Move went fine. The new server is much faster. Which is good!

I'm planning on moving to a new server within the next 2 to 3 weeks. Just a little friendly warning as there might be a few hours of odd behavior when the process starts. I will try to have it done at night or weekend.

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.

I really like the vermillion tint in Costa Del Mar. Lets through more light than dark gray - about 25% compared to less than 10% for dark gray. Really brightens greens for good contrast.

I have very pale blue eyes (redhead curse) so I would suffer less strain by wearing dark gray, but the vermillion can work in low light almost like yellow while still blocking enough light that I can make it through the day. I could only wear yellow during a very limited time frame and conditions without getting headaches so I haven't bothered yet. Maybe if I was rolling in dough...

I haven't tried any of the mirrors.

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.

I'm in this camp will never spend anything more than 20 bucks for glasses. I have decided that I am not responsible enough to own expensive glasses. Plus I have CRS which doesn't help.

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.

Kaenon copper core. Put them in your glove box and only use them fishing. Go to the gas station and buy $6 glasses to wear the rest of the time then you won't lose your good ones

Mojo

Sooooo for the Costa Del Mar  580 lenses - differences I would find between the silver mirror, vermillion, amber or green tint mirror lenses ? Can one color be an all purpose better than others ? VERY IMPORTANT post for ol mojo as this may be his birthday present from mama sher bere
