Introduced in 2005, the ChatterBait bladed jig was the result of years of experimentation by Ron Davis, Sr., a lifelong tinkerer with a background in research and development who refined blade shape, placement and vibration.

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.

Stocking larger fish in smaller numbers is paying off. Sylvan, Winona walleyes are plentifulEven though the DNR stocked fewer walleyes in Sylvan and Winona lakes during the past three years, studies show thats had no effect on the number of walleyes that survived.
That means anglers will find plenty of walleyes to catch in those northeastern Indiana lakes. It also appears to mean factors other than stocking rates play more important roles in determining walleye survival.
From 2001 through 2009, DNR fisheries biologists stocked fingerling walleyes annually at the rate of 20 per acre at Sylvan in Noble County and Winona in Kosciusko County. That rate was cut to 15 per acre from 2010 through 2012. Survival rates one year later were generally greater at the lower stocking rate than at the higher one.
