her you go bubba [I voted for the rattles snake hunt with wippits ] Swan Lake Public Comment

Dear Delta Member,

As you may know, Delta Waterfowl followed with great interest, proposed management changes at Swan Lake National Wildlife Refuge a number of years ago. Early on in the process, Delta and a number of other stakeholders had serious concerns about some of the proposals and their implications for waterfowl and waterfowl habitat, but much to the credit of the USFWS staff, those concerns were promptly addressed.

Currently, the Refuge is soliciting public feedback about the new proposed hunting plan. As a duck hunter and key stakeholder in the outcome of the plan, we wanted to share the information with you.

Here are a couple of key points:
•Existing goose hunting areas will be opened to all waterfowl hunting, this now means increased duck hunting opportunities on the refuge
•The current acreage open to hunting is similar as it has been in the past
•The refuge is considering draw options to manage hunting pressure and provide high quality hunting opportunities

These are just summary points. For more information please visit:

Please provide direct feedback to refuge planners via hard copy to:

Swan Lake NWR

Thank you for your help to provide the Service with information in how they can best serve the duck hunters of
