I'm curious more than anything else, but does the one day license app offer a start date and time for it to go into effect?  I sell a ton of non-resident one and three day licenses here in Michigan.  Somebody buys a license at 8 am but wont be on the water until 4 in the afternoon, no problem, have the license start the 24 or 72 hours at 4 pm.

I could see a Pit river trip in my future when I head back to visit family.

Snake river sturgeon?

Thanks Howard.  It was a pleasure to have met you.

I only made a few NCKA events but always had a great time, ate awesome food and met some wonderful people.  Making future events however, probably wont happen.  My wife and I have moved just outside the little town (ie tiny) town of Cedarville Michigan.

Kayaking is huge here, its common to see dozens of vehicles with kayaks each day, though I'm not sure how popular it is as a fishing platform.  It is a little late in the season and the movers are dragging their feet hauling our stuff from California so 2018 may be a bust, but fingers are crossed for the salmon/steelhead runs.

I've been meaning to pick up a bug suit.  Thanks for the reminder.

Thanks chattich,

I found out about JNW reptiles a week or so back but trying to not go that route.  The snake has to go before we put the house on  the market, we hope to sell in June.

Well that trip was a surprise.  Friday night the water was flat as could be and wind was minor.  Saturday morning the water was flat and the wind was a non issue.  The fans really started to turn on from around 11am until 4ish or so then died back down.

There was NO swell, no waves, little wind and very few kayakers or boats out on the water.  Based on weather forecast I left my kayak at home 

We picked up just one keeper crab off of the jetty.  One member of our group did drop 4 pots with a kayak for about a 4 hour soak and limited with a couple of jumbos.
