Hunting
Hunting, Fishing, Nature, tradition
** Geese, Ducks, Coots, Mergansers, Swan — During the fall migrations thousands of potholes and sloughs attract migrating ducks in countless numbers, bolstering an already huge population of birds hatched and raised in the state.
**Our deer archery seasons begin in early fall. Deer gun season – the most popular among residents – begins in early November.
**Coyote and fox hunting seasons are open year around to residents and nonresidents. Late fall and winter offer the best hunting.
*** Tolna Dam is a great place to camp and fish. It is located 1 mile south and 2 miles east on Hwy. 15.
Camping is first come first serve basis. Power available, free will offering box on pole. Boat ramp and dock make fishing easily accessible.
