Ok, back in the middle of March, I asked a question on who would be interested in a fundraiser tournament to help the Michigan Steelheaders with the 2020 Tribal Negotiation. There seemed to be a lot of interest in this. To read more about the Tribal Negotiations go to www.hollandsteelheaders.org. We have have decided to go thru with it, and I think this will be a lot of fun. Remember this is to raise money. The rules are as follows. Start fishing any time after 6am Fish for what ever species you wish, yes Carp , Sheep Head, Cat Fish, Salmon ,ANYTHING. You may fish with as many rods as you wish and have as many people on you team as long as you abide by all Mi DNR rules and laws. Weigh your biggest 5 fish of ANY species You may fish lake Macatawa or lake Michigan Entry fee is $25 per group whether its 5 guys fishing carp on the bank or a group of guys in a boat trolling The fish must be caught on hook and line, no bow fishing or spearing. and the weigh-in is at 1 pm The weigh in will be held at the fish cleaning station across from the DNR boat ramp in Holland at 1 pm on June 7. The trophy will be awarded to the team with the heaviest 5 fish. There will be a sign up list at www.hollandsteelheaders.org starting tomorrow May 14.

You may stop at ray's mini mart in Muskegon, or give snug harbor bait and tackle a call.

I pick them up at the sport shows, I'm not sure if any of the stores carry it, if your going to ludington stop into capt chucks , I know he carries a fare amount of minis, or you can get them online from Big Papa Sport Fishing Products.

I left the ramp around 3 with the Eliminator and my good friend Mitch and headed south. we set up in front of the dunes in 15fow,and trolled to Saugatuck and turned back. We pulled lines at 8pm going 20 for 24. 11 browns, 1 nice coho, 1 return steelhead, and 7 shaker kings returned . Here what worked, lol, we haven't changed a bait in 2 weeks.
