Michigan: Black Lake sturgeon season opens Feb. 6

Eager for the chance to catch one of Michigan’s most unique fish? The lake sturgeon season on Black Lake in Cheboygan County begins at 8 a.m. Saturday, Feb. 6, and registration is open until Feb. 5.

A new online registration processis required to participate, as well as a current Michigan fishing license for anyone 17 or older. Anglers must certify that they understand and will abide by the rules and safety requirements.

The catch quota this year is six lake sturgeon total. In the past, the season quota often has been met within the first day – sometimes in just a few hours! However, the season will last until the sixth fish is harvested, or five fish have been harvested at the end of any day from Feb. 6-10. Daily season fishing hours are 8 a.m. to 2 p.m., and the season will end at 2 p.m. Wednesday, Feb. 10, or when one of the two scenarios previously mentioned is met.

Anglers will receive text messages announcing the beginning of the season, and as each fish is harvested until the season closes. Read more

On the subject of recoil, a new SoftFlex™ cheek pad and new Inflex recoil pad have also been added to improve shooting comfort and control. The new stock can be trimmed for a shorter length of pull or increased with the included spacers. Shims are included to adjust cast and drop at comb. Rubber overmolding on the stock and new forearm improve traction in all conditions. A new screw-on style forearm cap makes disassembly easy. Read more

Social-Distancing Can Save Wild Sheep

“Social-distancing” is a term most hope disappears from the lexicon soon.

While the concept of keeping a safe distance during the COVID-19 pandemic is wisdom, losing the connection to others is challenging for humanity.

For wild sheep, social-distancing is essential.

Domestic sheep and goats can transmit a form of pneumonia to bighorn and thinhorn sheep that is devastating to herds. It is so devastating that more than two million that existed at the time of Lewis & Clark’s expedition declined to around 25,000 by the early 1900s.

“Wildlife agencies and conservation groups have done a remarkable job of bringing them back to around the 150-175,000 range, but there is still a major problem with exposure to domestic sheep. Die-offs are occurring in pockets right now in states like Oregon and Utah,” said Chester Moore, an award-winning wildlife journalist and founder of Higher Calling Wildlife. Read more
