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.
Abu Garcia has added a new model to the Zenon spinning selection with the Zenon X.
This new model fills the gap by offering the flexibility to fish lightweight finesse style baits while also providing the power to handle heavier baits when needed.

I dont have to tell Michiana anglers the importance of spinning tackle fishing for bass and panfish in our lakes and rivers.
Youll probably find more spinning reels on the decks of area anglers boats than you will baitcasters. Thats not to say baitcast reels arent vital, but many of the techniques and line sizes used here match up better with spinning gear.

Indiana wildlife officials have announced their proposed dates for this falls duck and goose season.
The regular-season waterfowl dates, as proposed to the United States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) by the Indiana DNR, are listed below. The dates are not final until approved by the USFWS in mid- to late September. Look for another announcement around that time that will either confirm or amend these dates. Historically, they have been accepted as proposed.
