Welcome, introductions: Frank and Tim welcomed everyone, and all present introduced themselves. Walleye season opener for the Northern Lower Peninsula discussion (Dave Borgeson, MDNR Northern Lake Huron Unit Manager) Frank provided a quick background to set the stage for the walleye season discussion. Dave shared a presentation crafted by Patrick Hanchin that explained the recent history and exploitation rates of select studied walleye populations in the Northern Lower Peninsula. A list of the season changes since 1986 are listed below: There have been many changes to statewide walleye seasons over the years. The expanded season in 1987 was designed to increase fishing opportunity following general positive responses of walleye populations after improvements to habitat and walleye stocking.

  • Download the Inland Waterway and Straits Area Water Trails Plan
    Water Trail Plan Inland Waterway and Straits Area Cheboygan and Emmet Counties Funded by: Office of Ocean and Coastal Resource Management, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce and the Michigan Coastal Management Program, Michigan Department of Environmental Quality with support from the Emmet County, Cheboygan County, Mackinaw City, and volunteers. June 2014 1 Inland Waterway and Straits Area Water Trail Plan Introduction The Inland Waterway is a 40 mile long historic water route that connects Lake Huron by way of Cheboygan, Indian River, Alanson, and Conway and with series of long portages at the headwaters to Petoskey State Park and Lake Michigan. A coastal route, part of the Huron Shores Blueways, connects the City of Cheboygan to Mackinaw City and the Straits of Mackinac. Like the interior water trails, the coastal waters have been used for transportation for thousands of years. The Inland Waterway has long been marketed as the motor boating paradise. Sitting along the banks of the Indian River on a summer afternoon and watching a steady stream of motored craft pass by, attests to the marketing success. There has never been a multi-community effort to organize and promote a paddle trail. Human-powered quiet water sports are among the fastest growing outdoor recreation activities. Combined with other active sports facilities such as the North Central State Trail, North Western State Trail and the North Country Trail, the water trail will bring visitors to the area, add to the quality of life for residents and enhance the rural-recreation sense of place. Furthermore, development of the water trail represents a regional, multi organization effort and will support economic development in the region of the state dependent upon recreational visitors.

  • A Lake Named Douglas
    Douglas Lake, in Cheboygan County of Northern Michigan, is a beloved spot for many, including the author and his family. That connection and the author’s passion for history led to this: a well-researched look at lake and region. The author completed this effort of many years near the end of his life, with editing help from his daughter. And there was still more he wished to learn about . A Lake Named Douglas Its history in brief By Gordon L. Dolton ©2014 A Lake Named Douglas By Gordon L. Dolton Edited by Gail Dolton Blaskowski Introduction Scan a map of Northern Michigan and it's easy to overlook the oddly shaped blue-filled outline in favor of its better-known watery siblings. Between the town of Pellston and Interstate 75 is where you’ll find Douglas Lake. Yes, that's Burt Lake just south and popular Mullett Lake close by. By the numbers, Douglas Lake is a substantial lake, but it is an obvious third in its neighborhood. It is a disconnected shirttail on the well-known inland waterway between Great Lakes Huron and Michigan. Still, Douglas has significance in the fabric of Northern Michigan as a gathering place, resource and playground. Generations of many -- Native Americans, farmers, entrepreneurs, resorters -- have ties to the lake. Important also is how Douglas Lake has figured prominently in research and education for scientists and students, who still work along its shores to explore and understand the natural world. One of the most powerful transformative natural forces in Earth’s history gave Douglas Lake its start.
