Effort is on to raise $200,000 to restore dam on Michigan’s Cornwall Creek Flooding

Featured, Fishing, Home Page News, Michigan, National News, Nature Page & Night Sky, News /

Michigan’s Cornwall Creek Flooding, scheduled last summer to be drawn down and the dam removed, has a chance to survive. But it’s going to take financial support from the public to save it.
Cornwall Creek Flooding covers 167 acres. It rests in the middle of the fabled 110,000-acre Pigeon River Country State Forest, the largest block of continuous public land in the Lower Peninsula.

When solid ice finally arrives (with frigid temps in the immediate forecast, here’s hoping that day will be soon) it’s a good bet that anglers will be enjoying success on Ionia County’s Morrison Lake.

Featured, Hunting, Michigan, National Hunting, National News, News /

Hunters across Michigan produced a good safety record in 2023.
Through all 12 months and several different hunting seasons, there was a total of just 10 firearms-related incidents (accidents) and no fatalities.
“It was a good year because we didn’t have any fatalities. As far as the pure number of incidents, we were about average, but the injuries were relatively minor,” Sergeant Cary Foster of the DNR’s Law Enforcement Division told Michigan Outdoor News.

Lake Profile, Lake Profile, Michigan /

Close to 50,000 spring walleye fingerlings have been stocked in Iosco County’s Five Channels Impoundment since 2017.
But following 2022’s plant of 22,766 fingerlings, the DNR ended the stocking program on the 237-acre impoundment on the Au Sable River in Iosco County. The stocking report on the impoundment says, “natural reproduction is sufficient to provide a small walleye fishery,” said DNR Fisheries Biologist Matt Klungle.
