    Oh, I thought I was being serious. Seems to work well for others.

    Some corps areas allow corn. Whitney is one example. I don't see the harm in hand corning. It can make for more ethical shots, allows a hunter to size up a deer and make a better decision on something like antler restrictions before taking a shot, etc. I guess not allowing it works for some corps areas that don't want a high animal harvest rate.

          I walked for days at various spots on Lewisville and Lavon last year, didn't see a hog one. Plenty of signs and some deer, but no hog. I've got all three permits this year and was even drawn for the deer permit on GV. Have a kayak this year, so I've heard that provides great access to some less busy areas...

          I am also happy to take on a hunting partner for a trip or two. I'm new to bow hunting, but I'm not dumb or careless or new to hunting in general, and I prefer you be the same if you care to go out together...

          Hit me up...

              I don't want to put this out on the public interwebs. Someone who is familiar with ALL parts of Lake Lewisville, can you please PM me? I have a question, specifically hunting north of 380, NOT in the Denton part..

                    Sarcastic? Me?? Never.

                    You're going about it the right way. Never mind me, I'm just beating the dead horse from the other public hunting threads.

                      Where do y'all see that you can't use corn? I only see rules that you can't bait for migratory bird.

                        Page 6 of the USACE Fort Worth District Public Hunting Guide

                        18. Is baiting allowed on Corps of Engineers hunting lands?
                        A hunter may not hunt migratory birds with the aid of bait or on or over any baited area. Contact the site manager of a specific lake for information on using corn to bait deer or other game animals. Note: Hunters are responsible for knowing whether an area is baited or not.

                        Call the Lewisville office and ask. My bet is they will tell you that you cannot bait corn for hogs on Lewisville. Why they just won't publish it is beyond me. It leaves a grey area, and they almost seem to like it that way.

                          That's what I had read. I have been trying to call but they just transfer me to somebody who doesn't answer their phone or return messages.

                              I stopped by the C.O.D. land north of 380 today on my lunch break and talked to a guy dove hunting. He had his MOJO and decs out but said he had been there since sun up and hadn't seen a single dove....

                                I haven't heard much good anywhere today for doves, I have been watching a lot and I just haven't seen them as much this year.
