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!

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.

Can someone shoot me the gps coordinates for the sunken bridge in Ford Lake? Or the general location of where it is.... I'd appreciate it!!!!
Thanks!

Here's a link to the DNR maps
Pull up the Ford lake map. You'll see the road that runs into the lake (middle of the lake)
The bridge connected the 2 sides

Thanks guys!!!! Here is a cool article I found on the bridge and why it's still down there.... As stated in the article, it is found off of Tuttle Hill rd. in 25' of water and 50 yard from shore.... Ice over the years has flipped it over.

Checked Google Earth. Didn't see anything obvious like a bridge but I imagine that water is darker so visibility wouldn't allow much light to reach 25 feet. You can see where the road used to hit the lake crossing. I wonder if the obvious is that Tuttle Hill Rd crossed to Harris Rd on the North? There is some pattern change to the East a little and closer to the South shore. Maybe that is part of the bridge?

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.

Yes, Turtle hill crossed over

The bridge was shorter, It was a river crossing at that time
When they darned the river they made the lake
