are fishing a nbaa or bbt next year forsure not fishing shoreline maybe there is someone who can help me out.

i am a younger man and i do plan on atleast making a run to try and qualify for some big tournys one day in the future i DO HAVE TO GET THIS NORTHERN FISHING FIGURED OUT!! I NEED TO GET MY CAROLINA RIG FISHING DOWN,ALONG WITH JIG FISHING AND CRANKBAITING!!
i am usually real confident in throwing a red eyed shad when my 2 weapons of choice dont work in florida  but only one lake up here i have got into some good fish with it?? i see KVD on tv throw that thing here in michigan and smoke em on it.


well anytips?
