Welcome Scott..

I can't give my spots away friends...but i'll I'll say this...I'll probably be somewhere on Powder Grade the first day..

Please don't take a chance and carry a pistol.Even if you have a concealed weapons permit it is illegal to carry one during archery or in a WMA area apart from firearm season. I was searched last year during archery. I was going to get a concealed weapons permit for scouting till I read page 2 of the brochure ..which specifically says no one can carry a pistol on a WMA or National Park when the firearm season is not in session. So don't get busted.

Hey Chuck7 where did you read this--my brochures on mgt.areas up here says you can carry with a concealed permit!!Also looked at Green swamp said the same thing!!!Just Curious we may not be on the same page!![&:]

2 years ago I did all th enecessary stuff to get my concealed...then i saw page 2 of the concealed rules guide..It mentioned the National Forest right in there.I called Tallahassee just to make sure.They said I was correct..you can not carry a concealed weapon on a WMA or Nationa; forest except during firearm..I still called Florida fish and game ot make sure..they said you are correct...last year as I was drivin gout of the Green Swamp..they checked all vehicles for firearms.Since that was the case I chucked my concealed weapons application because in Florida you can carry one loaded in your car anyhow..and ,loaded BUT not on a WMA
C7

To verify call Florida fish and game..;)

Sure have Reb..:)


Ok REb..here is the rely to the firearm question.

1. Here is a cut section from a WMA brochure..



2. A couple of years ago I decided ot get a concealed weapons permit..not for bodily protection ..simply for scouting. On the application brochure which is pretty big I noticed on page 2 it mentined briefly about not aloud on National Forest....I called Tallahassee and ask about scouting in WMAs ..and she said it's not aloud..

I thought maybe she didn't understand so I called Fish and Game on Drainfield Road..I got the same answer..Then I ask the fellows at the gate at the Green Swamp..same answer .

There werea few nice bucks checked in at the GS last year..the biggest at 169 pounds.
