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.

Roy Randolph got me back on with Bob Bauer's Outdoor World (thanks Roy!) to talk about OPENING DAY (YEAH!!!) over the phone.

Bob Bauer helped a great deal with letting us get the word out during the bass season process (WKRK 97.1 Free FM in Southfield) with air time. I'm listening right now over the Internet (Roy is actually there in the studio) to Roy, Bob and Bill Parker - editor of Michigan Outdoor News (love the new colors Bill!).

It works out very well because I also got to talk about Proposal 1 - protecting our outdoor tax dollars, and the lead ban bill - don't buy into the need to ban lead this way. I support educating anglers and the public in general and letting the change from lead to other metals evolve naturally. This will give the industry, small business and hobbyists time to develop more cost-effective processes and equipment.

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.

Nice Job Dan

I didn't even know about the Proposal 1
Help a handicapped angler live his dream!

Thanks Roy.

Yeah, not everyone is reading the conservation/legislation board down below here. Some important stuff in there and not just from me. I'm thinking of changing the name of the conservation forum board section below to "Pictures of Hot Dancing Girls" except I don't want a fine for false advertising.

I'll have a conservation/legislation web page up soon too.
