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.

John Denver did, however, thank God for it.

Wixom.  Lovely little town nestled between novi and milford.  Blink and you'll miss it.  Big ford plant off I96.  One horse town.  Puncsatawney Phil was originally from Wixom.

Eastpointe.  Lived in N.E. Detroit for a while.  I can't stand the congestion and the city folk, but I love being so close to Lake St. Clair.  I fish it several times a week.

I live in Fowlerville. Grew up in Garden City. You couldn't pay me to move back to the city.
Peace.
It does not mean to be in a place where there is no noise, trouble or hard work. It means to be in the midst of those things and still be calm in your heart.

I'm originally from the Motor City but now I reside in Oakland County near Woodward and I-696. The NE border of Oak Park right down the street from the Detroit Zoo.

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.

Just west of Ann Arbor.

Right between the Portage Lake chain launch, and the 1/2 moon launch.

So much water.  So many lures.  So little time.

What's with the news these days on the TV and the radio. Can't find the truth amongst the lies. Some talking head that claims to live their life in a better way, says I have to compromise. But now there's something on the rise. Truth has opened up my eyes. There's no running from your dirty lies. You can't avoid the truth. I'll no longer close my eyes.

I see we have a new member named "UPBert".  Welcome, you might be the only Yooper on the board!  I had a yooper roommate at college, he always called me a troll because I lived "under the bridge"  ;D

UPBert

I live in the central Upper Peninsula.  Graduated high school from Forest Hills Northern (Grand Rapids) -  quite a while back!!  Lived in Maine for a few years also.  Don't get "down below" much...

The ice actually went out over a week ago - pretty early up here.  Have seen it more than once, lakes still froze over for the opening of walleye season May 15th.  Hope to have the boat ready and get out crappie fishing this weekend, it's been a long winter!

Fish mostly smallmouth, but run into a good amount of green bass also.  Lots of good fishing up here, and the lack of pressure/people on the lakes is easy to get used to.

If anyone ever gets up this way, shoot me a PM and I'll try to get you pointed in the right direction.
