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.

Michigan Lowers Non-Resident Fees for 2015
- Details
The Michigan DNR announced that a discount of just over 10 percent has been approved for non-resident annual fishing licenses for 2015.
The cost of the non-resident annual fishing license will go from $76 to $68 starting on March 1.
The decision came during yesterday's meeting of the Natural Resources Commission.
Michigan's fishing license options originally were restructured March 1, 2014. Since that time a review of feedback from customers, local businesses and others suggested substantial merit in discounting the annual fishing license fee charged to non-residents. In response to those concerns the DNR has discounted the price.
"Discounting the non-resident annual fishing license will encourage more out-of-state visitors to come and experience Michigan's world-class fisheries - and the many other outstanding recreational opportunities available in this state," said DNR Director Keith Creagh.
