Review of Kalamazoo, Michigan


Fly fishing good, eating fish bad
Star Rating - 1/18/2007
Downtown Kalamazoo is a decent place to live. There are still quite a few vacant store fronts on the main drag, but new construction projects are bringing in ammenities like new movie theatres and other hospitality businesses. The Kalamazoo River (hence the name) cuts along the outskirts of the city and in the summer time is a great place to catch small mouth bass on a fly rod (you should use a boat). Don't eat the fish, though, as this may cause hair to grow on the bottom of your feet and third eyes to spout on your forehead. Best of luck and tight lines.
