Now that bow season is here, reports of success have been spotty.
With the onset of EHD in Michiana, sightings are down in many areas but a few people have had success. According to Mark Freshour at Wallhangers Trophy Taxidermy in Constantine Mich. some of his customers had success in bow season's first week along with the youth seasons in Michiana. He has had a few bucks brought into his shop and that includes a couple of extremely nice bucks.
The Michigan DNR has been busy gathering the necessary eggs for the continued production of hatchery fish to support Michigans world-class fisheries. Fall egg takes are starting or are under way for wild Chinook and coho salmon and for captive broodstocks of brown, rainbow, brook and lake trout.
Chinook salmon eggs were collected at the Little Manistee River Weir while coho salmon eggs will be collected at the Platte River State Fish Hatchery Weir Oct. 15-23.
From these wild egg sources, we expect to collect nearly 4.4 million Chinook salmon eggs and nearly 5.5 million coho salmon eggs, said Gary Whelan, DNR fish production manager. The number of Chinook salmon eggs is 3.4 million less than last year as a result of Lake Michigan stocking reductions.
