Good Ozaukee County hunting land research starts with one question: whose ground is it? That's true for a woodlot near Port Washington and for a field edge outside Fredonia. Here's how to use the official Ozaukee County map for it, and where the map stops helping.
We'll cover owner lookups for properties around Port Washington, how to approach a landowner, and the agency that sets seasons for Ozaukee County.

The county map you'll pair it with

Where Ozaukee County land records are kept
Deeds and recorded plats for Ozaukee County are filed with the Register of Deeds.

Public land, private land and the rules in Wisconsin
Look for Lion's Den Gorge Nature Preserve on the county map; the private parcels that border public land near Mequon get a lot of attention from hunters. Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources publishes the season dates, license rules and public-land maps that apply around Belgium.
Permission, leases and courtesy
A letter or a daytime visit to an owner near Belgium beats a cold call; name the county tract, the game and the dates. Trespass rules vary by state, so check Wisconsin law before assuming unposted land near Mequon is open.
Picking tracts to ask about near Fredonia
Mid-sized properties around Fredonia with mixed timber and fields are where many Ozaukee County hunters focus first. Owners near Fredonia change, so recheck the county record before each season's letters.
Reading the land around Belgium
Terrain around Lake Michigan changes how Ozaukee County tracts lay out, and steep or wet ground near Belgium often stays in large wooded parcels. Liability worries stop some owners near Belgium; a signed release or proof of insurance can ease that, and Wisconsin recreational-use law is worth a read.
