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 don't seem to have that one on my calendar...?

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.

You have to read the fine print. PRIVATE sale, you have to be important to get an invitation to it. Oh by the way does anyone have an extra invitation so I can get in.  :D :D :D
When you are in any contest you should work as if there whereto the very last minute a chance to loose it.

I know you were just joking, but I have an invitation I'd be happy to share with ya as a return favor for telling us your jerkbait secrets at the Novi show! Heck, I'll even take ya out for a beverage afterwards for MORE secrets!!

How about just copying all your cooridinates on an SD card for us - Mike & I won't tell anyone - we promise!!

I did find those jerkbaits online and ordered a half dozen. Getting ready to do some doctoring to a few as you suggested. Good winter project. Waiting to hear back from someone about other plans for this evening - if that doesn't pan out I will be coming tonight. I worked there for 3 years in college when Bob still owned it. My first date with my now-wife of 15 yrs was bringing her to the Xmas party at Bob's house! Lots of memories everytime I go in the store (hope that doesn't sound too sappy). Hope to see ya there -

Good seeing you guys tonight (Mike, Ed, Don). We even got to heckel Mangus for a while. And you made a great model Don - ya held the end of that line just like Vanna turning letters! Wish I could have stayed longer to chat but had to get home and get my three boys a snack then into bed. So Mike, did my ticket win anything? Be honest now - there are witnesses!
