Sanford/Wixom Lake week night tournaments

[gmetime24]

The park closes normally close to sunset. The store half way up the lake stays open and if we wanted to hang out after for a beer or 2 it would be much easier

[Coop]

I'm in favor of the store as well. The park closes way too early. I don't want to get locked in. I like the launch at the store and like you said they don't close you out. Plus it's more centralized on the lake so we can get where we need to be and back sooner, which leaves more time to fish.

We are going to cancel this first tx due to not everyone being able to come.  We are still on for the next one though.

[Big dreams]

Anybody interested in making this happen on July 16th?

[Hollada]

What's going on with the dam repairs and lake draw down?  Is it happening this year?  If so, anyone know when they start drawing down?

[Big dreams]

This keeps changing.  Last time I spoke to one of the lake association members, it doesn't sound like it will happen this year.  You can check into this on their website wixomlakeassociation.org.

[Coop]

Yeah I can do the 16th. Where and what timeframe?

[Big dreams]

Do you want to do Wixom? 6-9?

[gmetime24]

I might be able to come. That's my birthday and I'm not exactly sure what family plans are yet

[Big dreams]

Cool, let us know if you can sneak away for a few hours

Good luck on sanford. They just sprayed for weeds last week. Had our BASS team event there sat.  Could not see any farther down than 6 9 inches.  We left the event almost 2 hours early.  Absoutly no fish hitting for us.

[Big dreams]

Seems they have been spraying all lakes in the tit chain lately.  Secord, Smallwood, and wixom have all been sprayed in the past 3 weeks.

[Big dreams]

Guys, I can't make this one.  I had motor issues yesterday and am taking it in this week.  Highly doubtful they will get me in and out this soon.

[gmetime24]

My schedule works out better for me to fish tonight. Hopefully I'm out of work and on Sanford by 5

[Big dreams]

Good luck out there.  My boat is in the shop now.  I hope to have it back by early next week.  Then I have to take the TM in to have it serviced as it keeps shutting off.  The tech said he thinks it might be water in the lower unit....   Boy this sport is expensive.  darn close to selling everything!

[gmetime24]

That sucks man I hope it all works out for ya

[Coop]

Well someone let me know when this gets straightened out and I'm in. How's Sanford been fishing anyways? I heard it's been a mess because of all the spraying etc...

[gmetime24]

It's definitely fishing tougher. I hate the weed kill but you just gotta make the right adjustments. Last night we caught about 20 in a little over an hour and then it slowed right down. Most fish were small with a nice 3.5er being big fish of the night. The wind was blowing hard but when we found the good grass it was pretty good action. Water clarity was a foot in some areas and only inches in others. Water temp 72-75
