Hi, Does anyone hunting this area in Southern Indiana or know anything about the area? I know one of the Biologists on staff there, but know very little else about the Refuge, in regards to Hunting or Fishing. I do know it is underfunded, and it's sort of at a "stand still" mode.

You need to ask Raporter, he lives around there.

You need to ask Raporter, he lives around there. It isn't close to the lake Kevin. It is over by Oakland City. I do fish over there but know nothing about where to hunt. Their office is at Oakland City and you can get maps and maybe some info about where to hunt. David is right on it being underfunded as there is lots of land waiting to be bought. Now don't get mad at Our Man Mitch as this is federal.

What would you like to know about it. Where you can deer hunt, or where would be a good place to hunt. I hunt all around there and may be able to help you out. The one thing I can tell you for sure is, during bow season, you do not see much traffic, but come gun season, they will either steal your tree stand, or set up within 50 yds. of your stand. Let me if I can help.

A good place to hunt deer or squirrel. I would like to get a map of the area but I cant get to the office during the week and its not open on the weekends. I drove around Sunday morning and i think we found some good areas. If I'm in town next weekend then we are going to get in the woods a scout around a little. Will probably wait till next year to really hunt it hard. I use to hunt this area before it was the refuge area. Cant get back to where i want to go to now. the bridge is out and i really don't want to go down the railroad tracks. Want to scout it a bit before we hunt it. Went squirrel hunt at my uncles Sunday morning and saw a nice buck and 4 does. will be putting trail camera out real soon to see whats in the woods to hunt.

Get the gps cor. of the area and go to MyTopo.com. Key it in and wala. They even have new hybrid maps which are very nice. They may even be able to bring it up based on the name alone. Sometimes though they are not showing you what your asking for, so you must always check.
