It’s simple math really: Zero eggs equals zero fish for future stocking programs.
So, the spring walleye and steelhead egg collections by the Michigan DNR are critical components of the strategy for maintaining world-class fishing opportunities in the Great Lakes State.
Nearly fifty years have now passed since the first paddletail swimbaits splashed down in U.S. waters, the earliest designs having likely originated in France. Today, paddletails have almost singlehandedly rewritten the rules of soft plastics engagement. Fans of catching bass, crappie, walleye and inshore slams nearly always cast these ingenious tail-driven baits, each version capable of different retrieve speeds, actions and the almighty thump.

By LOUIE STOUT
Michiana bow hunters were greeted to a double-edge sword when their season opened this week.

On the downside, theres that nasty EHD virus that likely will reduce the size of the herd in many areas of Michiana.

Indiana Conservation Officers are investigating the death of a Rochester man that occurred during a hunting trip Sunday on private property in Fulton County.
Conservation Officers were called to the location near Rochester after receiving a report of a man who suffered a gunshot wound.
Kenneth Moore, 28, of Rochester, was shot and killed from an apparent single gunshot to the head. Moore was hunting with three friends at the time of the incident, including a 12 year old and two adults, while participating in the Indiana youth deer hunting season.
At some point, the hunting party split into two groups. Moore and the 12 year old were walking along a corn field when an adult shooter from the other group shot Moore.
