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.

Have to fish this lake 9-18 and have only this week to pre fish. looking for any help for this time of year. My partner for the tourney is out of town, I am going to try to make it out a couple times this week wed. fri. maybe, if anyone has any info or would like to ride along let me know pm or email. thanks

Never fished it, but I understand it is a good dock or deep edge of any green weeds lake mostly if you can find the weeds. Got some nice bass in it but it can be tough for some people. Long ways from my house or I'd of been there by now.

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.

From what I've read on this forum in the past, Paw Paw seems to be a good dock lake. I like docks, so that would be my jump off point. I have never fished the lake. TCook fishes it a lot though I think, but he may be the opposition. If I recall, that lake gives up some big uns. Good luck Rob.

its a great dock lake if you looking for different styles of docks to build at your lakefront property must be 4000 on that lake. cought some dinks and pike off of them. found a few that had the right stuff to spend some time on but just covering water and checking as much of the lake out as possible.

Seems like I had heard the lake was very weed-challenged. Seems like a common problem with lakes on the West side of the state. Lakes need some weeds. Too many people want a swimming pool, not a lake. Doesn't work for most lakes. That does mean the bass will just go to whatever cover is left.
