Im in houghton lake.

I went to the bay last year one time in a buddys 14 foot jon boat. (niether of us had ever been there). We were up by pinconing/standish by the pine river and it was so shallow around the shore of the bay we didint get to far and never seen a fish. I have been researching the bay alot. I have ready many of your posts on here and on michigan sportsman forum. I am going to try and get on the saginaw river a couple times and might venture out to the bay to try my luck again. the bay worries me a little as it was so shallow and rocky up by standish. i have google earthed the saginaw river and it looks like a great place to try and only an hour away from me.

I plan to bowfish houghton lake but also nervous about people getting mad at the lights and genny noise so i will prbably stick to the areas that less populated if there are any fish there.

I guess its all overwhelming and im excited to get it started....bring on the warmer weather!
