They caught it on camera (Whitnall Park for you WI folks). I was detecting that park and found a crossbow arrow. DNR/sherrif dept and city cops came out (I called it in due to news clip). Was talking to the officers for awhile and I asked the DNR guy why we cannot hunt in Lake MI and on state properties. He thought is was a stupid law too. The sheriff said "Really? that is a horrible law. You guys tend to clean things up and take dangerous things like hooks out of the water". I said bingo and looked at the DNR guy and said, time for some change. How do we go about it. His response was good luck, it will take an act of God
