like to thank glf for this fine site, my family has been fishing lake michigan since 1989 am currently are running a 252 sportcraft I/B. we trailer from northpoint,ill to racine,wi. stop and say hi if we see each other. remember take a kid fishing when you can and even better take him or her with their parents but make the parents sit and watch the kids catch every fish and please don't let the grownups touch a rod. you may lose an old friend but gain a young one.
