    I'm curious. Are those two from Rhinelander Wisconsin? The reason I asked is that I'm 20 minutes from there. :tu:

    Fitz any word from the DNR? Seems to me like you're just hunting from an island! Although is it legal to shoot across water in MN? -Subscribed-

    The key message I think you need to covey is you dont intend to remove or alter the dam. It seems like there is a rule against such unless you have a permit.

    If it were a dam he would have issues altering it possibly, but its the lodge/den. The state is worried about water flow in the case of the dam, not so with the lodge. His worry from what I've gathered is that you can't take an animal from the water in MN? Fitz?

    I just re-sent my inquiry. I'm fairly sure it will be legal, I just want to make sure. We have stands set-up right there on either side of the dam, but the ground blind could be epic. Time will tell.
