Michigan - the Great Lakes State - is a fisherman's paradise.
Surrounded to the west, the north and the east by the waters of the Great Lakes - not to mention the countless reservoirs, natural lakes, potholes, rivers, streams and flowages that dot the Michigan map - and there's little wonder why the state has the nickname that it does.
Heck, even the name "Michigan" suggests how good the fishing is here, being a French form of the Ojibwa Native American word "mihigamaa" which means large water or large lake.
