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.

Family members may be able to fish together. Please contact me directly by PM, phone 810-433-BASS (2277) or email to arrange this. I would prefer family members 18 and older be a registered member of GreatLakesBass.com. I will not request that for family members under 18 and prefer not to have family members under 13 register due to federal privacy regulations. If you have a family member that wants to fish but not be a member, please contact me privately prior to the event. Youth 17 years or younger must be participating with a parent or legal guardian. Exceptions to this will need to be discussed with me in advance. Use the contact information above please. Thank you.


GENERAL INFORMATION


Nonboaters please bring life jackets to make sure we have enough. Life jackets must be worn zipped and/or buckled whenever the gas motor is running. Boater must use working kill switch when gas motor is running.

No live bait, artificials only.

I try to make sure there are as few boats as possible with no one that knows the water. I can have a mini-seminar before we launch on where to fish for people who ask about it.

This event is all about everyone catching some fish, having fun and getting to know each other, and also to honor the memory one of our greatest members - David MadWags Wagensomer!!! Thank you for being members of GreatLakesBass.com.

If you have anything new or like new you'd like to donate for prize giveaways, please contact me.

Post that you are attending, and if attending as a boater or nonboater in this thread please. It is easier for me to keep track if your status is in this thread. Thanks!

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.

williamonica0214

I am looking forward to it hope you guys aren't to hard on me since I am from Ohio. I have never fished in your great state. I Hope to catch a few smallmouth.

Waterfoul

I'm pretty sure Mike Szot and I will be looking to fish AFTER the event since we don't get over there very often.  So if anyone would like (and the weather is decent) we'd love to hang out with you for a couple hours in the afternoon.
Addicted to fishing.  All the time, any species, anywhere!!  Especially in West Michigan!!!


williamonica0214

I am so excited to meet everyone and fish St Clair. When do I find out who I am fishing with? I am sure I won't out fish mikesmiph.


dartag

Everyone might want to bring a jig or senko rod. The water is really muddy so  LM fishing the canals may be another option.  I will be out Thursday and will post a lake report that night

Well, of course you'll be there. You're everywhere!  I won't be surprised to see you there like I was when you showed up in Muskegon.

Looks like we may need a couple more boaters if anyone knows someone.
