Man, it's rough trying to find an updated Houghton Lake fishing report out there! I guess you can call Lyman's on the Lake anytime. Found this one from last week ... mentions...

I've seen tournaments held on that lake/impoundment ... they were small tournaments of roughly 7-12 boats, but it was ugly & like watching bumper-cars out there, rotfl. It's gotta' be less than...

Well, I suppose there's worse things you could do all summer than chase walleye, ;) ... nice catch, perfect size, :)

Used to fish that impoundment & surrounding area quite a bit, but when I noticed a few bass tourneys checking in there, it got too crowded/overfished, IMO. The last DNR survey of that place...

Yeah really, especially considering that place was a 10mph/no wake lake last time I checked, :) ... or is it 10hp?

Hehehe! ... yeah, somedays I can even fit in a nap, rotfl

I'm gonna' give this one a bump as I prep for Houghton/Fall Crappie Camp ... already have boards, but most my cranks are of the #7 and #9 Rapala/Rebel variety, with a few miscellaneous smaller ones...

Used to do this for my kids when they were smaller, it was an interesting & rewarding hobby ... mostly bluegill, sunfish,
pumpkinseeds & perch. Somewhere I was told or read that a good rule to...

This seems to be a recurring thread on pretty much every fishing forum I've seen since joining the internet community ... not that's there's anything wrong with that, ;), people need to vent...

Nice job, you got that place dialed in, :)

I threaded this pic under the title, "We're gonna' need a bigger cooler" on another board back in April ... Detroit River in the springtime - gotta' luv it, :biggrin ... went out yesterday (beating...

Just dinkin' around a marina (as I'll sometimes do) and hooked this souvenir from 1989, :).

Are you referring to Stony Point nearer the lower Detroit River/Lake Erie? I've never fished it & always wonder where it is ... hear guys talk about perchin' there. The Stony Point I'm referring to...

They're in that body of water/impoundment, LSC, Detroit River, St Clair River ... having Canadian license helps because the best catches are in Mitchell's Bay, out in front of Stoney Point/Belle...

8-10lb'ers are pretty common in the Detroit River this time of year & every time I've been out, a few 12-14lb'ers caught as well ... gotta' make that trip! :)

Oh man, the article I was referring to was an In-Fisherman article from a few months ago that did mention a few guys winning a tourney using boards (as previously noted), but was in no way as...

Yeah, the only real reason I even used one (mini) was because it was free (raffle) & if I have a piece of equipment, I like to at least try it out. One thing that was nice about the mini PB was it's...

I saw that article and was intrigued by it, especially since last summer I played around with a mini-planer board along a few weed lines & closer to shore. Caught a surprising amount of panfish, but...

Like Rich said, after the spring migration it's "location-location-location". Lot of guys switch from jigging to handlining or trolling once the big girls move back to Erie as well. Not that you...

My LSCWA buddy got an 11lb post-spawn female yesterday, got my own personal best & the perch were biting like crazy as well. Crappies are biting out at Stoney as well ... pick your poison and give...

This is what I normally use (other then live minnows) around the marinas/canals of LSC. I do a lot of walking, so I keep it simple. The tackle box is one of those small, double-sided Plano's that fit...

Welcome aboard, give me a shout, I'm right in your neck of the woods, :).

Congratulations! :)

Nice mounts, :)

Yeah buddy! Wyoming, now there's some REAL ice out there. You can still get away with a hand auger in MI, but I'd definitely invest in a power auger out there, :). Me & a bud are planning a trip...

The tungstens? I got a local bait & tackle here that focuses and specializes on panfishing, which is rare because so much emphasis is on the smallmouth/musky/perch/walleye fishing. It's OK with me,...

4' - 9' in LSC is the ticket. I'm wondering with ice conditions this year if it isn't something like a 40yr weather cycle cycling through and we can count on some decent winters for the next five...

Did you make it out to Lk St. Clair? The perch bite has been pretty good (it's actually been best sitting out there during the storms ), and is just going to get better close to ice-out. I use mostly...

Yeah, I was pretty resistent to the idea at first, but was won over after using them a few times. I like the weight & the way they fall. The cost does kind of raise eyebrows, but I was just buying...

I like to take the treble off and replace it with a single hook at times. You get into a big school of perch through the ice, it becomes downright incovenient getting 'em off that treble, :). I was...
