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'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.

Coming up to start practice this week and I am staying at the Sterling State Park....Question is the days I want to fish St Clair should I put in the river and drive up or is it better to trailer the boat up there?  If so what boat landings on the west shore do you recommend.  It looks to be a long drive is there anything up that way to stay over night for a few days if I choose too?

Thanks

There are a bunch of hotels/motels along 13 mile rd. in Roseville. The St. Jeans launch is in the upper end of the Detroit River but if you plan to fish mainly the mile road area I would launch at the DNR ramp at 15 1/2 mile on Jefferson, AKA the Clinton River cut-off. You can find directions and maps to the launches at: http://www.michiganbassfishingtour.com/Home/launch-sites

You can find a list of motels at: http://www.michiganbassfishingtour.com/Home/lodging

Good Luck

Don't drive your bass boat up the Detroit River and back on the weekend unless you have too! Boat traffic can make it extremely rough going through the monster mile - past the RenCen. The roads are a little less rough on your trailer than the water is on your boat.

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.
