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.

So, Martin, myself, and I'm sure a couple other west siders will be at the Novi Ultimate Fishing Show on Saturday Jan. 9th.  Who else will be there?

You guys owe it to yourselves to grab one of the Nemesis baits T-shirts or hoodies before the show.  Then... we should all show up at Brian's booth at the same time and just RAID his suppy of jigs and sickos!!!  Yup, that's right... wear a Nemesis Baits shirt to the show and get a free bait from Brian!!  You know I'll have a shirt on (if it ever shows up on my porch!  LOL!!).  I'm not sure if Brian knows how big a can of worms he's opened!!  :o

Get a shirt or hoodie at Brian's site www.nemesisbaits.com  And feel free to order some baits while you're on the site too!  You won't find a better jig.

While you're at the Show you can also grab a seat for one of Dan Kimmel's or Wayne Carpenter's seminars.  Always interesting and well worth the time.  And you just KNOW Wayne will have some hot new color tube we all will just HAVE TO HAVE!!!  ;D

All the information you want and need can be found here:

See you guys there!!

Myself and my grandaughter will be there, both Saturday and Sunday. I have my Nemesis shirt on right now. I'll make sure I wash it before January. Cant wait for my free jig. I have several of his football jigs. I will try for something different. Looks like we are going to have several Mikes there too.

I do not know my schedule and whereabouts yet at the Ultimate Fishing Show. No seminar scheduled this year at the moment. I may heckle Captain Wayne at some of his...

I kind of like the idea of being a 'free agent' wandering wherever I can around the event. I will try to stop by and see as many people as I can find.

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.

Mike O. I know I talk a little bit more than average guy but is it really so bad that I can't get an invite????  I promise to only be one of my cell phone's at a time the whole trip! 

Also I think a Nemesis Shirt would look good with a Desert Camo or Winter Camo ROI Hat - I might go with the Real Tree ROI Skull Cap if it's cold. 

McCarter I propose a trade - ROI Hat (Paris H. saw them and said "that's HOT!") for some 1/2 footballs or a Nemesis Hoody?? ::)

Luke, I never even knew you had hats. Bring some to the show please. I'll buy one.

Mike, I'll check with boss to see if I can go. Have room for another car-pooler? If the roads are fine that day we could even take the Taurus - maybe. We'd each be able to buy an extra jig from McCarter with the gas $$ we save!

Marc, I just mentioned to Martin the other day that we should ask you if you wanted to go.  I'm good with the Tauras... but I call SHOTGUN so Martin has to sit in the back with Luke!  LOL!!   ;D

It's all about age Denny... since I will be the OLDEST person in the car I get certain privelages.  If not... I know the way and have my own gas money!  LOL!!!!

Besides... Martin will probably sleep most of the way and Luke will be on the phone the whole time.

Maybe its because he's a Legend w/ 5-stars...Martin's long legs will probably have to wrap in circles. Or he can turn backwards and stick them through the emergency-access hole to the trunk.

All this is moot.  In a post above I called SHOTGUN.  And we all know that the first person to call SHOTGUN gets the front seat.  It's not my fault Martin and Luke weren't around to call it.

I win.

Mike - if you read his quote, he'll need all his money for Dorito's, Little Debbie's Snack Cakes, Twinkie's, pizza, Taco Bell, Ho-Ho's, etc... oh and a pillow for nap time!  If he was going to a wedding then he might have cash available.

Sorry, man!
