The Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency announced that three hunters pleaded guilty to illegal duck hunting.

Dalton Giles, 23, Stephen Giles, 50, and Justin Thompson, 30, pleaded guilty on Wednesday to charges of hunting in a baited area, violation of the daily bag limit of redheaded ducks, violation of gross limit of waterfowl, use of lead shot, hunting without proper waterfowl license and violation of federal duck stamp.

TWRA said officials cited the men in January while they were hunting a farm pond baited with corn near Watkins Road.

All three men were ordered to pay fines and court costs totaling $5,140, lost their hunting privileges for one year and forfeited three shotguns.buy essay
