Woodson State Fishing Lake
2021 Woodson Wildlife Area Dove Management Fields - Located 9 miles West of Yates Center Kansas, in Woodson County.
Overview- 2021 there was approx. 24 acres of Sunflowers planted and 4 acres of Milo/Millet.
Outlook- Sunflowers did fair, with average head size and average yields. Most fields had abundant annual weed production as well, such as Fox Tail Millet and Ragweed. I expect hunters to have normal or average hunting success this 2021 season.
Special Regulations in Effect-
The entire Dove Management fields are highly enforced, Non-Toxic Shot ONLY. The remainder of the WA is open to lead shot for Dove Hunting.
