Lake Henshaw

[BrendonW]

Hello everyone.

Just joined the forum and I've already learned a lot. I am also a servicemember from out of state and had a few questions about Lake Henshaw. I've looked through the website and regs and I can't find any dates or anything specific to the area. Could someone give me a run down on standard business over there?

Oh boy, what kind of changes? More MCC and less public? Higher costs? More restrictions?

So I called and this is what I was told.

Generally they open the first Wednesday of December. However this year they are waiting until they start seeing the waterfowl come in. So they aren't giving out a specific date. Also, boat rentals are $50 and to hunt is $25. Seems a little ridiculous to me but hey, what can you do? As far as set up, she did say that coming out the day prior and setting out deeks and blinds is required.


Speaking of which I'm trying to get my hands on a pop up if anyone is trying to part with one. I'll look in the classifieds.

You will have better luck searching the term "layout" not pop up.
