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.

Been the same for me in my limited experience there in the fall.

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 convinced that "Hardy" is Native American for "lake with many fish that will not bite".

I'm confident it is for "lake with many long skinny fish with teeth that like to steal expensive jerkbaits especially the first time you've ever used them anywhere and they still look really nice out of the box with no rust on the hooks yet"

or something like that...  :-\'

well, whatever you do - don't throw a freaking spinnerbait.

no exaggeration, i threw 50+lbs of pike over the side of the boat that day.

Don't throw a drop shot either... you might accidentally catch a bass!
Addicted to fishing.  All the time, any species, anywhere!!  Especially in West Michigan!!!

i had plenty of bass that would just hit the blades or follow it to the boat... kept changing things on the bait but they wouldn't commit... only reason i kept throwing it.
