BOTTOM PICTURE.THIS GENTLEMAN FROM HELL MICHIGAN ENTERED OUR AMATEUR BASS CONTEST AND WON WITH THIS 4LB 2 OUNCE SMALL MOUTH BASS. NICE FISH, WAY TO GO, AND THANK YOU FOR COMING ALL THE WAY HERE AND GOING BACK TO, WELL, HOME.

THE LADIES ON THE TOP DID NOT WIN A PLACE ON THE BOARD, BUT THEIR BEAUTIFUL SMILES AND EXPERIENCES THEY SHARED THIS WEEKEND ARE SURE WINNERS. THANK YOU FOR ENTERING OUR CONTEST. YOU DID WIN A PLACE IN OUR HEARTS, THAT’S FOR SURE.

THE WEATHER WAS WINDY FOR THE TOURNAMENT, AND SOME DESCRIBED THE DAY AS “TOUGH’, AND SOME EVEN SAID THEY FELT BEAT UP. A LOT OF FISH WERE WEIGHED IN, AND AT FIRST THERE WERE FISH FROM LONG LAKE, THE NARROWS, AND GRAND LAKE. BUT THE BIG FISH ALL WERE FROM GRAND.

THANK YOU ALL FOR  JOINING THE TOURNAMENT AND TRYING. THE  2ND PLACE FISH WAS 4LB, 0 , AND THE THIRD PLACE WAS SHARED BY TWO, AT 3LB 12 OUNCES. ALL VERY RESPECTABLE  BASS.

SOME PEOPLE “COMPLAINED ” THAT ALL THEY COULD CATCH WAS WALLEYE, WALLEYE, WALLEYE. AW, TOO BAD. FISHING IS VERY GOOD ON THESE LAKES RIGHT NOW, AND EVEN THOUGH WE HAVE HAD SOME MAYFLY ACTIVITY, THE FISHING IS GREAT.

LAKE HURON HAS NOT BEEN A TOPIC OF SUCCESS THESE PAST FEW YEARS, BUT IT IS WORTH MENTIONING THAT SOME FISH ARE BEING CAUGHT OFF ROCKPORT RIGHT NOW. 70 FEET OF WATER, AND ALSO OFF THE PIER AND DOCKS STILL. ATLANTIC SALMON, A FEW STEEHEAD, LARGE PIKE, AND SOME BROWNS ARE BEING CAUGHT. MINNOWS, AND EVEN TROLLING WITH LORIE RIGS AND CRAWLERS IS WORKING. ALSO SOME SMALLER SPOONS SUCH AS LOCOS AND CROCS.

THERE ARE DEFINATELY SOME BAIT FISH IN CLOSE TO SHORE. EMERALDS, FATHEADS, AND GOBIES. THESE ARE ATTRACTING ALL THESE BIG FISH, AND WE ARE HAPPY TO BE ABLE TO PASS THIS ON TO YOU.

REMEMBER THAT OLD SAYING,”GET OUTSIDE, IT’S A GREAT PLACE TO BE” ? WELL IT SURE IS . COME ON OVER, SEE US, AND GET OUT THERE AND CATCH FISH. C’MON, YOU’LL LIKE IT.

OPEN 7 TO 6 DAILY

HOPE TO SEE YOU SOON

BUDD AND LORIE
