Limited Pats Per Day And New Game Rules
Grouse hunters face a three pelt limit per day in the northern Lowes peninsula this fall, two fewer than last year’s Zone II bag. Black squirrels become legal game nationwide under the new law starting this year in Clare Cheboygan and Isabella counties. The Upper Peninsula hosts a September 1 15 bear season, extends last year’s Chippewa county limits, and Delta county west of the Escanaba River hosts a brief pheasant season. Deer and waterfowl rules are to be discussed at the August commission meeting.
