Hello all! The Outcast here.
I have recently retired and am looking forward to exploring the vast quantity of water here in N. E. Michigan, including Lake Huron. Hopefully I will be chiming in with tails of adventure and success. Water a bit hard right now, but spring is on the way, Tight Lines to All,

Thanks all! Looking forward to getting out this spring, so many great options within 50 miles! Going to be great. I moved from SE Michigan where I took full advantage of the Detroit River and Western basin of Lake Erie, walleye and small mouth heaven! Will be hard to top, but I am up to the task!

Welcome to Northern Michigan. We live in Grayling and are also retired. We have our bass boat ready to go when the ice leaves the water. I am looking forward to spring fishing on Michigan lakes and rivers. You are welcome to join us any time we are going out. We are looking for a fishing partner because my wife doesn't like to fish as much as I do. Again welcome to Northern Michigan.

Thanks Kelly!
I will keep in touch, sounds like a plan. I really want to dig into the big smallies that are supposedly in all the lakes. I fished a few times in Thunderbay and did ok, just a lot of area to learn.

Where do you usually fish Kelly? I live about 4 miles from fletchers, and have done well on largemouths and have caught a few smallies on top water there. Looking to check out some of the big inland lakes, hear a lot of good about them.

I live 4.2 miles from the northern launch on Higgins lake. I didn't get out much last year as I was doing some up grades to my boat. This year I want to look at Reedsburg dam. It's just west of Houghton lake. It's just small enough to be able to fish in a day. Plus I can through my crawdad traps in the water while I am fishing and enjoy them for dinner. Both Houghton and Higgins lakes are supposed to be good. I also want to look at lake Saint Helen. The walleye and crappie fishing is supposed to be good there.
