Fishing Michigan

Went down to Bolles Harbour to get my Ohio License this afternoon and found that  Matthews has reopened under new management.  The shop has been open for three weeks,  and while they are waiting for a few more things to come in,  the selection of items was pretty good.  Live bait, hair jigs, trolling baits and plenty of jigs.

Matthews was a mainstay in the area before closing a few years ago.  Located on the right side of LaPlaisance Rd across from the marina docks,  the shop will be cleaning walleye and perch for a fee.  They have a website,  www.matthewsbait.com,  with updates and weather reports.  Mike and Jay were friendly and helpful, give them a shout @ 734-242-0666.

Even though the machine for the Ohio Licenses hasnt arrived yet,  they guys are connected to the internet and can process your information while you wait.  Your paper license will be printed off, the cut and trim it, and offer a small plastic bag to place it in for safe keeping.  Course if you know you will be fishing in Ohio’s waters,  you can do this at home with any printer.  Just remember for the remainder of this month,  there is a 4 walleye limit, which will go up to six at the begining of May.
