Entrance to Rider Marsh as it looks today… Jack’s fancy iron work is still there as it was several years back. Real hard to get into this entrance since the state of Ohio keeps it private. I tested 2 of the local DNR guys on duty in September of last year to see what they knew about the property and if I could get in (of course!). Both stated that there was a duck club “back there” and that’s all they knew. I explained to them that a guy by the name of “Jack Rider” once had a place back there….. They showed absolutely no interest. Then I asked about if it would be possible to go back and take a look…? They said “no”. I tried until they got irritated. Still hoping to get back in there soon.

Was reading your blog about Vern Rider and had a question. Did Vern ever belong to Pointe Mouille Waterfowlers in Michigan? Why I ask is my brother back in the early 60's bought a half dozen bluebill decoys off a member named Vern. He said he couldn't remember his last name. We just sold the last one a few days ago on Ebay. Nice looking decoy. Thanks
