Indiana State Lands Closed To Hounds

I read on the UKC board something about Indiana closing down some state lands to dog hunters. Anyone know anything about it? I don't live there but do make the trip down to hunt yearly.

The only thing I know of is having certain areas closed during off season. I'm in northeast Indiana and hunt pigeon river mostly; it is closed to dog running except for one area during off season. They open all the property during hunting season.

DNR prolerties have always been closed to dog running in the off season. Some managed properties have had designated areas to run dogs in the off season. this is nothing new.

Yes, more properties are closing during the off season. I have always run at Chinook year round, but it has been closed now for 2 years. And there is no designated running area.
