Michigan DNR – Press Release
April 10, 2015
Contact: Christian LeSage, 517-284-5822 or Nick Popoff, 517-284-6235
The Natural Resources Commission finalized several regulations impacting the 2015-2016 fishing season at its meeting on April 9. Fishing regulations are adjusted annually to ensure Michigan’s fisheries resources are managed properly and to provide the best benefits to anglers and the public.
Due to the Natural Resources Commission’s temporary loss of regulatory authority, several regulations were not determined in time for the start of the 2015-2016 angling year (April 1) and consequently were not printed in the hard-copy version of the Michigan Fishing Guide. However, there are several areas of the guide that have an orange star to indicate that changes possibly would be forthcoming.
To see all the changes and to download a PDF with those changes, please visit the Michigan Department of Natural Resources
