Inshore duck

Was thinking today, if Covid has a second wave this fall. The coastal counties may close their borders to “outsiders”. It would allow Hyde to keep us outsiders completely out of the county. Wonder how that would play out?

- Thread starter Inshore duck

I think Dare to Hyde and the rest of that crowd down there ain't gonna let that happen. Too much $$$.

Yeah, I pretty much agree that the folks with DTH won’t allow that to happen. Hunting has got to be the biggest revenue producer for mainland Hyde, after all it’s now known as the most popular place in the US to kill a trophy black bear. BIG bucks are spent on this.

They will change the law so you have to have a "guest permit" sponsored by a land owner to get in the county.

As a taxpayer I guess I own land on the federal refuges. Anyone that needs a permission slip hit me up!

I bet you would have to be a resident landowner. They required me to get apermit to enter the county as a non resident landowner.

I just got my permit to enter Atlantic Beach as a non-resident property owner. The town and my HOA are still sending nasty "we don't want you here" messages...

DTH might have a tough time convincing waterfowl hunters to pony up thousands for ducks after the season they had last year. Many of the clubs will be in the same boat.

I only duck hunt at our place in Arkansas and things are going to change there as well. Already limiting the number of days that OOS'ers can hunt on refuges next it will the total # in the season.
