Sinclair tract contains a waterfowl refuge around Goose Lake that is closed from October 15 through March 15. In Ohio County, the waterfowl refuge around South and Island lakes is also closed from October 15 through March 15. 

Rough terrain from swampland to high ridges and deep pits; primarily reclaimed coal-mined land with numerous excavated ridges and water-filled strip mine pits (visitors should be wary). Excellent birding and fishing opportunities. Good deer, turkey, waterfowl, and small game hunting. One of the better areas for quail hunting in the state. Horseback riding is allowed on maintained roads.

A user permit ($15.00) required to enter the area for any type of use, can be purchased wherever Kentucky hunting and fishing licenses are sold. It can also be purchased online from The Kentucky Department of Fish & Wildlife here: https://app.fw.ky.gov/Solar/
