The draft of the 2021-2023 regulations (LINK HERE) indicates two additional tracts being added to Ceylon WMA out on the coast, Black Point Tract and Grover Island. These additions are briefly mentioned on pg. 75 of the PDF document linked above. After scanning through that document, I couldn't find any other additions.

Was previously 4,195 acres but is now down to 1,861 acres - 56% smaller.

Treat mtn is only good for hunting meth heads. That place is ravished by meth users, low life’s, and people riding four wheelers. Why DNR would wast our money on land there is beyond me. In 20 years of living and growing up in the area I think I’ve saw a total of about 5 deer on the whole place and those deer were running for their lives as they were being shot at by everyone in the area

Thanks for posting that

Glad to see they propose to reduce the archery hunt and the total rifle quota for the flint river.

Moving the date back for spring gobbler on National forests and WMA's also makes me smile. It wasn't the push back to the second week of April that I wanted statewide. But its a start. That might keep ooser's away to hunt their own states instead of coming to GA to hunt here before their season opens.

For once, they must be listening to public opinion.

First post on the forum... Live near Treat Mtn. I would not waste my effort trying to get to hunt an area that sees 4wd and atv traffic all the time.
