Only reason I think it is scheduled here is to keep the steelhead and walleye protected during their spawn.

All year long, except there is no taking of game fish, bass, trout, peacock bass or saltwater game fish. Good thing lake victoria perch and mullet are excellent tasting non game fish.

Our season begins when the outside temperature reaches 70 degress for 3 days in a row...which is usually mid to late April.
