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!

You have to remind her, she's not YOUR mother!  Leave flowers from junior and go fishing!
That is pretty stinkin' funny but not necessarily sound advice.  Better play it by ear Pal!

I will probably be a non-boater hitching a ride with someone at the moment.

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.

Put me down as a non-boater. As of now I am off that weekend, hopefully I won't get forced to work.

Good to hear you're fishing again.

Moved back from Colorado last fall. I was lucky enough to land a job back here in Michigan. I don't have a boat anymore, but hopefully that will change in the next couple years.

Got one!

This is the first year I can think of where we've had more boaters than non. Usually it's a scramble to place people.

YpsiBass

I imagine of all the people that signed up, a few will be non-confirms, but I leave that to Dan to iron out.

Pulling the boat out this sat
I'll be ready, Let's hope for some good weather

But I would like to run the new boat in some 2-4' just to see how she handles them

So as for being a non-boater first timer here, what do the veterans think would be essential for us to bring besides rods, tackle, and doughnuts? Just looking to get prepared.

It's a Champion 210


My partner has an 03 196 with a 200 Opti. I love that boat. It's awesome in rough water. If they still made them, they would have been on my list of possibilities when I bought another one. Nice rig.
