Free Fishing Weekend is June 9-10

Hey everybody! The weekend weather looks great for most of Michigan and thanks to the DNR and other official offices you will be able to fish June 9-10 without having to purchase a license. Of course, all other fishing regulations apply so please abide by them. This is a great program and a great way to introduce kids (and even adults) to the joys of fishing. It sure beats having the kids in front of the big black dummy box (that's the tv, folks).

Fishing always reminds me of this song -

Elizabeth Mitchell “Crawdad” You get a line I'll get a pole, honey You get a line I'll get a pole, babe You get a line I'll get a pole And we'll go down to that crawdad hole Honey, oh baby mine.

Get up now you slept to late, honey Get up now you slept to late, babe Get up now you slept to late The crawdad man done past your gate Honey, oh baby mine

What you gonna do when the lake runs dry, honey What you gonna do when the lake runs dry, babe What you gonna do when the lake run dry Sit and watch those crawdads fly Honey, baby mine.

You get a line I'll get a pole, honey You get a line I'll get a pole, babe You get a line I'll get a pole And we'll go down to that crawdad hole Honey, oh baby mine Honey, oh baby mine Honey, oh baby mine Honey, oh baby mine
