Title: Determining huntable land
Post by: adamR on November 16, 2019, 06:01:11 PM: Can someone point me in a direction to determine whether or not local regulations allow for hunting on public land? For instance, between Yakima and Naches there are several chunks of land labeled as Dept of Fish and Wildlife, Yakima County Public Services, state of Washington, Yakima County, City of Yakima, and Yakima County flood control services. Ultimately I guess I'm trying to figure out what city and county rules are in place for Yakima and Naches regarding hunting within city limits.
I'm having another knee surgery on Friday and my end of the year hunting isn't going to happen. It would be nice to have some close locations for easy jump hunting for ducks.
