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.

Quote from: djkimmel on July 27, 2012, 03:01:04 AMOh, you might use Franks.

I now also don't have a truck..........

Luckily, my brotha Genie made a shrewd trade of my 09 Pontiac Vibe for his Chevy Truck and big ole Skeeter bass boat so I could still make the 3-day gig, albeit without not a single minute of sleep the first night...

I think that means you DO have a boat ? confirm ? If so we could try to get more coanglers, OR I could come up and drag your boat and leave Franks boat. Lemme know. I would rather not borrow, however, IT is last years champion boat !!!!!

My boat is still in 'rehab.' I traded Genie's truck and boat back for my 09 Vibe since it gets way better gas mileage when I don't have a boat to haul! I might already have a boater partner but he has not confirmed yet. I forgot we had talked about fishing this quite some time ago but he hadn't got permission yet. I will check again and try to get a decision from him, then let you know.

Wouldn't happen to be someone I know, would it?

djkimmel

Shoot!?! Might be 2 someones?!? Uh oh...

I really need to take more notes...  :-\'

How late do you fish?

Who is bringing weigh in equipment? I don't have access to any anymore at this moment.

got me a brand spanking new frog today, oh yea  8)

djkimmel

I might have a partner. A 'new' guy. He has kids so I'm waiting for him to confirm his taking kids places schedule before I know for sure.

Me not making it last year had nothing to with the weather. I wish it was just that. I'm not that kind of wimp though I don't miss that part of tournaments - making the run no matter what even if every fiber in my being was screaming 'ARE YOU INSANE?!? STAY ON SHORE!!!'

I have always (mostly) drawn the line with lightning though.
