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.

The 2014 TBF of Michigan State Championship (adult) is scheduled for Sunday, August 24. Launching out of Elizabeth Park on the Lower Detroit River. All waters open except an off limits immediately around the boat ramp to be announced at the pre-tournament meeting.

Entry fee is $100 per angler which includes $5 towards big bass. Each club must send an equal number of boaters and non-boaters. This is a draw tournament with each angler getting 50% of the day for travel to and from their chosen fishing spots and the front of the boat. Anglers work out the details between themselves.

There will be a mandatory registration and pre-tournament meeting following the BFL at Elizabeth Park on Saturday, August 23. Registration runs from 5PM until 6:30PM. Everyone must register by 6:30PM. The mandatory pre-tournament meeting starts at 7PM.

Tournament and livewell checks at Elizabeth Park start at 5AM Sunday morning until 6:15AM. Tournament launch is 6:30AM. Everyone must be checked back in by 2:30PM Sunday.

I believe the 2014 state team would go to the 2015 TBF Northern Divisional Championship somewhere in Illinois.

I picked up a flyer at the Novi show that said the MI State Championship was in July on St. Clair.  So I'm assuming the August 24th tourney isn't happening?

mikesmiph

Bill, the date on the flyer was wrong. We ended up throwing them all away

djkimmel

Don't know how that flier got printed that way? Caused a little confusion. I didn't even notice it the first couple days of the show. I think we are back on August 24 but not sure which end of the system yet. Waiting to hear from Dave Reault about what they've worked out. Might be Detroit River but I guess either is still possible.

nitroderrek

it is conflicting with our club tournament date
I guess nobody in our club knew of the date (ocba)
thanks, derrek

djkimmel

I have not heard of a change but was told they just had a board meeting a few days ago. After I get home from the Ultimate Sport Show I'll check with Dave and Matt for any updates.

Yes. I sent email out to The Bass Boys club members a few days ago but I just realized I screwed up and left your email off the list dartag?!? Sorry about that. I will send you the details I have so far in just a few minutes.

I do not have the fishing hours for Sunday, August 24th yet. I don't have meeting details though I assume there will be a required meeting Saturday evening after the BFL also at Elizabeth Park. I don't have a final entry deadline but I'm collecting my club entries right now - http://www.greatlakesbass.com/bassboys/tbbsc.html

I will provide details here and to club member as soon as I get them.
