The 2018 Southeast Michigan Fisheries Workshop is your chance to hear directly from and interact with the scientists and organizations that are charged with protecting and managing our natural resources.   The annual Southeast Michigan Fisheries Workshop will be held on April 12 from 6 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. at Sportsmen’s Direct, 38989 Jefferson Avenue in Harrison Township, located just north of the entrance to Lake St. Clair Metropark.

Michigan State University Extension and Michigan Sea Grant, in partnership with the Michigan Department of Natural Resources Lake St. Clair Fisheries Research Station, and Sportsmen's Direct will be hosting this year’s workshop.

 In addition to providing a Lake St. Clair and Lake Erie fishery status update (how was the fishing) for 2017, speakers will discuss a muskie acoustic telemetry study, results from two decades of lake sturgeon assessments in the St. Clair River/Lake St. Clair and the 2017 Lake St. Clair creel survey results.
