Mississippi Ducks Attract With Motels In Sardis Reservoir
Mississippi creates duck motels in the Sardis Dam reservoir to lure southbound ducks during migration. The game commission and U S Fish and Wildlife Service developed ponds and planted crops to draw birds while enforcing limits. Since 1949 the refuge has boosted daily duck visits from under 100 to tens of thousands, drawing hunters nationwide.
