If you got delayed at the gas station or donut shop on your way to the Black Lake sturgeon season you likely missed the entire season.
The highly regulated, annual possession season in Michigan – open to hook-and-line fishing or spearing – began at 8 a.m. on Feb 1. It ended just 17 minutes later when the six-fish limit had been reached. By the time the word got out that the season had ended one more lake sturgeon had been iced.
