I'll be going to TX. again this spring with the family have hunted in eldorado both yrs. plan on going back my question is we will be staying with family in san antonio the rest of the time i can take 2 birds at the place i've been hunting but my license is good for 4 any info on public land say 1 to 1 1/2 hrs from san antonio would be great and how easy is it to access public land in TX. i've been doing research on the net any input would be most welcome

HOSS What dates are you going to be there. I will be in San Antonio on the 10-17th only hunting for the first for days , I'm also looking to team up with someone for a few....BT

You may look into military post. I know up here on ft hood civilians pay $100 post registration and they can hunt right here on federal land. I think there is some air force bases in San Antonio...might be able to hunt there, may be cheaper also. Public land is scarce in TX. Keep in mind you must have a hunters safety card to hunt on a federal installiation...doesnt matter what age you are. Just a thought...hope it helps.

>>>> There is no public land in Texas that I know of where you can hunt Rios(except quota hunts). However,if you are interested in traveling to the Piney Woods in east TX,there is plenty of public land to be had. Check out www.chron.com which is the homepage for the Houston Chronicle. You can go to their classifides and click on Recreation/hunting leases. You should be able to find some ranches in the S.A. area advertising "Day Hunts"... Good luck.

Thanks guys I'll check this out BOSSTOM you've got mail.
and I do have a hunter saftey card so that opens that area up
