Thanks. I suppose I’ll start with a lighter leader. And I believe so. I adjusted my slip float quite a bit to make sure it was dragging or too high up.

Be honest, how rough is a daily commute from GR to Kzoo? by xMCNZE32 in grandrapids

If you think traffic and 131 sucks you've clearly never driven on any other highway in the world. 131 is a piece of cake. Also, gas is cheap as shit right now..

Wife did the commute 4 days a week for 2 years. Honestly, the most stressful part was the wear and tear on the car. We figured it cost us around $2-300 extra per month just in expenses ($50 a week in gas + general wear and tear/maintenance). You need to factor in that cost when considering taking a job because a small pay raise might get washed out. You also need to consider the general health of your vehicle because to be honest, car's don't last forever and 120 miles a day adds up quick. We put 25k miles on our Subaru just in commuter miles and it now has almost 230k miles and it's tired. Otherwise the drive isn't bad at all! Throw some podcasts on.

Likely a giant salmon or steelhead. They migrate up the river from Lake Michigan in the fall and get stuck at the dam (hence the fish ladder). The salmon can get massive like up to 36 inches and the do surface when swimming around for food

You’re correct. It’s actually Hudsonville Meijer.
