Pte. Mouillee Shooting Club by Jim Marsh PDF Summary

Book Description: The Pte. Mouillee Shooting Club was in an excellent flyway and was located in the western basin of Lake Erie at the mouth of the Huron River near the mouth of the Detroit River. Pte. Mouillee was one of the greatest marshes in the state of Michigan with some of the best duck shooting in the country. It was an extraordinary club, having only ten members at a time. The members were very wealthy and many traveled long distances from several states to hunt at the Club. The Club existed in the golden age of waterfowling when there were few restrictions. They hunted in the spring and in the fall, there were no bag limits, they used live decoy ducks and fed ducks grain. A punt gun was used in the Pte. Mouillee area until they were outlawed. Many of the early members of the Club were live pigeon shooters and met at pigeon matches around the country. Ed Gillman founder of the Club was a state and world champion live pigeon shooter. Nate Quillin was Michigan's most famous early duck decoy makers and duck boat builder. Nate's decoys are famous all over the country and are prized by collectors. Nate made many decoys and boats for the members of the Club. The Club used the best decoys money could buy, Peterson, Dodge, Mason and Nate Quillin's decoys. The book also covers the early days of the State game area and the Michigan Duck Hunter's Tournament. The Club existed from 1875 to 1945 when the State of Michigan bought the marsh for a state game area. Now after over thirty years of research, we are ready to tell the story of what we think is a fascinating Club of a by-gone era. Much of out research was done as we traveled to several states while on vacation. The more we learned about the Club, The more intrigued we became.
