Things for Hunters to think about:
Be safe and remember the basics during Hunting Seasons. Park on the side of the road that you will be hunting on in case rescuers need to search for you.
Preserve our Croatan National Forest by cleaning up after yourself and reporting illegal activity to the Ranger's Station.
If you are a deer hunter and you recently moved here, a lot of hunt clubs and individuals hunt with dogs. Mostly on the weekends, so if you are a lonesome deer hunter, it may be best to hunt during the week.
New to the area? Make sure you have a topographical map and a GPS or compass because it's easy to get turned around in the Croatan.
Sportsman's Toy Store sells unique and standard hunting supplies. They're also a great source of information on field and stream opportunities in the area!
Be on the look out for poisonous snakes, there's a wide variety in the Croatan. Species include: cottonmouth water moccasin, canebrake rattlesnake, eastern diamondback rattlesnake, pygmy rattlesnake, and the copperhead. If you're in the swamps, you may run across an alligator.
