After only 17 minutes of fishing, this year’s sturgeon season on Black Lake (in Cheboygan and Presque Isle counties) ended at 8:17 a.m. Saturday, Feb. 1. The season, which included spearing and hook-and-line fishing, was scheduled to run Feb. 1-5, or until the harvest quota of six lake sturgeon had been reached.Â

Whitetail DeerThe last thing you want to worry about when deer hunting is if you have the right license for the right deer season.
The new deer license bundle makes such worries a thing of the past. With it, one license can be used in multiple seasons. The bundle can be used in youth, archery, firearms, muzzleloader, and special antlerless seasons, and allows for the harvest of one antlered and two antlerless deer. All legal equipment that can be used in these seasons may be used withthe deer bundle, including crossbows.

St. Joseph County Parks will continue the deer management program at Spicer Lake Nature Preserve in New Carlisle this November.
Spicer Lake consists of 320 acres, much of which is wetland. The uniqueness of the kettle hole lake habitat harbors a number of threatened plant and animal species. Evie Kirkwood, County Parks Director, says that park staff has noted a decrease in key indicator plant species such as trillium and sweet cicely correlating to an increase in the white-tailed deer population.
The deer management hunt will take place on November 17 and 18, 2012. To emphasize deer population reduction, the management program will be an antlerless hunt.
