Michigan Winter

Posted On February 22, 2012
Reporting from SouthWest Michigan.

2011-2012 Winter has been the warmest winter I have ever seen in my 26 years. All year I've heard about anglers setting up their shanties just to remove them days later from fear of loosing them with the thin amount of ice. Today, Feb 21st, was the first time I saw people on the ice this year. With air temps in the high 30's I don't expect them to be out there much longer. Other news, I attended a couple seminars from Johnathan VanDam at DNR Sportscenter in Kalamazoo this past weekend. The first seminar was on tips for summer crankbaits and the second was of course on the "Alabama Rig" and JVD's go to baits. I've fished against JVD many times but it's informative to hear his strategies, techniques and favorite baits.
