where in michigan are you looking at? I know of two GTG this year I'm going to and I'm in charge of one. The first looks like it will be the first weekend in Janurary and the second is on Ground hogs day. The first is at a no size limit lake and the second is home to some huge pike. Let me know if you want details or as to an idea of what your after in Michigan and i can help steer you in a direction.

Merk my buddy lives in Minnewauken in NoDak a block off Devils Lake he will have some great reports and I'm sure lodging will be close at hand also.

He's deer hunting this weekend so I will probably talking with him this Sunday Night I bring up the subject of it.

Houghton lake 24" min with 2 fish limt but I wont be they not worth the time for pike, walleye jogging is good, I know a guy that caught 200+ pike last winter there and one was a keeper. And thaks MJ, 10 years and corporate finds out about the narcolepsy this spring and at the end of a two year state contract , the very day, im out the door.

Week I'd look at Higgins lake many 40"+ fish taken each year mainly be spear. Crystal water max depth 200+ a local spearing lake that is under fished for pike 90%, come for trout, smelt, and perch. Ice can be tricky follow trails, im going to learn the lake this year.

I hope to spend more time on Higgins this season aswell. Ive been there several times for the smelt but never to spear pike.

Lakes Cadillac and Mitchell are good lakes to spear on. Lots of keeper size pike with a chance at a 40+". Easy access points.

St. Marys river system between L.Superior and L. Huron is also good. Lots of pike, muskie, walleye, perch. Downside is you need a machine or vehicle to get to your fishing spot.

I live on Drummond Island which is at the southern end of the St. Marys. Good spearing/fishing there too. Lots of Islands to fish around but.
