re: Duck, Teal, Dove hunting around BR

The sherburne south farm area has lottery hunts that are drawn at 4:30AM several times a week. Just gotta show up to throw your name in the hat. That's almost the only public place you can get to within 45 mins of BR. It's pretty hit or miss, but hell sometimes people kill a limit there. More the exception than the rule though.

If you dont get drawn for the lottery hunt, you can drive to the main body of sherburne off of the whiskey bay exit and there are some places you can walk in, but there are a lot of people that hunt there and the pressure is pretty bad from what I hear. Still, if you're desperate for somewhere close it's the only other place within 45 mins of BR. If you want to drive a little farther (1.5 hrs) there are several more WMAs/NWRs to the east that you can pirogue in on.
