Coming in tonight about 4:30 pm, saw that someone was pulling in the buoys that mark the channel out of Gladstone Marina.. Sep 28?? With the low water the rocks on the N side (port as you are...

Walleyes have been biting, harnesses during the day, cranks at night. Weed edges in the upper bay, north of Escanaba should have fish, lots of structure, challenge can be finding them. Have to keep...

Picking apples now, Paula Reds are just about done, but I have some left. Will be starting on the Red Imperials and Red Max (McIntosh hybrid), both good general purpose eating and cooking apples, and...

So far, I've been doing pretty good. But, the first time I don't, it is Chris's fault. I sure as heck am not going to blame myself, and I bought the crawlers at BayView, so, when the skunk is in the...

Got out about 12:45, got a few pulling cranks on the reefs. Picked up friend Dave when he got out of work about 3, we had a limit by 6:30 or so. Cranks, (mostly deep little rippers) then some on...

Speaking of Big Bay, wondering if anyone has been out at Nahma. Low water can make that a little tricky. Drove by the Fishdam Launch the other day, noticed there seemed to be more water in the river...

I think you should keep that one that is 3rd from the bottom in the middle row. I'm low on that pattern and I'd like a chance to "borrow" it some time when you are looking the other way.

Keeping 4500 or below will give a real jump on mileage, not much speed loss. In the tourney, there will be plenty of high HP boats that are going to have more speed than you, so wide open is not...

They were a carbureated engine, so the mileage isn't that great. The upside is they are very dependable and pretty simple to work on. They made that engine or earlier versions (Black Max) for a lot...

I couldn't help but wonder, Was she carrying a couple fish with her when she walked up and had to pee? Would make me suspicious right off. Good thing that is all she had to do, or it could have been...

I've never owned one, been in a bunch of other folks' shacks, some pretty simple, some pretty elaborate. One suggestion I have is to consider not having built in seats. Always uncomfortable, sore...

I sent an email to your address that I had from a few years ago, not sure if it is still the same, if not contact me here of by email, Frank

I have a friend who uses the HDS 5 for ice fishing in North Dakota, and up at Winnepeg, so cold must not bother them. He is very happy with it, uses the full-screen GPS on the sled to get to his...

My lures have found them all over, some areas are even highlighted on the HotSpots maps. Hunters and Squaw Pts, east bank across from Kipling, Black Bottom in certain spots. Often in good fishing...

My guess is that there will be no out-of-pocket expenses for these convicted criminals regarding the filing of the appeals. I thought the Tribal Court made a pretty strong statement in their...

I like to use 2 and 3 color segmented leadcore set-ups. I splice either a 2 or 3 color piece onto my main line, put on a 50' leader. These will put a stickbait down 30' easy, depending on speed and...

Out before daylight on Sunday, mid-day trip on Tuesday. Not much to show for my efforts, couple undersize and a few eaters plus some bonus big perch. Pulled some cranks in the upper bay, 2nd and 3rd...

During the fall bite, the main variables are water temp and weather conditions. Cold temps, below mid 40's tend to favor the stickbait action in my experience, but if the weather gets just right,...

Hey, Chris, how about a review of the minnow regs? Don't want to be a violator if I go after some perch.

Talked to the DNR lady who was at the launch today,just got finished pulling some nets right in front of Gladstone. She said that there were good numbers of large perch, fair amount of walleyes of...

Spent a few days last week chasing salmon at FP. Had pretty good results, caught fish up to 17.5#, quite a few in the 10-15# range, and also fish in the 4-6# size. Not as many shakers as earlier, but...

Gave it a few good tries lately, fished from the harbor to the Ford Can and a little beyond, not much to show for my efforts. Haven't been able to make it right at "Prime Time", but close. Water...

Great day on the water with Capt. Jim aboard the Finaddict out of Cedar River. Caught a ton, learned a trick or two, had a ball. First class operation, cool boat.

Make sure the transom is in good shape. Depending on the age, the bellows on I/O engines might either have a leak or maybe leaked in the past. I would want to take a ride in it, check for any water....
