In Michigan.....HB 6271 will result in spearing season starting dec 1 rather than jan 1, passes both houses, waiting on signature of Gov.... yes!

Department of Natural Resources Director Rebecca Humphries signed fisheries orders that extend the spearing season through the ice for pike and muskellunge in certain waters, extend the whitefish spearing season on the Great Lakes and connecting waters, allow all anglers to use three rods, and establish a two-gallon limit on smelt.
The spearing season for pike and muskie will now run from December 1 - March 15, instead of just January and February and the whitefish spearing season will now be open year-round. The new seasons are the result of legislation enabling the DNR to set spearing regulations.
These regulations take immediate effect.

I hate the DNR some times >:( , why do they have to write something like this and then put in the words "IN CERTAIN WATERS" and then not say what waters are excluded from spearing. They might be referring to the designated trout lakes but if this was the case than why didn't they just say that ??? .
