I have had the same interactions with DOC about a place where I hunt here in the Manawatu. The topo map on my phone shows the DOC boundaries following the river bed, but the river has changed that much the doc land is on one side and is very hard to follow.
Talking to the DOC office , they didnt really want to give me a straight answer as I felt they dont want to be held to account if they have got it wrong.
They should know the boundaries and should be able to advise people where they can and cannot shoot.
