i seen a video of more complaining fisherman about nets if you dont like the nets grow a set and cut some buoys if not quit crying PUBLIC LAKE FISH SOMEWHERE ELSE ITS HUGE not to mention lake michigan is easy to fish you have to be a real moron not to pul limits so quit crying and fish

I think comments like this is where alot of the problems start and to cut the bouys (who's side are you on) we had some of that happen this last season and it sure don't help its makes a bad situation into a dangerous one. I here that the GM Jim LaPort at the LR Casino has been fired maybe just maybe the casino is starting to feel the boycott and the lack of local support. I see this is your first post we usually welcome all new comers but i don't think you started off very well.

Thanks Mike for keeping this open for awhile.

Had a 5 person trip yesterday 15 steelhead, 3 kings, released 4 steelhead and had 6 others that we lost, all fish came on orange and green spoons 400-700 fow top 50 a great day in october we don't get many good weather days in october hopefully 1 or 2 more trips before we put her away.

Welcome Daddyo:

You will like it here I think its alot better then some of the other sites. You have a good point in this statement(And for those that hunt, camp, and snowmobile, the tribe is coming after your rights there as well.) I haven't been here that long but it is a great site.

As of yesterday there is no nets north of manistee but I'm sure that will change if your fishing in manistee area keep our eyes open for current net locations go to www.fishmanistee.com but please becareful they do move them.

The good news: The enforcement boat is back in operation they got some gas money.

The bad news : There putting 4 more nets out not sure were but I would say north only time will tell.

You can google chippewa ottawa resource authority

Hope this helps, as far as fines and penalties they enforse there own and right now they don't have a patrol boat because it cost too much for gas.

update:There was a meeting on the evening of 7/9/07.

Netters, and other interested parties were there.

10 to 12 new trap nets are in the plans for Arcadia was said.

It looks like its going to get worst so keep your eyes open:angry2:

Anyone planning on fishing manistee we have 17 nets now from manistee down to the point they have removed the ones up to the north

Please be careful

1. 20# Maxima on rigger rods when running spoons

2. 30# Ande on rigger rods when running meat rigs and flashers

3. I put rings on all spoons

4. I won't go no less then 15# in July- Aug

Well the tribal police enforcement boat has been stop because of cost of running it so now it is a free for all for the netters there is no one looking over there operation.So far every thing there said there were going to do hasn't happen it will not get any better.

We been running about 14 Miles out we had a good break out there but that has now gone, if your planning on fishing manistee remember we now have alot of nets we have 16 of them from big sable point to just north of manistee as far as fishing for kings, july and aug are your best months out in the big lake. Good Fishing
