If you're reading this, you probably remember your first fish and its impact on your life. Most anglers get their start early on in their lives and the reason is because somebody decided to take them fishing. It's always fun to introduce someone to fishing and the "take a kid fishing" mantra has been stated for years, but the important part is to make the experience enjoyable and catch fish.
An ongoing fish die-off on Lake Macatawa, near Holland in Ottawa County, stems from the virus responsible for causing viral hemorrhagic septicemia, or VHS, the Michigan DNR confirmed.
Abu Garcia has added a new model to the Zenon spinning selection with the Zenon X.
This new model fills the gap by offering the flexibility to fish lightweight finesse style baits while also providing the power to handle heavier baits when needed.

The Michigan DNR will make approximately the same number of public-land antlerless deer licenses available to hunters this fall as last.
Private-land licenses, however, will decrease by about 25 percent, most significantly in southern Michigan.
The DNR will make 70,550 licenses available for public land, down slightly from last years 70,750. A total of 483,400 private-land licenses will be available, down from 637,900 in the 2012 season.
An overall decrease in antlerless licenses was recommended in many deer management units (DMUs) in anticipation of increased adult deer mortality and low fawn recruitment due to the prolonged winter, said DNR deer and elk program leader Brent Rudolph.
