Bill overview
This bill, the SPEAR Act of 2025, aims to protect Wisconsin’s lake sturgeon population by exempting certain populations from the protections of the Endangered Species Act. It recognizes the state’s successful management plan for the Lake Winnebago sturgeon, which includes an annual spearing season. The bill prevents the Secretary of the Interior from listing these specific lake sturgeon populations as threatened or endangered. It preserves a long-standing tradition and supports local communities that rely on the sturgeon fishery.
