Summary

The Beaver Island Wildlife Club reported a reorganized board, 7,000 pounds of corn and 40 blocks of trace-mineral salt for winter feeding, and plans to add feeding stations because deer as well as turkeys were using the program. It also planned spring 2000 fish stocking and reported successful recent stocking at Fox Lake, Lake Geneserath, and Greene’s Lake.

Evidence limits

This is a club report of supplies and plans; it does not independently measure feeding effects, fish populations, or later stocking results.
