Hi, Im Doug was first told to check out the site by fishsniffer and wow what a site. I have to say this is so far the most informative and freindly i have found so far. thanks don. I am just gettin started back in to the big lake scene, used to go alot when i was a kid with the family. But boat got sold and dad lost interest, But now i have the bug so to speak, and purchased a boat last year and alot of equip. and hoping to get him and mom back out and get them hooked again. I am sure that i will be asking alot of questions as i'm learning all over again. tried a tournament last year out of grand haven but came up with nothing, but time on the water is still the only way to learn. Thanks and talk to some of you soon.
