Overall, we had a good hunt, said John Kimball of the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources. Hunter numbers were down about 40 percent on the marshes along the Great Salt Lake, and the areas to the north in Box Elder and Cache counties saw big increases in hunting pressure, and that was a good thing because of the high salt water lev- fwj. , ! iki 1:4 Willard Bay, has not been affected by salt water damage and SCOTT MONSEN I ' Staff Photo by Rodney Wright hunt. The opening day of the hunt was often more successful than predicted. TWO HUNTERS hide in the marshes during the opening of Saturdays duck drew double the number of hunters as in the past with success about the same as last year. In Box Elder County, Salt Creek and Public Shooting Grounds held heavier gun pressure and success. On average, hunters on those marshes generally brought home one to two birds on apiece, which is better than past better-than-expect- openings.

Each cold front that moves through will bring some birds in from the north and we have enough good marsh to hold them here for a while. If we get a long stretch of bluebird weather, that may hurt, but we are expecting some storms for the weekend which could make for some good shooting. Kimball also suggested that hunters do some scouting before going out. For example, he noted that because of salt water on the outside of Farmington Bay some first class marsh has developed closer to the headquarters building and could see some fair shooting after the opening SAVE BIG $ $ DURING 16th ANNUAL OPEN HOUSE OCT. 11-1- 10am-9p- 5 m BUY POLARIS GET FREE CLOTHES CATCH Dni QQC' PTLTr!:rni OOINOY Reg S4799 Now $4148 tax - Wit IlCzpOl TRAIL -- ispmjAU PRIZES REFRESHMENTS 480 N 1000 W CENTERVILLE Al Nov. 16, 1973, was instrumental in the development and opening of the first nine holes at the golf course, which officially opened in 1961. - t - guest-of-hon- or 0tanbarb-ixamin- pr GOB 0 MTEIL ; TAKE IT WITH YOU For all Your Hauling needs!
