Hello from Michigan

[hawgwash]

Hey fellow fishing freaks!

My name is Doug and I'm from the Great Lakes State. Been fishing since I was a kid, watching Roland Martin on them Sunday morning fishing shows. I just started using baitcasters a couple years ago and fell in love with them. I now have three rigs:

President XT 7:3 (my first) on a Berkley 6' 6" Cherrywood MF
Diawa Tatula CT 8:1 on a 6' 10" Lew's Speed Stik MF
Diawa Tatula SV TW 6:3 on a 7' Diawa Aird X MHF

I've caught more fish than I can count, my largest being a 25lb shovelhead on a Senko. Around here my biggest bass was a 5 1/2 lb and a 4 1/2 lb smallie. I'm still searching for that Bama Bass and one of these days I'll run into him.

Well, it's 6:30 am here, time to go fishing
