You can hunt the modern season, but must use a muzzy, shotgun, bow, or even a crossbow I think. Check the regs. You may already know this, but just making sure I help keep a member out of the pokey just in case! As far as where, find a farmer and ask is your best bet. Offer to work for the priviledge of hunting there.

And yes, Island County is firearm restricted.
