By BILL McNUTT The hunting season is now well underway, but, the lack of frost in the area has made it far from the best ever. The pheasants which were released have taken to the corn fields where they are extremely difficult to hunt. Until the corn is harvested the only way to get them will be by driving the fields with blockers at the ends. Once the harvest is complete, things will be easier and the birds will be in full color, so hunting should be good for pheasants by then. Goose seem to be plentiful but, because we have had no frost, the leaves are all on the trees and shooting them is very difficult. The woodcock had a very good year and there are lots of local birds in the area but again with all the leaves on are very hard targets to hit. Once we have some frost we should have excellent shooting in the area. The Northern birds should arrive just as the leaves fall this will combine to make easier shooting with more birds. A word of caution should be mentioned that there is no open season to Bobwhite Quail. There seem to be a few in the area so be sure of what your shooting before you shoot. The rabbit hunters tell me that they believe the population is low and some which were shot were not fully grown yet. There is lots of cover yet and few will be shot for a few weeks. Local ducks did well this spring and there seems to be lots around but the northern birds have yet to arrive. Teal and wood ducks have done well this year in our area and in addition we have a few shovellers and widgeons around. This trend should continue as long as the Ausable River and Black Creek remain uncleaned in Hay and Stephen. The beaver dams produce lots of good breeding habitat for local ducks as well as resting areas for migrants. All of our local sportsmen should keep an eye on these to see that they remain for the benifit of all. Large flocks of Canada Geese are being sighted on the lake but few are being taken. This will likely remain the trend until the corn is harvested and the birds move inland to feed in the fields. Again as usual on opening day we had many game law vialations and crowding of good hunting spots. The latter is a sign of the need for more wetland in our area. There seems to be less every year so lets try and protect what we have or even create more. There are many organizations devoted to creating wetlands. One thing we could use in our area is a local chapter of "Ducks Unlimited!’’ Anyone in terested give me a call at 235-1886 after dark! In the “B” flight, Mark Cronyn was best with a gross score of 81. Al Taylor was second at 86. The balance of the gross winners were Pete McFalls, Red Fairley and Dick Etherington.
