Lake Chemung Ice Fishing Tournament

Founded in 1999, Michigan-Sportsman. Com started as a group of links to Michigan related sites, and a series of manually edited blogs. It was a marriage of my passions for the outdoors and the internet. In late 1999 we started our 1st message board. After going through 3 different message board softwares, we settled on one in late 2000. Photo galleries, classifieds, product reviews were added in afterward years. It was a social network before the term was coined. Users have self organized get togethers and many have made long lived friendships with others who share the same interests in the outdoors through the site. (michigan-sportsman.com)

Saginaw Bay: Walleye fishing picked up a bit. It looks after some weeks of lockjaw, the fish were hungry! Success was spotty although. If you were in the right place you caught a good number of fish but if not, you went home empty handed. Some of the better walleye action was along the west and south shore. Anglers did well off Erickson Road, Linwood Road, Boutell Road, Bay City State Park, Killarney Beach, the trailer park near the mouth of the Saginaw River, northeast of Spoils Island and in the Slot off Sunset Bay and Thomas Road. Vanderbilt Park remains the single perch hot-spot for the complete bay. (bucsfishingreport.com)

Early in Chemong Lake’s history, locals made efforts to crack their lake-crossing problems by use of a floating log bridge that stretched almost a mile from shore to shore. Though ingenious and in use for many years, the bridge was replaced with the James A. Gifford Causeway connecting east and west shores via the towns of Bridgenorth and Ennismore. Though many seasonal residents swell the summer population, a strong group of year-round residents supply all of the services of a much bigger community like medical care, schools, and parks. With Peterborough only five miles away, big city entertainment and shopping are close enough to be easily accessed. (lakelubbers.com)
