does anyone know what the fine is for running during quite period in mich? not that I`m going to run just wondering.

I'll let ya know if I ever get caught!

Steve, ya need ta load them ol hounds bring them down here and MAKE ALL THE NOISE YA WANT. NO QUITE PERIOD HERE.

75 been caught twice, but that was ten years ago, not smart enough to quit running though.

What is this quiet period about?

Michigan hunters can`t run rabbits from April 15 till July 8th.

Some guys I know get permits from the dnr to run "fox" ...lol but the thing I don't get is what if the C O wants to see the game the dogs are runnin and its a rabbit?

just tell them that you have been trying to break them off trashs LOL

A person can get a permit to run in a designated training area from the DNR. The permit is renewable every 3 years and best of all it's free. One just has to fill out the form showing where in the section the training area is. It does not need to be fenced but signs must be put up every 150 feet around the designated area.

I had these signs made for my 5 acre running pen so I could still use it during the nesting season. My pen has been a designated training area for the last 12 years.


Also one does not need to be the land owner, You just need their permission ,address,and phone number for the permit application.

Rule #1 ....Dont get caught....

I only run solo during the quite season only in a couple spots that I feel safe doing it, If I was to be seen I can get 1 dog on a lead faster then I can a pack of them ... , Just taking a dog for a walk is not against the law ....

Well, don't know how much it cost, don't care. We had 15 dogs out last night. Great fun. I do not turn loose until the turkey hunters are out of the woods because I don't want to hear them bitch, but, other than that, I have never been bothered.

We have a permit for year around running as well.....

Never been caught and still run in the same places. I ran yesterday on state ground for 4 hours

Good man ! I run on 2 property's (110 acres combined) that is private and no one but me should be there so that makes it easier for me to not have to worry about turkey hunters
