I am heading up to skegemog this weekend and want to pick know up a couple new baits. I am leaving from the midland area. Any places along the way to buy a couple lures? I have only bought used or online and I don't have time for shipping.

Also never fished skegemog before. Any pointers for a novice would be greatly appreciated.

Clare Jays is your best bet. Someone else might know about the Traverse City Gander selection

TC gander mountain does have a very limited stock. If your fishing skegemog only thing you really will need is a 5 gallon bucket of patience

jays it is then. Patience I got. I got the whole weekend, if we don't like what we see we can just move up the chain.

Watch out for boat traffic between 11 and 7. It gets pretty busy out there this time of year.
If you see a deep v glass triton gray in color with a full windshield feel free to stop and converse. That guy spends a stupid amount of time out there and can probably tell you where they aren't lol.

If I see him I will say hi. We will be in an older blue/gray Seanymph with just a console. We are the 2 tall guys picking out professional over runs.

Hope skeg was nice to you guys. If you have a minute fill out an online survey for your trip, even if you were skunked, those count too.

I've been trying to fill out these online surveys and it won't accept the fish. It always comes up with.....! Please enter the total length to the nearest tenth of an inch.
I've tried every way I can come up with to list length to the nearest tenth. What am I doing wrong??????

I was skunked, buddy was bass fishing and he picked up a couple but nothing to rave about. We're you the guy fishing by himself with no shirt on? We might have crossed paths at the opening to elk Lake.

Not sure about entering fractions, but I just entered my last couple vacations worth of mostly skunkings (thank God for autofill!) and for lengths like 47 or whatever it was, it didn't want any decimals at all. I would try a zero in both the tenth and hundredth space and it would not accept it. but it liked the number with no decimal...
