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.

If you missed the 2012 Detroit Lions and Kevin VanDam charity fishing tournament on Kent Lake - now you can get a pretty good idea what FUN you missed thanks to the, as usual, excellent work by our resident video guru - cameraguy!



What a fun day for everyone. Lots of GreatLakesBass.com members fishing and in attendance. Lots of professional anglers, TV show hosts, Bassmaster staff and an owner, and of course, Coach Schwartz and his Detroit Lions players.

Check out the video. I hope you like it!

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 want to thank all Greatlakesbass.com members who participated in this charity event, especially Don Watts (LGMTH), who drove a gaggle of photographers and me, all over the lake. Don graciously accepted being a media boat after his Detroit Lions partner was paired up with someone else.

If any of you make an appearance in the video, please mention it here. If there is a 2nd Annual KVD/Detroit Lions tournament, hopefully we will be able to cover it and talk to some you on camera.

I did see quite a few GreatLakesBass.com members and relatives in the video. I think you at least caught just about everyone for a second or two, or more.

Thanks for putting me and my son in the video.  Glad we didn't break the camera.

No cameras were broke in the making of this video! I saw you in there pretty good! That was one of the best parts of the event - that you gave this fun day as a fishing present to your son and spent it with him!

I would try to name everyone off who I saw in the video but I'm sure to miss or forget someone, and I don't want to do that to anyone who participated! I didn't get to talk to everyone either and a few people who fished are members but I don't know their real name with their screen name.

You're welcome. But now that you mention the camera...  :P ;D
