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.

There sure are some uptight people on that "other" site.  Funny thing is... it's never the bass guys.   :)

I sure like it here better!!  Bass guys rule!!!   8) 8)

The "other" site.....if its the one named after a lake...i agree.

djkimmel

Not sure which one he means though it may be the one named after a big lake AND state?!? Maybe cabin fever is already setting in?!?

I have always tried to keep GreatLakesBass.com a 'safe' haven from those other sites! Not always succeeded but more often than not I think. Keeps the numbers down a little but I guess I'm not into Springer-type ratings.

Once again, thanks to all of you who do your best to make my job so much easier! THANK YOU!!

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 used to. But then I think I read them all and started over at the beginning again. So I moved on...

I wasn't very popular over there for a while either back around 04-05 or so. I may have been called names... don't remember for sure now.

I think I pm'd a couple people over there last year who I know are members there but not here. Good to see a few more bass anglers over there slowly bringing some of the others along. Better slow than never.

I agree! No sense in making another website to do what is already out there!! Let's do something different! Let's have fun and talk about fishing!

Do they include showing you his 'IQ' ?? ;D

Some people haven't caught on to the 'life is too short' philosophy yet...

There should be no enemies among hunters and fishers. That concept should be easy to grasp!
