Weather and Gas hurting Northern Michigan
As I run around beautiful Northern Michigan all small business’s are hurting with bad weather on the weekends and high gas prices. Friday is the key day for good weather as many will not waste gas if the weather is poor and fridays have been rainy or cold so little traffic heading north. I talk to many fisherman and they are targeting the smaller lakes as they use less gas to fis with many looking for places to fish from the shoreline to save gas.
It will be a challenge for everybody to survive this summer but were tough up here ad will find a way, but nice weather would be a big plus.
I’m hearing good fishing reports this week when we can wet a line between strong winds and rain. Seems leeches and crawlers are the preferred bait right now. On many of the lakes the fish fly hatch has started so look for fish to be on a feeding frenzy till they fill up with flies then the bite slows
