Rooster pheasants will be released on 13 state game/wildlife areas throughout southern Michigan this fall. Releases will take place today-Nov. 14 and Dec. 1-31, coinciding with pheasant hunting seasons.
Indiana DNR has made big changes to Indiana’s deer hunting rules. These changes are in effect for the 2025-2026 hunting season. The changes were made, in part, to make Indiana’s hunting regulations easier to understand.
Lund Boats announced the launch of its boldest innovation yet: the Heavy Gauge (HG) Series. Crafted from heavy-gauge aluminum and engineered to conquer the toughest conditions, the HG lineup is designed for anglers and outdoor enthusiasts who demand strength, performance, and all-day versatility on the water.

More Walleye Stocked in Indiana St. Joe
St. Joseph River walleye fishing got another shot in the arm last week with a strong stocking of hatchery fish.
Walleyes are planted in the Indiana section of the St. Joe every other year. Michigan plants them on upstream and downstream sections in alternate years.
Last week’s stocking consisted of 9,260 by the Indiana DNR at Maggies Landing in Mishawaka and another 2,000 compliments of the Michiana Walleye Association at Midway Bait and Tackle boat ramp in Osceola. The DNR stocking was about 1,000 more fish than it stocked in 2015. The club stocking remained the same as 2015.
All of the fish were purchased from the Gollon Fish Hatchery in Wisconsin which has provided the river walleye stockings for the past few years.
The recently stocked fish averaged 7 inches long with some larger.
