I spoke to a ranger last Saturday when I was hunting. He said if the government shut down that all the hunting areas are shut down too. That being said, the only area that they can really shut down is unit 2 due to the gate. Other then that go hunt!

in the last 10 yrs or so i've had my boat boarded 3 times while tied up on shore of hunt units ( i was hunting within earshot and got there fast) once by off duty LEO who thought it suspicious, once by border patrol, thought it suspicious, once by fed game warden cking duck hunters and happened on my boat. these people are still working, don't feed the bears. not worth my boat to me.Comment

Well I spoke to a coworker who spoke to a park ranger and here is how it was explained to me... All hunt areas are closed and signs have been posted... If found hunting, minimal is a ticket and loss of permit... If found to have killed an animal it would be considered poaching.... As I mentioned before all ramps to the lake are closed of so if you had plans of coming in to hunt and fish you might want to reconsider... I will try to keep a close eye on things and post any changes... By the way that same co-worker killed a big ram and two ewe mouflon in area 4... Will try to get pics...Comment

This is killing me... Have had a hunt planned for this coming weekend with my buddy from Houston for awhile. The government needs to hurry up and get their **** together. *fingers crossed*Comment

I had a hunt scheduled for this week also. I had some buds coming from Killeen and from the Valley. They are ******. Oh well, according to NPS Rangers, all areas are closed till further notice. I hope this gets resolved soon. Arrows need to be flying down range.Originally posted by rbanks View PostComment

Anyone who is caught on Amistad NRA is going to be ticketed. They have already given a bunch of tickets out to boaters and to hunters alike and there will be more if folks keep pushing the limits...this info is from a Sheriff's Deputy here in Del Rio. And, they are still patrolling the gates and driving the roads to find trespassers. This sucks but don't go out there unless you can afford it. Cheers!
