Eagle/Juno lake anglers have reason to smile.

Their prayers have been answered.

An abandoned property on the east end of Eagle will be converted into a quality boating/fishing access with parking and boat launches to serve both of the popular waterways.

The Michigan DNR has agreed with First Source Bank to purchase the former Dock Property near Edwardsburg and develop it into a multiple public access facility.

Preliminary plans include a parking area for the Eagle Lake boat launch, development of the pond located on the property into a family fishing site, and a boat launch on the channel leading to Christiana Lake and the Juno Chain.

New regulations may have led Indiana to a record deer harvest last fall, but statistics reveal the state’s deer herd, especially bucks, may be declining.

Statewide hunters took advantage of regulation changes and extra hunting dates to bag a record 136,248 deer during the 2012 season, a 6 percent increase over 2011 and topped the previous record of 134,004 deer set in 2010.

“We started down the path to strategically reduce the deer herd in order to balance the ecological, recreational, and economic needs of Indiana citizens,” said Mitch Marcus, wildlife chief for the DNR Division of Fish & Wildlife, in a press release. “We initiated several regulation changes to make it easier to take antlerless deer. It appears the regulations may be working.”
