woodsman2230 Posted June 28, 2007 Report Share Posted June 28, 2007 Does anyone know of any good places to hunt in eastern ohio for deer and turkeys? Preferrably near andover or in that area. But any WMA in the eastern part of ohio would be best. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tominator Posted June 28, 2007 Report Share Posted June 28, 2007 http://www.dnr.state.oh.us/wildlife/Hunting/wildlifeareas/wildare.htm Maps to all the wildlife areas in Ohio. The Wayne National Forest is also down in that area. Good luck, but there really aren't any big deer in Ohio, don't know why anyone would want to come here.

Master_Chief Posted June 28, 2007 Report Share Posted June 28, 2007 Wayne National Forest is a great area. Southern Monroe County and Washington County right along the river harvests some great deer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony Posted June 30, 2007 Report Share Posted June 30, 2007 easy there woodsman. hes just having a little fun with ya. its like when guys ask about Iowa deer and we say theres only a couple of 120s running around, no big bucks at all.. just all in fun. dont know if your interested, but near cambridge Ohio theres a huge public hunting area called Salt Fork lake and public hunting. its in Guernsey county. it might be a little to far for ya though. i hunted there many many years and there are some pretty nice size bucks around that area.

ODH Posted July 4, 2007 Report Share Posted July 4, 2007 i was just cruising through that area Monday on my way back from the hnting cabin in Southern PA. Really good area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tominator Posted July 5, 2007 Report Share Posted July 5, 2007 I just got back from Salt Fork. Ton of deer up there. My kids, nieces and nephews where hand feeding the deer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ohiobucks Posted July 5, 2007 Report Share Posted July 5, 2007 Salt Fork is a nice place. They have an early season muzzleloader hunt there though from Oct 22 to Oct 27. I went to that 7-8 years ago and it was wall to wall orange. Very crowded. I think the state is regulating the hunters #'s for that hunt now.....

Straight Shooter Posted July 5, 2007 Report Share Posted July 5, 2007 Yeah, most of these guys are right there are no big deer in Ohio. If I was you I'd try the other states that were mentioned, beside Wayne National forest is covered up in coyotes and 4 wheelers running rampent! LOL Good luck on finding an area to hunt.
