As hunters and anglers we're always looking for a good deal. Many times those deals are found in the off season or in discount sections at various online and other retailers. What if I told you, you could find a good discount and that the money you pay for your item goes into the State Fish and Wildlife Fund?
We've all heard stories about the poachers that have had their equipment confiscated because of their crimes and other equipment is just left in the field. Have you ever wondered what happens to that equipment? This weekend the Illinois Department of Natural Resources is hosting an auction in regards to confiscated and abandoned property.
The last time an auction was held was back in 2013 and it raised $53,145.00. If you're looking for a good time with food and good deals make sure to put this on your calendar for the weekend.
Read below to read the Illinois Department of Natural Resources Press release and the items up for auction.
