How ’Bout Duck Shoot¬ 
ing This Season? 
If you’re a “regular” you know the grounds— 
if you’re not, listen. 
It concerns the reputation of Great South Bay. 
Followers of the sport have learned to meet the 
early migration of ducks, geese and brants along 
this inland sea which is sixty miles long and from 
two to five miles wide, for in its sheltered nooks 
and coves the flight loves to halt and linger till 
driven far south by the rigorous chill of winter. 
The famed Chesapeake Bay offers later shoot¬ 
ing, but none that is better. 
Better “tune-up” your sixteen or twelve-gauge 
and come down and join in the sport—there’s 
plenty of room for lots of guns and ducks and 
geese enough for all. 
In speaking of the Great South Bay, Mr. War¬ 
ren H. Miller describes it as: “A hunter’s and fish¬ 
erman’s paradise with the tang of the salt meadows 
and the call of the wildfowl everywhere.”

The season at Eagle Lake, Ticonderoga, 
New York, is marked by a protracted drouth, 
which is already (September 22) turning the 
white birch leaves yellow, and they strew the 
ground in heaps. There is scarcely any under¬ 
growth, even in young timber tracts, and the 
hearts of the early deer and grouse shooters 
are thereby made glad. 
The local association has just liberated a 
number of pheasants received from the State 
farm at Slielburn, New York, and these highly 
prized game birds are now feeding along the 
swales between this lake and Putnam’s Creek, 
a mile to the south, toward Ticonde.oga. 
Large catches of pike of great size are re¬ 
ported from a pond named after General Israel 
Putnam, the feeder of this creek. Week-end 
camping parties are constantly going there. 
This beautiful sheet of water, held in place by 
a high dam, is now State property, the old saw 
mill, formerly used to cut up the second growdi 
of spruce and pine in the Mt. Pharaoh region, 
being now unused. This creek is a noble trout 
stream, with rocks and rapids, and has now 
not a single mill along its five-mile course to 
Crown Point. The brown and speckled trout 
introduced by the State in this water are now 
taken of large size and afford great sport to 
both rural and city anglers. 
A short trip from Put’s Pond brings one to 
a small lake, locally called “The Grizzly Ocean,” 
where three kinds of trout may readily be 
taken by an expert angler. These fish are 
eagerly sought, but so full is the water of white 
shiners, introduced as food for the trout, that 
only an occasional fish can be induced to take 
your particular minnow, no matter how temp¬ 
tingly displayed. The pike in Put's Pond run. 
from three to ten pounds, and the trout from 
one to five pounds. 
In the vicinity is another very retired sheet 
of water bearing the mournful name of “Lost 
Pond,” which fairly swarms with large- and 
small-mouth bass. This little lake is now a 
part of a 100-acre tract of forest land lately 
purchased as a summer camp and game preserve 
by Mr. Pell, of New York city, the owner and 
restorer of old Fort Ticonderoga. He has al¬ 
ready cut a wagon road through from Chiliway 
Farm, a retired and formerly abandoned sec¬ 
tion, owned by Mr. Shaw, of Mamaroneck, New 
York, and a little rustic canoe house is the only 
mark of civilization on the shores of this beau¬ 
tiful mountain tarn. 
This little lake is only four miles north 
from Rogeis’ Rock, a well known summer re¬ 
sort on Lake George, and it is the intention to 
connect these two sheets of water by a buck- 
board or, at least, packhorse trail over the 
mountain. This will give vovageurs a direct 
route from Lake George to the Schroon Lake 
section. This trail is at present much used by 
hunters, trappers and berry pickers. 
Adjoining Mr. Poll's recent hardwood forest 
purchase and toward Eagle Lake lies the estate 
of a Ticonderoga attorney, now deceased, whose 
ambition was to form at Lost Pond a lawyers’ 
club, composed of members of the New York 
Bar. 
“Chiliwav” was so named by its former 
owner, a South American violin and mandolin 
teacher from New York, who fell in love with 
this old and retired spot years ago. He pur¬ 
chased the place, erected additions to the rude 
log house and built barns and outhouses. At 
great expense, this enthusiast dammed Lost 
Pond Brook and made a large artificial lake 
at the rear of his ranch house, stocking it with 
brook trout, more than forty pounds of which 
were fished out this year by the natives of the 
region. “Chiliway” has recently been turned 
over to a club of New York lawyers and other 
professional men and will be henceforth used 
as a hunting and camping lodge by those who 
want to enjoy rude Adirondack life without 
frills. Near the club house is an extensive 
cranberry bog or “mash,” as it is termed, which 
was formerly a famous place for the night jack¬ 
ing of deer, which are now again becoming 
abundant. 
The visitor is shown here the ruins and 
timbers of what is locally called "The Buried 
City," and which was apparently erected upon 
piles along the shores of this marsh which was 
formerly a lake. No one, not even the oldest 
inhabitant of this region, knows whence these 
people came or what ever became of them. 
The remains of ancient villages appear in vari¬ 
ous portions of Essex county, notably on the 
Crown Point peninsula opposite Port Henry on
