Legislation that could eliminate the need for state park and boating access site motor vehicle permits in Michigan appears stalled. Michigan is trying to adopt a program – the Recreation Passport Proposal – that has worked very well in other states such as a very successful Montana program.

GreatLakesBass.com supports user pay systems, but there is no doubt our state lands owned by everyone need more help. Please consider supporting the bills.
