Kentucky announces waterfowl hunting blind drawing dates

The Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife Resources has announced the schedule for public drawings to select season-long waterfowl hunting blind sites at four wildlife management areas (WMAs) this fall.

The available locations include Doug Travis, Lake Barkley, Green River Lake, and Barren River Lake WMAs. These drawings are conducted in advance to allow hunters sufficient time for preparation and blind construction.

The drawing schedule is as follows:

• Doug Travis WMA (Carlisle and Hickman counties): August 29 at 10 a.m. CT. • Lake Barkley WMA (Trigg and Lyon counties): September 21 at 8 a.m. CT. • Green River Lake WMA (Taylor and Adair counties): September 26 at 10 a.m. ET. • Barren River Lake WMA (Allen and Barren counties): October 3 at 9 a.m. CT.

Participants must be at least 18 years old and hold a valid Kentucky hunting license to enter the drawings.
