Do you support ONLY Registered Wild turkey hunters on F and W areas between 4:30 am and 1:00 pm?

Wild turkey hunting on Fish and Wildlife areas
9. Allow only registered turkey hunters and those who are fishing between 4:30 am and 1:00 pm in the field on property managed by the Division of Fish and Wildlife during the spring wild turkey season.
Background: Throughout most of Indiana, spring turkey season often coincides with the peak morel hunting season. Morel hunting on a fish and wildlife managed property is a secondary use that, during turkey season , conflicts with the primary use (turkey hunting). Morel hunters often disturb hunters and turkeys while in the field. Moreover, there is a certain amount of risk involved with having morel hunters (and other secondary users) in the field during the spring turkey season.
