Now that Michigan has restricted anglers to keeping one muskie per year and has implemented a harvest tag system, will Indiana muskie anglers face a similar change?
Not likelyat least for now.
Current rules allow Indiana-licensed anglers to take one muskie per day in Indiana. There are no limits in Indiana on the number of muskies an Indiana-licensed angler can take per year.
The only tags required in Indiana for harvest pertain to deer and turkey huntingnot fishing.

Try slip floats at night for walleyes.Walleyes have something in common with bats and owls theyre more suited to nighttime activities than the glare of the noonday sun. Theyd rather live in Moonglade than the Land of the Eternal Sunshine. Under certain conditions, such as following cold fronts, calm days or during unusually hot weather, walleyes are driven to the dark side by the bazillions.
Spring through early summer, a slip-float rig is the way to go at night, and few anglers know more about it than Wisconsin walleye guide Greg Bohn. Bohn is the author of several books and articles on the subject, and over the years designed plenty of rods, floats, leaders, rigs and jigs for slip-bobber tactics.
The Thill Splash Brite really simplified slip-bobber fishing at night, Bohn said. It has electrodes that use the lake water to complete the circuit. When it hits the water, the light comes on. Pull it out of the water, and its off.
Bohn says night fishing tends to be good whenever conditions are bad for daytime fishing.
