| I agree with you that the state should tell you where they stock.
Unfortunately, I don't hunt that area. Hopefully, others here can
give you specific locations.
If you have vague clues from any sources so far, take a drive around
the area and look for likely locations. Often you will see orange
signs posted by the fish and game. They usually say no vehicle
access, but I've only seen them around pheasant stocking areas.
Good luck,
Mark

1199.3 | Try calling F&G in Concord | VSSTEG::TOWLE | Corky | Mon Sep 28 1992 12:23 | 2 |
| I thought the F&G office in Concord had a list of stocked areas you could
request?
|
1199.4 | The lists are vague as well !! | REGENT::BENDEL | | Mon Sep 28 1992 12:39 | 11 |
| I think F&G has a list of the towns stocked, not actual locations. I
just heard that last weekend at a local Gun Shop. he said that usually
Concord mails them a bunch to distribute, but this year they haven't.
Fortunately there are hunters in this conference that don't try to
keep local knowledge a secret, and I'll be checking out a couple spots
when I have some time. I also will be willing to share any info that I
come across with other noters.
thanks for the help

1199.5 | it's a secret! | ELWD1::GATH | | Mon Sep 28 1992 13:48 | 9 |

Neadeau's Farm.

| Bear, are you sure of that? Last week I over heard a conversation in
a sporting goods shop that was going to be closed this year. I didn't
pay too much attention since I don't hunt there, but I do recognize
the name.
I know this is a long shot, but while we are on the subject, does
anyone know where they stock in Moultonborough? The state lists
2 sites there, but I haven't been able to find them.
Thanks,
Mark

Over the weekend I received the the N.H. Highlights put out by the
F&G Dept. and they had an article on Pheasants in it. The article
stated that 10,000 birds would be stocked in 4 sessions and that
they also had a listing of which towns received the stocking. So
it should be available.

1199.8 | Pls forgive me, I'm just having a little fun | ELWD1::GATH | | Mon Sep 28 1992 19:09 | 28 |
| If you say they are not going to stock there anymore
well what can I say. I don't have privy to such information.
and besides I am sure that everyone understood that when it was
a stocking site it was no real secret.
For the most part they stock public land and a few private places
that is open to hunting.
Usuall the information isn't that hard to acuire. Local stores
and even some CO's will share the information. Some won't for reasons
only they know.
The information gets around some how. It was a place I heard of.
Guy lives over that way. He should know everywhere.
start going to some local clubs and befriend some of the
locals then just mention you been going out but don't know where
to go....
Usually someone will feed you some information...
Oh by the way Hopkinton is good info I have hunted there.. Birds
everywhere. It seemed we would jump them in every little cover.
I Thought it was a secret though...shhh..

| No, Bear it looks like you are correct. It seems what I overheard
was some B/S.
I agree that the stocking areas should be no big secret. I don't
understand why the state refuses to give out that info. It makes
no sense to me. It's just the opposite in Mass. You can take topo
maps into the field office and they will mark all the local covers
in it that they stock. Tell you where it's OK to park, etc.

1199.10 | Hudson still stocked, dog's first bird ! | REGENT::BENDEL | | Wed Oct 07 1992 11:31 | 12 |
| They are still stocking the Hudson area mentioned, and as a matter of
fact they put some birds out Tuesday morning. Not a lot, but some. My
dog got her first exposure to pheasants, needless to say she loved it,
and even though she's basically an untrained one year old, she did
point and hold one perfectly for me. Once they flushed, well that was
another story, but one thing at a time. We ended up with one, but if
I shot better I should have had my limit of two, I shot at three birds.
(now for the excuse, I hadn't even fired my gun in about four years,
and that coupled with my excitement didn't help my shooting :-) :-)
