Summary

The September 2011 Beacon publishes hunting information for Beaver Island, including the reported DMU 115 antler-point requirements for first and second bucks, 500 antlerless permits, and turkey-permit availability after August 29. The November issue identifies 2011 as the first year of the new antler-point restrictions and asks hunters to contribute biological and harvest data through checks, surveys, or photographs.

Evidence limits

This records the newspaper’s summary of the rules. It does not reproduce the complete state regulation, establish how many permits were issued, or document the season’s harvest.
