PUBLIC KNOXVILLE TVA

Now everyone knows at least. 60 acres is about to be overrun. You have to say these things in a pm. Or else you'll find out quickly you should have. I'm not gonna go there but many people will. Just a heads up for next time.

If your an avid public land hunter you already know about these spots. It's very easy to find out information on where you can hunt public land via onx or just a quick google search. I feel like if you're to lazy to do a 5 minute google to look up this easily accessible info, I highly doubt you're gonna put the time in to go out scout and hunt it because you saw a thread on it. With all the info out there now via apps, websites, and social media there's no secret spots anymore. Same goes for fishing with all the new technology advancements in electronics. It sucks but it's what we have to deal with now.
 
I am just new to hunting this area. I have always hunted in Hartford Del Rio area. Just looking for some tips and double checking myself on my research online.

I've seen so much pointing out of specific public land access on here this year. I don't get it. If someone really wants to hunt and is serious about it, let them do the research and find the access. It's very easy to do anymore.

Exactly. Boots on the ground never hurt anybody.
 
All I was wanting to know if it was legal to hunt there because on the TVA map it says error when you click on it. I reached out to TWRA question email and never got a response. So, I figured I would ask if any one on here has ever hunted there... didn't know it was an issue sorry.

It isn't a question for TWRA. It is a TVA issue.
 
Like I said Sorry Just looking for help and thought I could get it here.
 
Honestly, if anyone thinks this was a super secret area they are kidding themselves (my guess is most of the posts are tongue and check). When I first moved here I checked out every "super secret" spot I could find. 80% of the time on weekends at least one other hunter in the area 100% of the time I always found signs of other people hunting the area. This includes boat-only access and many out-of-the-way locations. The only time I see limited/no activity is about 3 miles back on some unnamed mountain that you would have to pack your animal out of. Hunt when you can on what you can and be respectful of others.

Generally speaking I rarely encounter others during bow season. Early Nov to mid December is a different story on public. Who knows what may happen. Late season people usually are over the temps and once the peak of the first big rut happens sightings decrease and people call it a year.
