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 i had the opportunity to do my first "photo-shoot" this weekend.  a guy wanted to get out on kent lake with me and see what late fall fishing is all about for an article he is doing for a fishing magazine.  he told me to bring the jersey and said i better be able to catch them for the camera.  luckily i was able to put us on some decent fish although i had a rough start.  kinda nerve racking when someone has a camera pointed at you and say "ok, hurry up and catch one, my fingers are cold".  i missed my first 2 bites ;D  then lost the first fish i hooked ::)  once i got calmed down i started putting them in the boat.

anyway, long story short.  it was fun and i wanted to share a few of the pics he sent to me.  im not crazy about the action shot of me landing the fish.  makes my hips look fat :P

hopefully his article will make it in the magazine.  we still have to get together for some additional info but i can tell you that this is some fun stuff.

oh, i dont remember the name of the magazine right now.  its not any of the big ones like FLW, Bassmasters, Field and Stream, or anything like that.  in fact, i have never even heard of it before but whatever.  any publicity is good publicity or something like that.







McCarter himself :-\'

Great job,  Nice fish  !!!!

Told you keeping those bass alive in your livewell for a few weeks would pay off!! Jk... Good job!

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.

Simply amazing. That's all I have to say.
Original song and lyrics by "MadWags"

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.

Tough crowd.  Mc cheese!!!  That is funny stuff there.

Mojo

Thanks Dan for bringing year round Catch and Release to Michigan
