Chickahominy WMA (Deer & Small Game)

[alby]

A friend and I are looking to try a new spot to hunt on public land and I crossed with
Chickahominy WMA in my searching. I was wondering if anybody has any info, tips, etc
on this WMA?

Are their plenty of deer? Or will this place be cleaned out by the end of November?
Are there any key locations to camp out (NW Corner, Central, SE Corner, etc)??

Aside from deer, are there plenty of small game? Cause the way our trips have gone in
the past, when you've sat around for hours without seeing a single deer, Plan B becomes,
"lets look for small game", since we usually bring a .22 along.


In any case, thanks for any tips on Chickahominy WMA.
