I am trying to find somewhere worthwhile to hunt saturday in the east zone. Does it hold any birds besides woodies?

the old nature preserve used to hold a few. It is now a part of the WMA but also probably full of hunters.

I made a few hunts there during the first split... there wasn't much going on. I saw a few wood ducks and only had one passing shot. I talked to a few regulars out there that said the river is pretty low, which obviously affects all of the bayous and sloughs. Not sure where the birds are, but they aren't in Pearl River WMA.

You can but Im not telling you my spot cause it gets to crowded with two or three people in the area, but I here the lower half by the lake is nice and spread out. Got a buddy that hunts down in there and says he does pretty good.

Anyone know how good the fishing is there? Is the current too strong for a yak?

I'm limiting myself to hunting wood ducks when it comes to WMAs. I'm tired of fighting the crowds, and wood ducks usually can be found where people aren't willing to go. I usually put my pirogue in a ditch off highways and paddle deep into the swamps - I'd take shooting 1 or 2 woodies over big crowds every time.
