DNR announces
fall duck and
goose seasons
Minnesotas regular waterfowl season will open a halfhour before sunrise on Saturday,
Sept. 26, with similar bag limits
and season dates that were in
place last year, according to the
Department of Natural Resources.
While the season structure
is similar to recent years, we adjusted the duck season dates in
the south duck zone based on
hunter preferences, said Steve
Cordts, DNR waterfowl specialist.
The waterfowl seasons are
based on a federal framework
that applies to all states in the
Mississippi Flyway.

Vanna and I saw a doe and two fawns with their spots Friday
about 1 p.m. as they were lunching in the County Road 11 road
ditch. On Saturday we spotted one larger fawn in the same road
ditch, but didnt see its mother. Im guessing the deer flies, other
flys, ticks and mosquitoes are forcing the deer out of their brushy
habitat. So far I havent needed to use my bug hat in the park, but
after the weekend rain that may change, too. . .
I ran into
Jim Wackler, Howard Lake, at the Laker game Sunday evening
who is a died-in-the-wool angler, whether its panfish, bass, or
northerns. He commented about good sunfish fishing earlier, but
lately has been having a problem even finding a bass or sunfish
large enough to keep. Also at the game was Ray Moson (?), another
good baseball fan and friend of Brian Hedman, who enjoys angling, especially for sunfish. He showed me a photo of a 3/4 lb.
sunfish (about 12 1/2 inches) on his cell phone claiming he caught
it fishing on Granite Lake in 10 feet of water. I dont doubt that
there are some sunnies that large in Granite, but as the game wore
on, apparently Wacklers conscience started to bother him. He said
they, Ray, Brian and himself, concocted the story to give Granite
Lake credit when actually the fish was caught in Diamond Lake,
north of Atwater where Ray has a son living. All I can say is,
theyre upholding the tradition that anglers dont always tell the
truth! . .

There were a lot of loyal Laker fans who were stunned by the
outcome of Maple Lakes 10-inning 3-0 loss to Loretto on Sunday
evening. This was their second loss in the Region 12 playoffs eliminating them as a contestant in the state tournament. Mitch Wurm
pitched a great game, but the Lakers left too many men on base.
Going 28 innings without scoring a run pretty much tells why the
Lakers are out of the playoffs. . . During their season many
of the games were called after 7 innings because the Lakers were
ahead by at least 10 runs. Some of them were come-from-behind
wins which takes hits, something the Lakers never seemed to be
short of until their last three games . . . All in all it was a
great season for Maple Lake baseball fans and Id like to say
thanks to the Lakers for the entertainment they provided this summer. The nice part about those 7 inning games, they were over before the mosquitoes invaded the ballpark. None of us wanted the
season to end the way it did, but sometimes it happens that way
and no amount of second guessing will change it. A former Laker
manager, Bill Cruikshank, who was unable to make the last game,
Its in

Specialty Courts
A growing trend in Minnesota courts is the establishment of specialty courts, such
as drug courts, DWI courts, domestic violence courts, and veterans courts. A colleague
earlier this year wrote about
such courts as follows:
Solving problems may not
be the catch-phrase to enter
your mind when considering
the purpose of our court system.
However, that is an accurate description of the daily role of
judges throughout our states 87

Question: Can you talk
about the new increased fine if
cited for texting and driving?
Answer: Drivers who repeatedly choose texting over
safety while behind the wheel
risk a higher fine for violating
the law. Under the new enhanced law, drivers face a $225
fine for second and subsequent
violations of the texting while
driving law, in addition to the
current $50 fine. The $275 fine,
plus court fees, can cost an offender more than $300.
Minnesota Statute 169.471Texting is illegal, including
when stopped in traffic.
o No person may operate
a motor vehicle while using a
wireless communications device to compose, read, or send
an electronic message, when
the vehicle is in motion or part
of traffic.
o Also illegal to access the
web while the vehicle is in motion or a part of traffic.
o Its illegal for drivers with
a permit or provisional drivers
license to use a cell phone while
driving, except for emergencies
to call 911.
Distracted driving is a
leading factor in crashes each
year in Minnesota.
o
Distracted driving accounts for one in four crashes.
o Distracted driving is responsible for 60 deaths and 225
serious injuries each year.
o Driver inattention or distraction is the number one contributing
factor
in
multiple-vehicle crashes.

Everybody got a chance to read a book to Boone this week, the final meeting of the summer library program. Readers went home with the Maple Lake Business Bucks they earned with their weekly Paw Points, the journals theyve
been keeping all summer, a pawprint pencil, and a bookmark with Boones picture and his reminder to Remember
to Read!
Books with Boone will be back at the library next summer, when Boone hopes to see all of his old friends, along
with a few new young readers.
Pictured in the front are Kalli Hennen, Danica Hageman and Dylan Hennen. In the back are Ben Ogram, Lisa and
Boone, Carter Ertel, Hans Peterson, Larson Melgaard, Kenlyn Marsicek, Landon Marsicek and Christina Ogram.

The Catch
by Jeff Plattner
2015 College Football
Preview (Part I)
Unsurprisingly, last seasons
inaugural college football playoff was a smashing success.
How will the 2015 college football season compare, what
player will take home the Heisman Trophy, who will be among
the final four at seasons end,
what teams will be the odd ones
out, and who will be crowned
national champions when its all
said and done? Well take our
best shot at answering those
questions in this two-part preview of the 2015 college football season.
ACC
Predicted Atlantic Champ:
Clemson (11-1) The Tigers have
an early season test when they
take on Notre Dame and Georgia Tech in back-to-back weeks.
But, thankfully, both of those
contests take place at home, in
Death Valley, as does the
matchup that will ultimately decide the Atlantic division, versus
Florida State, on November 7th.
If QB Deshaun Watson is as
healthy as he claims he is, the
Tigers offense could be scary.
Watsons return to health, coupled with former Seminoles QB,
Jameis Winstons, exit to the
NFL, is why Clemson will escape against Florida State and
SEC
East Champ: Georgia (8-4)
In the seven games Todd Gurley
missed last season, RB Nick
Chubb filled in and the Bulldogs
didnt miss a beat. Chubb averaged 168 yards rushing in those
games and scored 10 TDs. With
the QB position up in the air,
Georgia will rely heavily on
their ground attack and Chubbs
is sure to earn Heisman consideration. Beginning October 3rd,
the Bulldogs schedule gets
pretty ugly. In consecutive
weeks, they host Alabama,
travel to Tennessee to play a
Volunteers team making plenty
of pre-season noise, then its
back home to host reigning SEC
East champ, Missouri, and down
to Jacksonville, to take on
Florida. If that isnt enough, two
of their last three are on the road
at Auburn and Georgia Tech.
West Champ: Auburn (11-1)
Im buying the hype on QB Jeremy Johnson. Hes 65, 240lbs., can run and deliver the ball
from the pocket. Sound familiar? Johnson may remind some
folks of Cam Newton, who led
Auburn to a title in 2010. The
Tigers struggled last year, but in
addition to Johnson, there will
be several new faces, via transfer, incoming freshmen, and others returning from injury.
Another new face is defensive
coordinator Will Muschamp, the
former Florida Gators head
coach, who is sure to fix what
was often a Swiss-cheese defensive unit in 2014. Auburns season will hinge on whether or not
