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!

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.

Now you all know it's "all about Dan" this week, he'll post a report when he gets back among us common folk next week. Reality will hit him when he gets off the plane and it's -2 outside.

I havent heard from any of the Guys that went down. I guess they must know that they are better than us at this moment and dont want to lower themselves to our level. Right now I wish I would have joined them. I guess we will have to wait a few more days for all of the stories.
When you are in any contest you should work as if there whereto the very last minute a chance to loose it.

Ow ow ow OW! Sorry. Blisters... sunburn. 90 degrees give or take a few when we left the mountain Saturday. 80s in Mazatlan when we boarded the plane.

The Internet doesn't go as far up into the Sierra Madre Mountains as we were (nor phones, TV, radio or carpal tunnel syndrome). Didn't get home until 2 AM last night. Haven't had time to unpack yet let alone look at all the pictures and video to relive the trip of a lifetime (particularly the part where I sold Jack Horning to a commercial fisherman for 80 pesos, a Coca and a 7-Up - AND he threw in a couple tilapia too!!). More to come...

djkimmel

Between the day job and some sleep, it's hard to get anything done ;D

I didn't actually catch any Tilapia, but I did eat a lot of them each day at the big shore lunch siesta. Along with burritos (really soft tacos), awesome homemade french fries, chicken, beans, rice, all the fixins... yum! I think I gained 5 pounds...

Dan, with all the eating, did you manage to find time to do any fishing? Or were you just too full? I also noticed you mentioned the shore lunch and SIESTA, you probably needed a 3 hour nap after all that grazing.

djkimmel

I wish... the guides were relentless in their drive to get us GRANDE' Bass!!!

 dan, with all that food that you ate what did that do to you when you were out on the boat? i betcha it kept all those skeeters away didn't it ;D did you have to fish alone? if i did that i would have too. do they have floating porta potties on the lake?lol..karol

djkimmel

Two anglers and a guide to every boat.

No floating portas. They did have a nice wood box up on a hill with a real live flush terlet in it. It was like magic... ;D
