IRON MOUNTAIN — The spring turkey season opens Saturday, April 22, in the Upper Peninsula, running through May 31.

Wisconsin hunters will get a head start with a youth hunt this weekend, followed by six, seven-day hunting periods that open Wednesday and conclude May 30.

Hunters and public land users may be sharing fields and forests during the season and need to be aware and alert of others in their area. Hunters should follow safety rules, and non-hunters enjoying public lands should consider wearing blaze orange, the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources advised.

Hunters, meanwhile, are reminded that wearing the wrong color could present a risk. It’s especially important to avoid wearing red, white or blue. If a fellow hunter sees a flash of those colors through the brush, you could be mistaken for a turkey.

In Marinette County, Wis., anglers were reporting good walleye fishing on the lower Peshtigo and Menominee rivers. In the bay of the Peshtigo River, many walleyes seemed to be staging along the shore, the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources said.

Casting hair jigs, rip-n-raps and trolling stick baits were all producing fish. A few big ones upwards of 30 inches were reported caught as well.

Vertical jigging or trolling 3-way rigs with stick baits was popular towards the mouth of the Menominee River.

The third meeting in a series of four public meetings of the Lake Michigan Lake Trout Commercial Harvest Stakeholder Group will take place at 6 p.m. Tuesday. The purpose is to present information and gather public feedback on the Lake Michigan lake trout population.

The public can join in-person in Cleveland, Wis. or virtually by registering via Zoom. More information is available at https://dnr.wisconsin.gov/newsroom/release/72276.

The Michigan DNR reported this Upper Peninsula activity:

Little Bay de Noc: Anglers were done ice fishing the bay and awaiting the end of any remaining ice.

Big Bay de Noc: Shoreline ice remains in Ognontz Bay, while ice in Garden Bay was melting and will likely be open soon.

Keweenaw Bay/Huron Bay: All ice has been cleared from Lake Superior in Keweenaw Bay and nearly all ice has left Huron Bay. Anglers were out sporadically with some luck fishing for whitefish in the mornings. All fish were caught near bottom however numbers were low. With temperatures on the rise and snow melting, anglers expect fish to be near river mouths and fishing to continue to pick up as the weather moves fully into spring.

Traverse Bays/ Portage Canal: Launches have begun to open as the waterways near the canal and the Big Traverse River are open.

Au Train: The dock was in at the Brownstone and there were a couple boats out throughout the week in Au Train. Boat anglers had success catching coho salmon near Au Train Island while trolling spoons. There were no reports of any fish being caught from the mouth of the Rock River and no reports of any fish from within the river.

Les Cheneaux/Detour: The ice was slowly breaking up and started to crystalize making it unsafe. There were a couple people who fell through in Musky Bay — please use caution. The boat launches and piers were not fishable yet either.

Marquette: Fishing activity increased in the Marquette area. Boat anglers in lower harbor were successful with catching coho salmon while trolling bright colored spoons. Anglers fishing from the breakwall had some success catching coho while using spoons and spinners. In the Carp River, some coho were caught from the mouth and a few rainbow trout were caught while drifting spawn in the river.

Grand Marais: A few boat anglers were out with scattered reports of coho, brown trout, rainbow trout caught while trolling with small crankbaits. Anglers were mainly trolling in shallow water. A few anglers were out on the pier and reported a few catches of coho while using spawn.

Munising Bay: Anglers reported only a few catches of coho and herring. Ice conditions were dwindling. Ice was still present off the Anna, but a large majority of the bay was open.
