    I'm originally from Munising> I go back up north for a few weeks every fall, but now I live in Florida. I'm 80 and have been trying to get my wife to move back for 30 years. If you are an adventure-loving Michigander don't fall for the "Winters are too cold B.S" It's not a wise trade-off for 100-degree summers with 100% humidity and storms that blow your house away.
    I love the Lake Superior surf fishing videos. I'm an avid fisherman and I don't recall anyone fishing from Superior's shore other than myself 40 years ago. Manistee is my second choice for a place to live and play in Michigan. That area is possibly the best place to raise a family and build a life in Michigan. I'd love to see a complete float of the Escanaba or the Tahquamenon rivers. They both traverse through some beautiful country and are excellent fishing. Your enthusiasm and practical bush knowledge are informative, infectious, and light-hearted, however; I can't watch your videos before meals. I tend to take your enthusiasm to the table. Thanks for the seat in the canoe and by the fireside.

    The wife and I have just started taking short "adventures" like this.
    End of June, we (and Potatoes...our golden) canoed from Hodenpyl to Tippy. Camped at the first site we came to on the lake/river mouth. 25mph headwind, all 6 miles of Tippy pond!
    We just got back from a long weekend, on Tippy. Put the boat in and found a spot to camp. Walleye are deep, in there! Pulled 3 out of 40ft.
    We've been regulars at Coho Bend for 20 years. My grandparents started out there in the late 70's-early 80's...we've had the same spot for over 40 years!
