no its confusing. actually at the beginning of this year the maps had whatever the other management lands say with use only with what is approved for what is in season.. The upper delta is like this.. if its squirrel season, you can only use 22 or shotguns with fine shot. You get the picture. we called them this year when they were printed and asked and they said no its same as always, that this was a misprint and the new maps would be printed with the right wording. go to the upper delta maps and then to the lower delta maps and compare how it is stated. i think it will make sense then.

So to recap:

If a game season is open - say turkey season - on a WMA, then you can use a centerfire rifle for hogs during that season on the WMA?

I've never understood it to be that way. If it is, then good, but that's a new one on me.

If you go hog hunting in the delta during turkey season, please remember that I've got black hair, kinda fat, and stink sometimes, but I AINT NO HOG. Y'all watch where you shootin. My father in law was killed turkey hunting years ago.

Yes for the lower delta. Not any others I know of. ONLY the lower delta from the ones I’ve hunted. Call five rivers to verify. That’s who confirmed it for me this year.

That's what I thought, because that's how it is on every other piece of public land. Legal weapons are only weapons that you would already be using for other species. I've looked everywhere for public land to hog hunt with a rifle, and it looks like I finally found somewhere. As a matter of fact, the boys and I are planning a trip down there next weekend.
