Looks like nice guy and great angler (and GLBass member) Mike Trombly is leading the boater side after day one in the Michigan BFL on the Detroit River. He’s usually tough this time of year particularly on the river and Lake Erie. I see several other GreatLakesBass.com members finished very high and even made the cut. More big old Great Lakes smallmouth bass being caught and brought in. I hope the wind wasn’t blowing, and I hope it doesn’t blow tomorrow.
Well… I probably won’t be able to forget today… ever. One part of the ‘fond’ memories of my massive 6 pound catch of 3 measly little squeaker keepers is hauling my nonboater partner back out of the St. Clair River (69 F water) after he took a header off the bow.
As I sat watching The Outdoor Channel this morning, an interesting bow hunt was on. It kept me thoroughly entertained and my mind off of business, not to mention all of the hurt in my community.

I was pleasantly shocked the next morning when I was called off as boat number 2. Larry was boat number 3. That doesn’t normally happen and boosted my confidence. The guys at Top Bass did their best to get us out quickly since we could see boats coming across the lake from the other tournaments as we launched.
Well… I said the bass were biting, but unfortunately for many anglers up here right now, not many of them! After a slow start in our short evening Thursday albeit somewhat successful with cameraguy’s biggest smallie ever at 6.5 pounds
