That's the website you guy's will want to check before you come down. I don't think they're closing anything. I have a few contacts I'm emailing and see what they say. Bubba

Thanks Chief.  I'm looking at heading that way early next week.  Kind of concerned they may shut things down after I make the 16 hour drive.  I think Illinois did.
I'm researching options closer to me just in case.  I'll be watching this with interest for any news you may hear.  Thanks for keeping us updated!

There is another thread discussing the same topic.  FL made some big changes within the last 12 hours or so.  WMAs still open but their campgrounds within them not.  Things seem to change by the minute.

Sleep in your car in line at the gate or find a wma that has no gate. All this stuff going on sucks but i think there will be more people hunting than normal

Never seen it this hot in March. Temps in the high 80's - 90's ... been that way for 2 weeks.. will be that way for another 2 weeks they say.  Low's in the morning only in the 60's. Sucks to hunt in the afternoon right now... and that's always the best time in my woods
