*Biggest non-bass fish brought in to weigh wins the coveted BIG UGLY prize! Fish must be in season and legally caught to count.

¹Please note:
Family members may be able to fish together. Please contact me directly by PM, phone 810-433-BASS (2277) or email to arrange this. I would prefer family members 18 and older be a registered member of GreatLakesBass.com. I will not request that of family members under 18 and prefer not to have family members under 13 register due to federal regulations. If you have a family member that wants to fish but not be a member, please just contact me privately to let me know. Youth 17 years or younger must be participating with a parent or legal guardian. Exceptions to this will need to be discussed with me in advance. Use the contact information above.

GENERAL INFORMATION

Nonboaters please bring life jackets to make sure we have enough. Life jackets must be worn zipped and/or buckled whenever the gas motor is running. Boater must use working kill switch when gas motor is running.

No live bait, artificials only. A Golden Rule courtesy board will be available at the weigh in. You can use your own weigh in bag.

I try to make sure there are as few boats as possible with no one that knows the water. I can have a mini-seminar before we launch on where to fish for people who ask for it. This is an event where we want to see everyone catch some fish!

If you have anything new or like new you'd like to donate for prize giveaways, please contact me.

This event is all about everyone catching some fish, having fun and getting to know each other, and also to honor the memory one of our greatest members - David MadWags Wagensomer!!! Thank you for being members of GreatLakesBass.com.

Post that you are attending, and if attending as a boater or nonboater in this thread please.

[MSURoss]

In as non boater depending on location

[djkimmel]

In the spirit of this event, you should just fish no matter where it is. We always have a good time one way or the other. Always.

[TheFishinPollock]

I'd love to fish any lake. I only said  that because I'm a track athlete cmu and only have so much time in my schedule.

[YpsiBass]

I'm in as a non-boater.  I'll make a fresh batch of brownies to fish on a ranger or a basscat!

[thedude]

i'm in... maybe i better just be a boater this year so i don't get stuck with kimmel and genie again......

[Genie]

... oh how quickly they forget the fun that was had in the Skeeter ...

[TheFishinPollock]

I guess I could stick Dan in my boat.  But he has to sit in the back and man the net .

That's a good plan. If you weren't in the boat, we could have gone to the secret big fish spot that day too!!

I wouldn't trust me with the net if someone doesn't make me go to sleep earlier this time!! LGMOUTH wouldn't stop talking...

[TheFishinPollock]

If ya rember, I didn't need the net much  last fall and a dead duck is easy to net LOL

[djkimmel]

I STILL wouldn't trust me very much!!

[TheFishinPollock]

After all the vids I saw of ya fishing, especially the muskie trip on st clare.  I'd trust ya more to net than to hook up a fish
