WV's Low Harvest Numbers

[wvmntnhick]

Stonewall is a beautiful lake. They say the hunting isn't bad there.  I need to check it out.

You won't be sorry so long as you like the initial hike. I've killed several birds there and many of them were nice. Never shot a Jake there. Too many birds to choose from to be smoking Jake's.

There were plenty of birds where I was but season came in 3 weeks too late as usual.

It hit great out here but then I got to hunt a place where no one has turkey hunted in years. Unpressured birds are easy and will come in a hurry when the hens are done.

Aw man what you talking about... Public land turkey hunting is no harder than a private property bird with next to no pressure... I'll say it "Turkey's are turkeys" no matter were you hunt them... LOL!!!  Gotta love them green field hunters

I have killed a few in Hancock county.  Haven't been in several years.  Always got on birds.  Never understood the 1 PM shutoff or the legal use of rifles.

I haven't shot a jake yet. 
I have some buddy's that beach their bass boats and go up the hill hunting.  Not sure I would do that.

The 1pm cutoff is according to the DNR to keep hunters from killing hens going to the nest.  That's what they say.

Rifles?  I would say that that comes from the old timers.  I'm sure in the old days they used rifles and never changed the law.  I would never use one and am not really worried about someone else using one where I hunt.  It's very thick and very steep.  A rifle would not be of much help where I hunt.  I also make my own calls.  I want to call him into shotgun range.
