I'm wanting to learn more about Kansas Walk In Hunting. Years back I had a book of maps and I crossed over into KS and hunted Walk In property once but I had no clue of where I was going. And of course my dog got skunked so it wasn't a great day. That was a long time ago and it was SE KS but now I'm talking about North Central KS. I'm trying to put together a hunt for me and friend from alabama. anybody hae any knowledge of where to mixed bag bird hunt in KS?

![]() You can get a pdf copy of each hunting unit here: http://www.kdwpt.state.ks.us/news/KD...-Hunting-Atlas But I'd still recommend getting the book to take with you. It has everything included. Many times you'll be navigating a 4 mile section trying to find the field, and without the map in hand it's a PIA. When you get to the field, you'll see the WIHA signs up on the fences. They'll look like this: ![]() Be very careful about staying in the WIHA plot though. Many times the land next to WIHA will be leased land, and they'll shoot your ass if they catch you hunting it. Not literally, but sometimes literally. Did you have any idea about where you were wanting to go in North Central Kansas? I grew up in Jewell county, and still hunt there quite a bit. But I pheasant hunt all over northern Kansas. There's lots of good land in the area. I usually have better luck from North Central Kansas out west towards Colorado. North Eastern Kansas hasn't ever been as good. I'd recommend units 2,3,4,8,9. That's some damn good hunting around there. Let me know if you need any more info. |

Looks like hunting in the Midwest is just going to probably suck this year:

Yeah, I don't expect much for bird hunting this year. Seeing how badly the droughts of the last few years affected the birds, I have a feeling this year is going to be really awful. This year's drought was much much worse.

Well.... KDWP released their Upland bird forecast yesterday. It doesn't look good for pheasant this year.

I'm pretty nervous about the deer population around here. EHD is killing off a ton of deer. Farmers all around this area are finding dead deer in their dugouts.

Nebraska game and parks is saying that deer hunting will be good this year, but not a record breaker. Since I hunt public land, I have a hard time every year, so this year might be even worse on public land. I sure hope not...

The other benefit to this horrid drought is the irrigators have been pumping water like nobody's business. There are some bird populations there. There are birds out here, but nothing huge. Quote:

Although the turkey might be tougher hunting than in the past. Rambo and Chief have them a bit skittish. You may actually have to leave the porch. |
