Bow Hunting Permit for Loch Raven
I would like to bow hunt in Loch Raven and am having trouble understanding how to get the free permit. I go to the DNR website and get this page:
http://www.eregulations.com/maryland/hunting/reservoir-bowhunting/
and when I look at the application, it just says to fill it out with no reference to sending it anywhere or getting anything back.
Do I just need to fill this out and keep it with me? or am I missing something?

Rule number one: Stay well clear of other hunters.
Don't be like the guy that walked within 30 yards of me. He just stood there looking through the morning darkness trying to make me out against the tree I was sitting next to. He wasn't sure of what he was seeing. Soooooooo, he yells out "HAVE YOU SEEN ANYTHING!!!!!!!!!" Loch Raven almost had one less hunter and it's why I don't hunt on public land.
Don't be that guy.

I understand what you are saying but this doesn't answer my question about getting the permit to hunt there. Do you have any information about that?

You asked about do's and dont's. I posted a don't.
It should be on the DNR site under Loch Raven.
They may be out of permits though.
I believe it's on a first come-first served basis.
I'm waiting for them to open up Loch Raven for a permit style shotgun hunt.
Good luck and whack a Bambi.
I didn't ask about anything other than the permit -- that was the OP in December 2012. I resurrected this thread because my question is related and I didn't see a need to create another thread.
I'm asking because it isn't clear. I've been to the website (just as I said in my post) several times. I can download a free permit via the link that I posted but it gives no information about where to send it (or if I need to send it anywhere).
Also, there is a lottery for shotgun in some areas but no mention of a limit for bow hunting permits in the reservoirs.
I have attached the "application" that is on the website. This makes it seem like I just need to fill out this and keep it with me. Is this correct?

Then fill it out and go hunting.
Have you tried calling DNR?
The number is on their website too.

I finally got through to a person and it must be filled with them. They should make this more obvious

Glad you got it worked out.

So you have to fill this out and send it to them, correct?

Still a lot of deer, although most are tiny. Park in the designated areas. Make sure you carry a copy of the form listed above and Stay out of the yellow safety zones. Good luck and shoot straight.

They emailed me a permit the next day

I always seem to have issues finding where to apply for the permit so I use this thread as my reference. This year the link was dead so I updated.
Kill those suckers!!
I live near Loch Raven and they get into my yard and eat everything I plant.
Wish you could shoot near my house as if the dogs aren't out, there are deer 50 ft from my porch.
If they are outside the fence and the dogs are barking at them, they just stand there and look at the pups.
I once complained to a tree hugger neighbor about them, and she said "Well, they were here first."
I understand I can't even snare them on my property. Thought about a paint ball gun but don't know the legality of it.
So if you see deer in LR with paint splotches on them........
