GRENADA — The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Vicksburg District announces that Grenada Lake will host a special dove hunt Sept. 20-21, and registration will be open the last week of August.
This will be a draw hunt and will be held in two separate locations. Hunt area 1 is located north of Highway 332 between the Grenada Lake Dam and the Grenada Airport, and hunt area 2 is located at Grenada Waterfowl Refuge near Sabougla.
Registration for the hunt will be Aug. 25-29 at the Grenada Lake Visitor Center. You must be present to register and may not register other hunters.
Once drawn, each participant will receive a hunting packet with a map of the area and the regulations for the hunt.
“Grenada Lake is excited to continue this opportunity to kick off the fall hunting seasons,” said Natural Resources Specialist Will Clark.
To be eligible for this hunt, individuals must possess a valid Mississippi hunting license. Youth hunters, under the age 16, are not required to possess a hunting license, but they must hunt in the same location as a licensed adult.
A few points to keep in mind:
» Drawn applicants will be notified of their appropriate time and hunting date.
» Any missing or false information will result in a rejection of the application.
» All state and federal small game regulations will be enforced.
» Hunting will be permitted with shotguns only.
