The Butler Chain is in Florida.  I think we fished 5 lakes there.

Lake Leelanau - 1 time
Cedar Lake - 3 times
Lake St.Clair - 3 times

...it was a bad year for me being able to get out fishing.

Not too shabby for a young newlywed with a new job! How was Muskrat Lake? Could you actually launch a boat there or did you do a kayak or similar? I haven't been there in years.

All I can say is you gotta figure out a way to get out more!! LAPORTE too! That's not very many lakes!

Burt Lake
Cloverdale-Wilkinson Lakes
East-West Crooked Lakes
Lake Chemung
Lake Lansing
Lake Menderchuck (thanks to a new friend)
Lake Orion
Lake Ovid (not enough this year though)
Lake Ponemah
Lake St. Clair
Lobdell Lake
Lower Crooked Lake
Otter Lake
Reeds Lake
Round Lake
Round Lake
Round Lake (okay, all the same lake but I really did fish it a lot!!)
South Lake
Upper Crooked Lake

Writing the 3rd book helped.   I had to be gone during the day so she could work.  I forgot to add my trip to Crooked with you.
