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 would like to try some Nemesis Swim baits....Any chance of getting a Handfull of them brought over to the open for me to buy??....

Basic colors..Green pumpkin, black blue..etc

Either that or we can hook up at some other time...

mikesmiph

Moto, we got a bunch of tubes from McCarter before he went up north. Too late to get more. Between Bobber and myself, we have a pretty good selection of Nemesis baits if you want to try anything. Many other members have stuff too. I'm sure someone has some for you to try out.

I meant to say Swim JIGS not baits.....

Dan, I'm donating some crankbaits.  The exact number will be between two and one million.

LOVE IT!! Good things we have 1,400+ members. That would mean at worst I have to package them up in lots of around 700! Only because I couldn't give away the whole million just at the event. Not enough space ;D
