Frozen Chosen and successful spearer videos
Dear Winnebago Sturgeon spearing enthusiasts:
Last week I sent out an email about a documentary entitled the “Frozen Chosen” which premiered in Fond du Lac on February 6, 2014. I stated that the documentary would air on Milwaukee Public Television a couple of days this week. However, due to increased interest in the video and that most residents in this area of the state do not receive that channel, director Steve Boettcher has made the documentary available through YouTube at the attached link below. I spoke with Steve this morning and he informed me that the video would only be available through the link until the end of February. So if you plan to watch the video, I would make plans to do so in the next couple of weeks. Enjoy the film!
Also, in yesterday’s report I chronicled a few success stories from this year’s spearing season. Our communications staff here at the DNR have put together two videos from interviews captured from successful spearers and those videos can be accessed at:
