Virginia Quail Hunting Information
Virginia has enjoyed good summer rainfall in many areas, one of its best summer's for quail in a half decade. Call counts indicated an improvement in numbers in many regions of the state, including the Tidewater (up 3 percent), East Piedmont (up 5 percent), West Piedmont (up 33 percent) and northern Virginia (up 32 percent). Generally speaking, the southeastern portion of the state and the Eastern Shore harbor Virginia’s best quail populations. All areas east of Interstate 95 tend to have more quail than points west, but there are still some pockets of quail habitat in southside Virginia, and in parts of northern Virginia. Simply put, there are still quail hunting opportunities for the 14,000 quail hunters in the Commonwealth. By combining quail hunting with woodcock, grouse and dove hunting, uplanders can have a field day in the state. Virginia also recently unveiled a new Quail Action Plan designed to help landowners conduct their own research and develop their own management plans for quail (www.dgif.virginia.gov/quail/). * Season Dates: November 7 thru January 30th, 2010 * Daily Bag / Possession Limits: 6 / 12
