Small game hunting - suggestion on public land in Ontario?

smartassbrat said:
I live in West Grey, County and can't find any private land.
Most have ppl hunting on it or not allowed at all.
Still looking for some, my wife went and got everything to hunt as well and it may be a waste of time and money.

I know there are some county forest tracts in Grey county. I think you have to pay some fee and then you will be able to hunt (not between March and September though). These tracts are just so small I bet they are overcrowded with hunters.
I was hunting few years back on private land just West of Conn on Hwy 89 (just north of highway 89) and ventured off to a forest owned by local Mennonites. I slowly and quietly walked through the forest and then I was attacked by some vicious Italian guy with a massive Beretta shotty, longer than the guy himself. He was screaming at me for wandering around and scaring off all the deer, while waving his big shotty in the air. I told him politely to f**k off as the forest doesn't belong to him. Not a nice experience, pretty much ruined my day. Gotta be careful where you step. This sucks. It seems anywhere north of Parry Sound is a reasonable spot for hunting without being hassled by angry hunters who think the whole are belongs to them.

Well, not to generalize, of course, but I personally know a few Italian pals of mine for whom hunting is not a hobby, it is a "must kill deer" event and they are livid if they go home empty handed. I am Polish by the way and some of the Polish guys I heard of are even worse. Some go hunting still drunk and many times wandering deep into woods to realize they put the wrong ammo for the wrong gun in their pockets. Then the cursing begins. We all have our vices and I don't really feel that any one is really insulting any one else above.
