Lots of confusion and misinformation out there on detecting in State parks. The FMDAC has put together this list- http://www.fmdac.org/parks/parks.htm

I hope you enjoy the site, take a peek around when you're done. The FMDAC does more for metal detectorists than any other organization, IMHO. Consider joining, or making a donation. They fight the good fight for all of us!

Right you are about the FMDAC. The State of Michigan is about to change it's ruling on areas in State Parks where metal detecting is allowed. The DNR rules say one thing and the maps say another.

Keep sending those letters to your State Representatives to get them to act on your behalf. If left alone, they won't even do the right thing.

In Ohio you olny need to file for a free permit at each state park you want to hunt. I do it every year and hunt the lake beaches.
 
Jeffro... thank you... very cool post and I really appreciate the condensed version!
 
I too thank you much for the post. I was able to find other near by parks to hunt that I didn't even know existed. 8)
