dpv,
well, Ive hunted MD for over 15 years, and I can tell you, the hardest part about hunting MD is....well finding a place to hunt! I hunt Northern Carroll Co, which is about 45 miles North of Balt, and its so hard to find good spots. If you dont "know" someone, or pay out the a$$ you dont hunt. There is no knocking on doors and farmers saying "sure come on in" most places have way more hunters then should be per acre. I am lucky enough to have 2 good spots but, they are local friends that my father knew back in the early 80's. If you want to hunt the eastern shore, you will pay!! A friend of mine leases in Kent Co and the farmers down there know what they are sitting on, he and 7 friends lease 200 acres for $8000!!!! per season, then when goose season comes in they have to pay $25/ day just to do that!! Public hunting areas are available, but well its public hunting, and I dont have to explain all that mess to you. hope I helped, maybe someone else has a different opinion.
