annexation Posted April 9, 2015 Posted April 9, 2015 Thanks for the prompt notice! Eager to hit the water now with all my gear. Quote
Cgrinder Posted April 9, 2015 Posted April 9, 2015 Ah, crap. I thought I had two more weeks to get ready! Quote
Super User A-Jay Posted April 9, 2015 Super User Posted April 9, 2015 Wow ~ ! ! ! This is a Game Changer for me . . . . . . Never thought I'd see it but I am SO Glad it's the Law. Now I just need some open water. Guess the bad thing is now it can't thaw fast enough . . . . . . A-Jay 1 Quote
lecisnith Posted April 9, 2015 Author Posted April 9, 2015 Take a short road trip to Traverse City. I'm going out on Sunday... Quote
Super User A-Jay Posted April 9, 2015 Super User Posted April 9, 2015 Take a short road trip to Traverse City. I'm going out on Sunday... Thank you very much for the Generous offer, but with this most recent & very welcome change, I need to ramp up my preseason yard work schedule. Before today I had over two weeks to get it done. But now I really need to bust a move. The ice could go out here in a weeks or so. I have to be done & ready. Because once there's open water - I turn into The Invisible Man - now you see him - now you don't. A-Jay Quote
LunkerFisher Posted April 9, 2015 Posted April 9, 2015 Looks like Christmas came early this year! 1 Quote
nascar2428 Posted April 9, 2015 Posted April 9, 2015 I really don't know why you guys are so surprised. The DNR has backed this the whole time. High wind warnings tommorow, I still plan on wetting a line or two. It's the last OPENING DAY!! Quote
LunkerFisher Posted April 10, 2015 Posted April 10, 2015 I'll be out there this weekend. Probably throwing jerks, jigs, and plastic worms. Maybe some lipless and squarebills too. Gotta see what them bass want in early April now! Quote
digitaltoad Posted April 10, 2015 Posted April 10, 2015 http://www.eregulations.com/michigan/fishing/general-hook-line-regulations/#General-Hook---Line-Regs-Note-2 It is official! Catch and immediate release. Maybe I'm missing something, but doesn't CIR on that page still state, last Saturday in April? Quote
Cgrinder Posted April 10, 2015 Posted April 10, 2015 Maybe I'm missing something, but doesn't CIR on that page still state, last Saturday in April? Looks like they changed it back on that website. Earlier in the day it said year round in red text. Quote
Super User A-Jay Posted April 10, 2015 Super User Posted April 10, 2015 What the heck is going on ? DNR Pulled a Harry Houdini act . . . . .here today gone tomorrow. They posted one thing up and then changed it back ? ? ? Nothing's changed. It's the same as it's been I'm really confused now; not to mention a bit angry. A-Jay Quote
lecisnith Posted April 10, 2015 Author Posted April 10, 2015 Well, that's effed. I'm sure they just wanted to improve the wording or one detail was wrong. Quote
annexation Posted April 10, 2015 Posted April 10, 2015 Well what the hell. Have to keep an eye on it until it reverts back. Quote
LunkerFisher Posted April 10, 2015 Posted April 10, 2015 Can't we just pretend that we saw the change yesterday and didn't see a re-neg? Quote
lecisnith Posted April 10, 2015 Author Posted April 10, 2015 I just talked to a guy in the fisheries division of the dnr. He said that he got an email saying that the order had passed yesterday. He believes that it is an open season as of now, but he's going to get clarification and get back to me today. So stay tuned... 1 Quote

LunkerFisher Posted April 10, 2015 Posted April 10, 2015 Now the question is: who here will get the first one? Quote
Super User A-Jay Posted April 10, 2015 Super User Posted April 10, 2015 I just sent the DNR an email. If it's "ON", why did they change the regs on line back to the older version ? Hoping I get a response. A-Jay Quote
LunkerFisher Posted April 10, 2015 Posted April 10, 2015 DNR posted all the changes here: http://www.michigan.gov/documents/dnr/New_Fishing_Regulations_for_2015-2016_-_additional_info_486671_7.pdf 3 Quote
Super User A-Jay Posted April 10, 2015 Super User Posted April 10, 2015 So the DNR changed it back - That's good. I can come in off the ledge now . . . Of course - It's snowing right now . . A-Jay Quote
annexation Posted April 13, 2015 Posted April 13, 2015 Now the question is: who here will get the first one? Does this one count? 1 Quote
Super User A-Jay Posted April 13, 2015 Super User Posted April 13, 2015 Does this one count? Sure does ~ And the best part might be that Blue Sky. Congrats A-Jay 1 Quote
