Introduction
Hey guys. I have been looking at the site for sometime now but just now thought I would join. I grew up in Northern Iowa, but came down to Iowa City for college. I have been hunting deer, turkey, waterfowl, and pheasants (before they became extinct in Iowa) for as long as I can remember and I absolutely am obsessed with it!! Last season, my buddies and I hunted the Cedar River and some small farm ponds and did ok. I am already looking forward to next season and can't believe its so far away. I am thinking about getting/making a boat blind and was curious if there are enough bodies of water around the Iowa City area to hunt with a boat to make a purchase worth it? What does everybody think? I am not looking for everybody to give up their honey holes, just curious where a few spots are with enough water to access with a boat. Looking forward to talking with you guys on here!!

Re: Introduction
Welcome to the site. Wish I could help but on the wrong side of the state. Good luck.

Welcome aboard. Yes there is enough water in a normal year, there are quite a few in the IC that will let you tag along . As far as a picture go to the control panel and go to edit avatar.

Re: Introduction
Welcome aboard Hawkeye.
This link will take you to the Iowa DNR Interactive Map. It will show all public lands. http://programs.iowadnr.gov/ims/webs...sic/viewer.htm I've never hunted it but I hear Hawkeye near Iowa City can be good hunting and Cone Marsh is just south of there. Be prepared for an overcrowded experience at Cone though. Good luck! |

Welcome to the site. I did sort of the opposite of you. Grew up in the Ia. City area and now in N.central Ia.
There are a lot of boat areas down there. Some real skinny water like Weise Slough and others like the Coralville Reservoir. |
