Texas Turkey Hunting on WMA's
« on: December 24, 2011, 11:03:00 PM »
I'm looking to do a turkey hunt this coming spring. Been looking in the Texas park and wildlife Public Hunting Lands map booklet and saw a few WMA's in East Texas that has turkeys.

My question for all You Texan Turkey hunters, Has anyone hunted them for turkey and got one? Also if You know any guides that don't charge a arm and leg for a hunt would also be nice..

The only one I know of is out of business now. If anyone has land and wouldn't mind a guest (ME) to come hunt, Please let Me know...

Sal, I just got back from hiking in Davy Crockett National Forest. Saw some deer, tons of hog sign, and some turkey sign. Take a drive and check it out for yourself.

Pat, You should have let Me know that You would have been there. I could have meet You up there..

That is one of the areas I'm looking in to. Might even have to look in to going up to OK and try some piggies, You know of any good spots? Would be nice to get a couple of Jersey Boy trans-plants doing some hunt away from the garden State..

Check the regulation booklet because some counties that contain parts of the Davy Crockett National Forest will not have a Spring turkey season in 2012.

They are here but the population is not very high.  After the reintroduction there numbers are climbing but fire ants and hogs are making it slow.

Thanx ChrisM, I also plan on trying to take some hogs too. Need to help out the other game by taking some hogs.

I have a friend that really wants me to take some hogs so He(His family can get some meat). I have lots or room freeze room and need lots of them there piggies.

One place I found (Pay Hunt) that I'm going to do a Thunder Chicken and Hog hunt, Was Told I can take as many hogs as I can shoot.. I'm going to take as many as I can to help others out with some Great Food.. That hunt is set for April and is going to be My Birthday Gift... To Me, For Me From Me..

if i was you i would be looking around zavalla in the angelina nf. go down towards boykin springs and see if you cant find some. also the moore plantation in th sabine nf. i cant remember and dont have a book in front of me of what counties got pulled this year though. i see plenty while working the woods but dont have time with 3d, bowfishing tourneys, and chasing rio's out west.
