I'm disappointed to see now that House Natural Resources and Tourism Committee Chair Representative David Martin has added those very bad commercial fishing bills HB 5801 and 5802 to an upcoming committee hearing on Wednesday, May 20, 2026 at noon.

The poorly written, damaging to Michigan Sport Fishing commercial fishing bills have been introduced again. State House Bills 5801 and 5802, introduced by Rep. Dave Prestin and Rep. Jason Morgan, have been assigned to the House Committee on Natural Resources and Tourism.

This is a tale of two lakes. Intertwined lakes, in Barry County, Michigan. Where somehow the water has gone away. Upper and Lower Crooked Lakes, both near and dear to me, are suffering from the lowest water levels I've seen in the 35+ years I've been fishing them.

I'm still brooding over being ditch when TCook and I fished the spring open a few years back. It was a classic case of the east side guys losing the west siders after the tournament going for eats. T and I had to end up eating 24 hour dogs at Speedway. Although you know a dried out dog is crunchy and tastes almost like a deep fried dog which is somewhat similar to a grilled dawg that is left over a low heat for a long time. Nothing like a microwaved dog and not to be confused in the least with the $1.50 dog and coke from Cosco.

We've got to stop the east side verses west side stuff sometime Dan. I live right in the middle so I say sign up for the tournament and catch a bunch of fish! That's what matters.

East. West. North. South. It's all good! ;D

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.

Wait a minute! I can agree with the east side west side family reunion BUT the the North shall NEVER make amends with the south!

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.

Count me in as a NON boater.  I can be a boater if push comes to shove, but I prefer not.

I'll go as a non boater as long as somebody wants to car pool over.

I'm in as a boater, and more than willing to share a ride from the Lansing area, west.

I will also be willing to carpool from the kzoo/paw paw area  my car/your car doesnt matter.

Remember you don't quit fishing when you get old, you get old when you quit fishing

Forgot to mention - I'm in as a boater of course. I'll make sure I can talk normally at this event too rather than the squawking I was doing in May.

I'm in as a non-boater...if that date remains open for me. As usual, I'll just have to wait to see if something comes up.

I am thinking about fishing this tournament, and was wondering if my partner also had to be a member of the forum?  Not like it's a big deal to join, but was just wondering.

djkimmel

All adult participants need to be a member of GreatLakesBass.com (by joining the forum). This not normally a team tournament as far as fish with your buddy, but a draw of boaters and nonboaters so everyone has a chance to get to know each other.

If you really want to fish with someone specific, please let me know ahead of time privately so I can work through arrangements. It's not normally a problem. Just want to make sure I have all the nonboaters covered with enough boaters along with a few family matches.

It looks like I won't be able to make it, after all, due to a previous commitment. Sorry about that.

Sorry to hear that. Hopefully you can make the next one. Good luck in the club tournament.
