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.

How about a couple of the "other things" Mojo seems to be able to arrange???   ::)   ;D

Sorry I couldnt make it over guys, I have been doing some winter art work - This one is called Morning Hunt :




Stay thirsty my friends !!   ;)
Thanks Dan for bringing year round Catch and Release to Michigan

Thanks to everyone that came out and made this possible. Cy did a great job planning it out and Dan had a great venue. That was a perfect way to break up the off season.

Turnout was way bigger than the east side meet and there was WAY more gear.  Picked up a couple clone frogs for a buck apiece.  Can't complain.  One of these times I'll remember Genie's name...

I thought Genie's name is Genie?!? ???

Glad you all had fun! I love to see stuff like this happen! LOVE IT! I do want to make some of these extra curricular events. This past weekend if I hadn't been in Novi at Outdoorama, I would have been at the Classic rooting for Great Lakes tournament anglers (and a few others)! Maybe next time.

I have way too much tackle for one person to ever get to. If I can find it?? I may have to do some type of marketing East/West extra tackle targeting maybe so I can bring stuff to each event.

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.

Thanks to all came out to the swap meet.  I think the event went really well and everyone seemed to be pleased.  I think we will look to have another on in the fall maybe get some hunting stuff in there this time.  Let me know if anyone has any ideas.

It was a blast!  Lots of good stuff and it's always good to get to talk to people you haven't seen in a while.
