If you fish in the Upper Peninsula, you know about Lake Gogebic. The Michigan Department of Natural Resources (DNR) is hosting an in-person public hearing to discuss a change to the walleye regulations for Lake Gogebic.
There has never been a more important time in sportsmen’s history than now to protect our way of life. The only way we will be able to slow down the animal extremists is by being more actively involved and engaged in the process of protecting our values, rights, and heritage at every level.
Michigan anglers can do just that at this public hearing on Tuesday, Jan. 21. This meeting is from 6-8 p.m. and is held at the Marenisco Village Township Hall, 314 Hall St. in Marenisco.
The regulation change being considered is regarding slot limit. The limit prohibits possessing any walleye measuring between 18 inches and 23 inches, but allows anglers one walleye measuring 23 inches or greater in their daily limit of five fish.
It is important for DNR to hear from us, the sportsmen, if we want to protect our heritage. If we don’t, you can guarantee that the animal extremists will fill the void. They are already in other states, cratering our hunting, fishing, and trapping traditions from the inside out. We cannot let that happen in the UP and Michigan.
We each must make a commitment to ourselves and future generations to stand up to fight, protect, and defend against the rising tide of animal extremism. When America’s sportsmen stand together, we remain our nation’s most powerful political force. It is time we take back what is ours by ensuring we stay fully engaged in the fight.
Share this email with your family and friends and get a commitment from them to kick in when needed. Our values must be secured today, and together, we can secure our cherished traditions for future generations.
