Great Day with Son Russ - Marsh Mishap - Premier Duck Season of 1938 On March 15, 2016 Don Miescke (83 yrs.old) of Horicon, WI shared his family history and stories from the Horicon Marsh. Don is a hunter, historian of the Horicon area and author of the book "Horicon Marsh History". Memories of a great day on the marsh, hunting ducks with his son Russ. Getting wet with a duck overhead and his gun shot sending him overboard falling out of his boat.  After several seasons of low water on the Horicon Marsh, the Fall of 1938 brought water which resulted in great shooting and an abundance of ducks on the Marsh.
