FIRELANDS OUTDOOR NOTEBOOK - Walleye anglers must follow special rules

It's happening again. Lake Erie walleye are ascending the Sandusky and Maumee rivers, following a migration pattern that hasn't changed for thousands of years. And anglers are again standing on the shores of both rivers or wading green waters to cast and bring home some fine eating with minimum effort. It's important to note that while these thousands of fish are accessible to anglers along much of the length of both rivers, there are some special regulations that must be followed in certain areas.
