I'm disappointed to see now that House Natural Resources and Tourism Committee Chair Representative David Martin has added those very bad commercial fishing bills HB 5801 and 5802 to an upcoming committee hearing on Wednesday, May 20, 2026 at noon.

The poorly written, damaging to Michigan Sport Fishing commercial fishing bills have been introduced again. State House Bills 5801 and 5802, introduced by Rep. Dave Prestin and Rep. Jason Morgan, have been assigned to the House Committee on Natural Resources and Tourism.

This is a tale of two lakes. Intertwined lakes, in Barry County, Michigan. Where somehow the water has gone away. Upper and Lower Crooked Lakes, both near and dear to me, are suffering from the lowest water levels I've seen in the 35+ years I've been fishing them.

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.
