Re: Out of state hunters
Pewee..this area is still draw..for deer hunting with a rifle anyway. Duck hunting they tell you what parts of the area you can hunt on certain days. Of course you can't hunt it at all without your Annual User Permit (used to be $15) but you are correct, the hunting has gone down in the last several years, I am not blaming anyone person or group, I think it is a culmination of things that has lead to the decline, but nonetheless, the hunting isn't what I used to be for sure. Example:: can anyone tell me for sure why MDWFP limited the doe killing on Sunflower this year?
Not saying it's a good or bad thing..I just want to know why did they did it and what do they expect to accomplish by it?

^ Because they say the deer numbers are down. There was a press release about it a few months ago.

Re: Out of state hunters
The doe killing(or restriction of) on Sunflower needed to happen. That place has been raped and pillaged by the coasties and coonasses. And that's not a dig, but honesty. They think if they drive all the way up here and pay license fees, then they are going to go home with something, legal or not. If properly managed and cared for and not run like the wild wild west, those blocks of woods up there have the potential to be world class.

Re: Out of state hunters
I'm so tired of getting the out-of-stater treatment I don't even hunt in Mississippi anymore. For some reason it seems like its gotten worse over the past few years. I spend my money in other states.

'77, you and I both feel a little bit "guilty by association." My dad doesn't like me driving my truck to his place because he doesn't want his neighbors seeing a vehicle with LA plates parked at his gate. Haha.

Re: Out of state hunters
I totally agree with wingman on that as well. Lots of people have private "access" to the forest and refuge and use it as their own extra land and once it gets back to their house unchecked, then its fair game to them.

Re: Out of state hunters
That's why I own property there. So, I can pay my part of the taxes, not be an "out of county coastie" and have my stuff stolen by the noble locals.
So many ducks, so little time....
