Thanks for your comments, dreucarver! Our long term plans do include all the Great Lakes, but we had to start somewhere, and the easiest logistically for us was Lake Michigan, where we live and fish.

Building the events up to the level that we want to reach can't happen overnight, especially in the current economic climate. It will be a multi-year process and success will take lots of input and assistance from the entire Great Lakes' fishing community. We want to hear your ideas, so feel free to post 'em and get some discussion happening.
