    Public land available?

    Get an Iowa sportsman atlas and find Storm Lake. Draw a 50 mile circle around in and try any of the public areas and especially those with water features and you should do well. Good Luck

    We are willing to let you have half the rain drowning the East Coast right now. Iowa was terrible last year, it took us a day or two to realize how dry and modify our hunting plans to include creeks and rivers nearby as there were no birds anywhere else. Hope you get some relief soon
