Waterfowl hunting blind drawing dates for Green/Barren From Lisa Jackson Frankfort, KY - The Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife Resources has scheduled dates for public drawings to select season-long waterfowl hunting blind sites at four wildlife management areas (WMAs) this fall. Available sites include locations at Doug Travis, Lake Barkley, Green River Lake and Barren River Lake WMAs. Each area has numerous sites available, and multiple hunters can be selected for each location. Seasonally drawn blind sites ensure that selected waterfowl hunters will have a place to hunt during the entire waterfowl season. The drawings for these blinds take place well before the season to allow hunters time to build blinds and make all necessary plans for the season. Upcoming season-long blind drawings include:
Hunters must also have their Harvest Information Program (HIP) confirmation number before the drawing. To get a confirmation number, hunters must visit the Kentucky Fish and Wildlife website at fw.ky.gov, click the "My Profile" tab and answer a brief survey about their migratory bird hunting activities. This confirmation number provided at the completion of the survey must be written on the hunting license or Kentucky Migratory Bird/Waterfowl Hunting permit. Hunters may also reprint their license free of charge after completing the survey, as the HIP confirmation number will then be displayed on it. Hunters drawn for blinds on Doug Travis, Lake Barkley, Green River Lake or Barren River Lake WMAs must locate, prepare and maintain the blind site for the duration of the 2026-2027 waterfowl seasons. Each drawn hunter may select a co-owner of the blind site for the duration of the season to use the blind in the absence of the hunter drawn. The co-owner must be present at the drawing. Hunters may construct a permanent blind or use a boat or portable blind, but each blind site must be pinned with a permanent marker identifying permit holders for the site. Those hunters selected hold first rights for use of the blind site, but these blind sites are open to public use if the drawn hunters or co-owners are not in the blinds by 30 minutes before shooting time. Kentucky Fish and Wildlife provides a variety of waterfowl hunting opportunities on WMAs. These opportunities include quota hunts, daily drawings, walk-in areas and seasonally drawn blinds. Learn more by visiting the Waterfowl Hunting webpage on the department's website (fw.ky.gov). The website also provides more information on the Wildlife Management Area & Public Lands Search webpage and the Kentucky WMA webpage. Questions about waterfowl hunting or hunting blinds may be directed to the agency's information center at 800-858-1549, 8amET to 4:30pmET weekdays, excluding state holidays, or at info.center@ky.gov.
