Hello, I am looking to plan a trip to Kansas within the next month. I was looking for any input I could get from you all. Places to go, suggestions, or any inf. at all would help. I am coming from SouthCentral Kentucky. Haven't even found an area yet. It will probably be a 4 day trip.
Regards,
Jonathan Sims

Jonathan, Coming from Ky. your best bet would be Eastern Kansas. The southeast area around Pittsburg is good with plenty of public land. The northeast is also good with a lot of walk in hunting area. Private owned land is hard to get on after bird season opens. It opens November 4. Deer season is November 29 - December 10. Don't come during deer season. Give me a call if you like. (913)727-2690.

I was seriously considering a Kansas rabbit hunting trip this fall until I was told that Kansas has a "snare season" from mid Nov.-Feb. 28. That surprised me as all the states I've previously hunted in snares were outlawed.I just don't want to risk finding one of my beagles in one so will plan on another state for that reason.

We experience the same thing occasionally on public ground here
in North West Missouri. My dogs have gotten into the small traps as well as snares
but I stay close as possible to my hounds so they have yet to be
seriously injured.

I carry a pair of side cutters with me. The snares need adjusting from time to time, if you know what I mean. They are bad news for dogs, because they place them where there are holes in the fence. The dogs naturally go through the holes. I've had one dog get caught and I got to her just in time. The dog's natural reaction is to pull, which makes them tighter. However, there are very few fences on most state land. So that is the safest way to go.

Mike, no need to be politically correct, those aren't "side cutters", those are dikes or dykes (however you spell it).
