FMany boaters are hesitant to do more to care for a life jacket or personal flotation device (PFD) than occasionally spraying it down with water. This streamlined approach is often due to a fear of damaging the life jacket. But the truth is that proper cleaning actually helps maintain the integrity of a life jacket and can extend its life.
Fourteen Michiana Singles anglers found good fishing on the St. Joseph River at Maggies Landing last Thursday despite muddy water and strong current.

Hoosier Trout Season Opens Saturday, April 27, 2013

The 2013 Indiana stream trout-fishing season will open as scheduled this Saturday despite high water and swift current conditions.
Department of Natural Resources officials are urging anglers to exercise caution, especially if they are fishing around dams or in flooded streams.
“The combination of strong currents and cold, deep water makes it hard to maintain your footing when wading,” said Jeremy Price, DNR’s North Region fisheries supervisor. “This would be a good weekend to leave the waders at home and fish from the bank.”
Fishing conditions will be less than ideal at some locations and trout could be difficult to find. Price said the fish will be seeking refuge in deeper pools, eddies and the downstream side of rocks, woody debris and other structures in the stream.
More than 23,500 rainbow trout will be stocked into 19 streams across the state by Saturday morning.
Stream trout fishing in Indiana opens Saturday, April 27 at 6 a.m. local time and runs through Dec. 31. Anglers must have a trout stamp in addition to a fishing license to fish for trout.
The trout are produced at DNR’s Curtis Creek Trout Rearing Station in LaGrange County.
Anti-hunting Groups Threaten Sportsmen Bills
- Details
Michiganders have one chance to defend the right to hunt, fish and trap from out-of-state anti-hunters for good.
Scientific Wildlife Management legislation before the state senate will make sure that game management decisions are made by sound science, not ballot-box biology. If sportsmen don't take advantage of this opportunity, anti groups will come back to our state again and again to attack those rights to hunt, fish and trap.
