September first was the opening day of dove season. The thrill of the hunt starts off in the early morning hours for some hunters with the smell of fresh coffee being made, breakfast and gathering necessary items to make it through the day’s hunt. Hunters start off by searching for the best spots to potentially fill their bag limits. Each campsite provides the opportunity to enjoy the company of fellow hunters, friends, and family. 
CRIT Fish & Game is making their rounds during the hunt checking permits, as well as rifles to ensure that everyone is following proper guidelines while out on the hunt. Fish & Game would like to thank everyone who participated in this year’s Dove Hunt and would like to remind everyone to please pick up any loose shells or trash that may be left behind.
