[QUOTE=Destry L. Hoffard;114761]The problem with Virginia and New Jersey is that you have to shoot non-toxic shot at them. I'm assuming that lead is still legal in Georgia if you were using a .410
DLH[/QUOTE Unless there is a recent change I'm not aware of, lead shot is legal in Georgia for rail and snipe in any gauge up through ten. The reason I was given is rail and snipe are of the group "rallidae" not "anatidae" and are therefore not considered "waterfowl" instead are considered "shorebirds" and therefore are not covered under the Federal ban.

Yeah, they aren't covered in the federal ban, when they're non-toxic only it's a state issue.

In MA regardless of the species hunted, any wetland or marsh, tidal or not, east of US Rte 1 is non-tox only. This excludes slugs for deer and the like.

WOW!!! I just shot Sora Rails on Merrymeeting bay yesterday for the first time . Stopped at ten [limit is twenty]. Hired a young man to pole me around and it was great fun. Can't wait till next year to do it again. Season ends oct. 8 in Maine. but with getting ready for grouse[northern Maine in a tent for a month] I have no more time.If anyone in this area wants to try it .
www.reddogbirdfarm.com Caseyis the guide. He only charged me $70.00 for about four hours of high tide. I could have easily shot my limit but since I've never eaten them before stopped at ten. Herb |

Good to know there's another pusher working out there somewhere. They're a rare bird in themselves.....
