A new Michigan fishing season began Saturday, so it’s time to purchase new fishing licenses.
Annual fishing licenses and daily passes are available, as well as hunting and fishing combo licenses. The combos include a base license, an annual fishing license and two deer tags.
Anglers targeting lake sturgeon or muskellunge will also need to obtain free fishing and harvest tags from a local license retailer.
Licenses can be purchased from local license retailers or a DNR Customer Service Center, or online at mdnr-elicense.com.
