Boating and kayaking are allowed under Gov. Gretchen Whitmer's stay-at-home order, officials with the governor's office said Friday, overruling a state police lieutenant's earlier statement that launching watercraft was barred under the governor's edict.

i havent been fishing in years...
what does everyone use for gear? ive got my dad's old rods and reels (i mean REALLY OLD. steel rods about 4-1/2' long with bait casting reels wound with black woven line!) and a beat up spinning rod with an open face spinning rod. no idea how old the plastic line on it is, 40yrs maybe? (so NEWER than the stuff on my dad's reels)

It's not on fire yet, but they are in. Going again Wednesday calling for 66
As far as gear better rods do make a difference, but not needed. 3/4oz or 1oz depending on current you could go 5/8 oz or 1/2 oz. I bang the bottom usually with 3/4 oz in the D. I have a med heavy 5"9" rod with fast tip. I can feel the slightest tap, hook set is strong and fast. Some rods with more bend, I will miss some strikes. I use hi vis 8lb braid, which is like 2lb or less mono, it cuts through the current better.
I'll report back Wednesday. I've been lower river, friends say mid and upper are better then what I've been seeing lower. Warmer weather is going to help

Submissive gun rights advocates need to lose their submissiveness before we lose our 2A rights.
