There will be NO entries excepted at the start of any event.  Shoreline will be capped at 40 paid entries for the 2024 seasons.

Any team wishing to fish the 2023 season who did not fish last year will have a waiting list. First in basis to gain the open spots. Fill out the membership and send a check to the address for review and a possible position held.

Rodney Hirdes

     We fish tournaments for fun, for the competition, it's our chance to hang out with all the anglers  and get away from a touch of our daily reality. Getting out on a week night or weekend for a few hours is like the weekly gold league or bowling league for some, to us it is our water time, our chance to unwind, wash a few lures and try to beat the lake and maybe win a couple bucks to offset the costs of the sport we love. 

For me it is all of the above and some time with my kid, for others a buddy, partner or even alone, it is time with the competition before and after, laughs, not so many laughs on occasion, how we lost the " big one " and how we got the big one.

Unfortunately on occasion life reminds us fishing is the true escape but life still finds it's way into our sport.

     Last year we had one of our anglers lose his wife mid season, and this year we lost one of our own. Rodney Hirdes was a member of the fishing community for as long as I can remember along with his dad they ran a great circuit and were all around good guys.

For me to take on Shoreline last year with Morgan Rod was the first person to come up and shake my hand and offer his help and support. Rod also went out of his way to reach out to sponsors to make the trail the best our little trail could be.

He had generated over 1,000 in sponsors the last two years along with some give away items as well.

     This week Thursday Rod lost his battle with cancer, and while our community gets a little darker from his light passing Morgan and myself will choose to remember and honor a dear friend of mine for what little time I had the chance to know him.

I have posted the below link to his families Go Fund Me page to help with all the costs that go with the pain of their loss as well.

Please lets help out the family and send them some help as Rod helped so many of out when he could.


https://www.gofundme.com/f/rod-hirdes-memorial-fund

Also any Macatawa Bank, or any cash donations are being collected by the Kempker family.


Rod, we miss ya and hope you will be there welcoming us when our time comes.

Your brothers and sisters from the fishing community.
