A stream management zone has been established and maintained along the banks of Silver Creek. The lush, established food plots ensure year-round wildlife nutrition, attracting and sustaining wildlife throughout all seasons. Pine thickets further enrich the landscape, providing a variety of habitats for hunting and wildlife observation.
