guys - help me out - the state says that they will not be stocking state owned pheasant areas this week because of gun season Wednesday - they have been doing this now for a while -

are they still stocking non-owned lands then ?
ie: permit required areas, mdc land ????

thanks for the help

I spoke to a state stocker the other day. He said they are not stocking at all this week. The land I was at is a WMA and doesn't allow shotgun deer hunting so I'm assuming that means they aren't stocking anywhere.

Thanks Dave - that is kind of ridiculous it seems. If there is no deer hunting allowed there and the book says state - owned lands only - not rod an gun club or mdc lands - then you would think they should still be stocking

Does that mean they will be doubling up in coming weeks or extending the stocking season?

No, the birds are scheduled to be stocked through the Wednesday before Thanksgiving. The non-stocking week was in the original schedule.
