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.

Forecast is 76 Degrees and clear as of today.  Looking like a fun day.  Can we try and start a little earlier this year.

We can start at 8am. Will that work for you? Some of us are getting up real early to get over that as it is like poor ole Mike S. (and me).

Wind is supposed to be West and moderate on Saturday which is perfect for the Mile Roads. Cross your fingers.

Thanks Dan for bringing year round Catch and Release to Michigan

Is everything 100% a go tomorrow rain or shine? We would hate to make the 2 1/2 hr trip and cross the border to show up to a last min cancellation...

djkimmel

I'll be there one way or another. I wouldn't cancel unless I was there and there were severe thunderstorms or the like going on at the time of launch. That's not supposed to happen last I checked.
