Hunting

| The
best way to hunt on the island is to use one of
our local guides. The land around here is either
privately owned or managed by the Refuge so it's
best to hire some local knowledge to make your
trip a successful one. Some reputable guides are
listed here. Visit their pages. One or more of
them has a package to suit your needs. |

| Hunting Dog Joke
There was a duck hunter from New Jersey who traveled to
the island every winter to hunt. He liked it fine
enough but couldn't get the locals to accept him as a
hunter of their caliber. Then he found a retriever
that could walk on water. This was the ticket.
He would finally impress these guys.
He brought the dog down and went hunting. After a
few hours they were able to shoot some ducks. Here
was the big moment. He sent the dog out and it
trotted across the water with no problems, picked up the
ducks and returned over and over again without getting
wet.
The Jersey hunter looked at his hosts after the
demonstration was over with a big smile on his face.
"Well? How about that?"
The Island hunters shook their heads in pity.
When the Jersey hunter ask what the problem was one
finally spoke up. "You poor guy. That dog
can't swim. Can he?" |

Fishing
|
|
|
The guides can help you with a great
fishing trip or you can do it yourself. You will
need some fishing license. These can be purchased
at the Knotts Island Market. You can get a
license for just our county, statewide, or you
can get a license for visitors. The link below
will take you to a site that can better explain
the options and prices. Fishing on the island is
easier to do on your own because the waters are
easily accessible. The
causeway offers some pretty good action and, in
the right seasons, the canals and ponds on the
refuge will provide good angling.
