Fishing Licence for Unit E
Anyone 17+ needs a Michigan DNR fishing licence — the resident annual all-species licence is about $26, the non-resident annual about $76, and 1-day and 3-day all-species licences are sold. Michigan folded the old separate trout/salmon stamp into the base all-species licence in 2014, so one licence covers everything including trout, salmon and the Great Lakes; there is no separate stamp. Michigan residents 65 and older buy a reduced-price senior licence, and anglers under 17 fish free. Buy from the DNR at Michigan.gov/DNRLicenses. A Michigan all-species fishing licence covers this water. The Great Lakes and connecting waters are covered by the same base licence; some reaches are shared reciprocal water with Wisconsin, Ohio, Indiana or Ontario.
Trout / salmon & border waters
Michigan folded the old trout/salmon stamp into the all-species base licence in 2014 — one licence covers inland trout, the Great Lakes salmon fishery, Lake St. Clair muskie, everything; there is no separate stamp
Designated trout streams (Type 1–4) and trout lakes (Type A–F) each carry their own season, gear and creel rules — many streams stay open all year for catch-and-release
Lake Erie's western basin is fished on a Michigan or Ohio licence in the reciprocal zone; the Menominee and other border waters on a Michigan or Wisconsin licence
