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.

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.

I'm glad I've been finding some more steelhead, just have the itch to fish.
  ;D





Redbone

Nice fish! What did you catch him on?

jerkbait

I got both them on little cleos. I pretty much only use cleos, thundersticks, and spinners. They hit these lures so hard! I gave up years ago using flies...

Hope I can keep some action going til bass season opens.. Caught on a #6 panther Martin.

That sure looks like fun! Been a few years since I got out early in the year after steelies. I was never very good at flies either. Good thing they'll hit other stuff!

I still remember some of my early season river walleye fishing too I haven't done in a while. I remember one day in my formative years hammering smallies from shore in February while it was snowing on medium running crankbaits from an eddy I'd only caught walleye in before (back then all the 'bass experts' - writers in the 'big' magazines - told me bass were 'dormant' in cold water like that)... thinking if this happened to me now I'd be thrown in jail as a 'known' 'bass angler.' ;D Man, this closed season nonsense has to end... I just want to fish, and I never met a fish I didn't like. :) Good job.

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.
