Michigan DNR to host talks on state’s fisheries
LANSING – If you’ve got questions about fishing in Michigan and 2022 fishing regulations, catch one of the upcoming “Conversations & Coffee” events, running March 9 through April 7.
These events, built around regional Department of Natural Resource fisheries management throughout the state, cover changes to local and statewide regulations and other topics related to taking care of fisheries and aquatic natural resources on inland lakes, streams and the Great Lakes.
They’re also an opportunity to meet fisheries managers and biologists, provide feedback on regulations proposals, discuss local issues and management activities, and get specific questions answered.
Some meetings will be hosted in person; others will only be offered virtually. For more information go to the DNR’s Conversations & Coffee web page at https://www.michigan.gov/dnr/0,4570,7-350-79119_79146_81211-463998–,00.html.
