Abstract:

During early autumn, it is the time for the Tar Heel hunters to ready themselves for annual safaris into the tidelands for clapper rails or \"marsh hens.\" The importance of wind and tide in marsh hunting can't be overestimated, as it takes good \"grass covering\" high water to flush out the prey in order to find and shoot them.
