BARAGA, MI (AP)-- A Baraga County prosecutor says he has no problem with people fishing in a motorboat in his county under certain conditions.
Joseph O’Leary says there’s nothing in Governor Gretchen Whitmer’s order that specifically bans riding in a motorboat, but that’s not how the order has been explained by the governor’s office. Critics are suing.
O'Leary says he has no problem with two people fishing at opposite ends of a boat. O'Leary has a different opinion about groups in a boat.
Dozens of people protested the governor’s order by fishing out of motorized boats at the Baraga Marina on Sunday.
