Best thing to do would be to go to a wildlife office and pick up a free Kansas hunting guide book. You can also find them in any Kansas Walmart in the hunting section, or other outdoors/hunting stores like Cabelas. It's a small magazine looking book that will give you maps of every unit in Kansas. And it will show you exactly where every WIHA (properly pronounced as "Woohah"
) is at. Without this book, you'll never find the right spots. It maps everything out exactly.
You can get a pdf copy of each hunting unit here:

But I'd still recommend getting the book to take with you. It has everything included. Many times you'll be navigating a 4 mile section trying to find the field, and without the map in hand it's a PIA.
When you get to the field, you'll see the WIHA signs up on the fences. They'll look like this:
Be very careful about staying in the WIHA plot though. Many times the land next to WIHA will be leased land, and they'll shoot your ass if they catch you hunting it. Not literally, but sometimes literally.
Did you have any idea about where you were wanting to go in North Central Kansas? I grew up in Jewell county, and still hunt there quite a bit. But I pheasant hunt all over northern Kansas. There's lots of good land in the area. I usually have better luck from North Central Kansas out west towards Colorado. North Eastern Kansas hasn't ever been as good.
I'd recommend units 2,3,4,8,9. That's some damn good hunting around there. Let me know if you need any more info.
