Federal Migratory Bird Hunting and Conservation StampThe Federal Migratory Bird Hunting and Conservation Stamp, or "Duck Stamp," will increase in price for the first time in 24 years.
The cost will go from $15 to $25. The increase adjusts for inflation over the last 24 years. Several conservation organizations, including Ducks Unlimited and Delta Waterfowl, support the increase.
The 2005 National Duck Hunter Survey showed that 65 percent of U.S. duck hunters spent more than $250 per season.

Indiana biologist Jamie Pejza shows off a Lake of Woods walleye netted during survey.The St. Joseph River isnt the only burgeoning walleye fishery on South Bends doorstep.
Indiana biologists say a pretty good one continues to show promise at Lake of the Woods in Bremen.
Biologist Tom Bacula spent a few days last month sampling the lakes walleye population with a netting project and came away pretty satisfied.
I am pretty happy with the catch of 15- to 18-inch walleyes we saw, said Bacula. They looked very healthy and had great color. We didnt get any of the giants Ive heard anglers talk about, but some nice keeper fish.
The DNR gang set fine mesh traps on sand bars in water 5 to 7 feet deep then checked them daily.
