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.

Is there any open inland lakes open yet in southeastern lower Michigan?
Born to fish forced to work!!!!

Lobdell launch is open and you can go to Bennet , but the main parts of the lakes are still covered with ice . I put in yesterday to put time on my new boat but didn't see any fish in the shallow stuff . But there was a guy water sking though.

Durand Dan

Water Sking ??? When I was out there Sunday the was 37.5 deg.

cr

Yes water-sking , in 41 deg. water . He had a dry suit on and a hot water outlet coming from his motor to warm up . We aren't the only ones with spring fever.

Durand Dan

cr,
Did you get a chance to look at the lake today? Any more open space?

DD

I was out there about seven , the north arm that Whites landing is on is totally ice free , but the main lake is still half covered . Mark was out there and said he saw a couple on Bennetts back-waters . I have to take the wife and daughter to metro tomorrow morning , their going on Durands Seniors spring break cruise , but I hope to get out to the lake in the afternoon .
