The Wyoming Game and Fish Department has selected walk-in areas in Goshen, Laramie, and Platte Counties that will be stocked with pheasants this fall. Those areas are Goshen County 19, 29, and 63; Laramie County 21 and 34; and Platte County 20, 23, 24, and 51. Weather permitting, the walk-in areas will receive two releases per week - but only through November this year, due to fewer birds available for release. Hunters are alerted that this season hen pheasants, in addition to roosters, will be stocked and can be taken on walk-in areas in Laramie and Platte counties. Only roosters are legal game in Goshen County.
Rooster pheasants will also be stocked through Nov. 26th at the Table Mountain Habitat Area south of Huntley. There will be no pheasant releases this season at Bump-Sullivan Reservoir, due to the managed goose hunt resuming for the second year. Hunters are cautioned if they follow the stocking truck, the driver will likely return to the Downar Bird Farm and not release the birds. In addition, 527 juvenile pheasants were also released in Goshen County this August by the Goshen County Rooster Boosters, an organization dedicated to improving pheasant hunting in the area. The general pheasant season in southeast Wyoming runs Nov. 5 - Dec. 31. Hunters, regardless of age, are reminded to purchase the Pheasant Management Permit or stamp to hunt pheasants on walk-in and habitat areas.
