No More Blinds
ON Grass Lake

The new rule that has gone into eff
feet this year that prohibits the use of
artificial hunting blinds extending be-
yond the shore line is said to have been
brought about largely by the abuse of
the privilege at Grass Lake in Lake
county,.
1t is said that series of these blinds
have been set up from year to year at
various vantage points. When hunters
came along they found that it would be
necessary for them to pay as high as
SIS for the use of one of these blinds.
The hunters who did not accept these
terms found it practically impossible
to hunt, for they could not get near
enough to the game. Many complaints
were made as a result.
This year it is aimed to place every
hunter on an equal basis, for they will
not be able to establish themselves in
blinds before the shore line.
Deputy game wardens plan to visit
the various lakes, especially Grass Lake
and destroy all the blinds which do not
comply with the regulations.
Hunters say that while the two hours
hunting daily on Fox Lake will not re-
suit in the bagging Of many ducks, that
it will have the effect of driving ducks
to other lakes and improve general
hunting conditions. Ducks are said to
be quite plentiful this year.
