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 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!

I bought the 1995 viper that was for sale on this forum! So excited for the ice to thaw! http://www.greatlakesbass.com/forum/index.php?topic=22686.0

Sweet! Congrats, again.  Mike was right.  That boat (and the trailer) are in really great shape for their age!

Wolfie729

Awesome congrats man hope you have a lot of fun on it!!

mikesmiph

You belong to us now. LOL. You are hooked and we will never let go. LOL, from fellow bass boat owners. Congrats Ross, looks like a sweet boat.

Enjoy it now, only a matter of time before you start buying new stuff for it; electronics, trolling motor, batteries, etc... Looking forward to seeing it at the MCBC tournaments.

Can't wait for a ride up on Big Bass. All the property owners will be cussing you out for going around the lake so fast. I'll probably be right behind you though. Will be nice to have someone else take a little of the heat :D. Hopefully this snow will melt. BTW what is happening to Spartan basketball??? They need to get it in gear.

Congrats on the "new" ride! Welcome to the Viper family. That 188D should run well with the 200 EFI.

Cy

Awesome!  It is going to be a good year!

I feel your pain.  When I bought my boat it was Feb, I couldn't wait to run it.

I just hope you paid closer to the 600 figure than the 70000 figure. Just playing. Congrats

Congrats Ross!  It was just over a year since I bought my first bass boat, and let me tell you, that wait from early february until the opening of catch and release were the longest months of my life.
Hope the boat brings you many great years of use, and even better memories.

TCook

You probably saved my relationship without knowing hahaha, I was going to buy that boat. Ill just keep looking around for a deal like that.
FISH HARD!!!
