Wait, so their legislature doesn’t want to increase fees for their constituents so they can get re-elected? But they are happy to increase fees for NR who don’t vote for them?
This is a shocking revelation.
FYI - I was in Wyoming last fall with two doe whitetail tags.
Also, CO is currently at...
Good grief. I really didn’t realize how entitled the NR were in Wyoming. Quit beating the dead horse. Anyone that doesn’t realize that NR make up the vast majority of license sale revenue in WY is living under a rock. As it pertains the the big 5, NR license sale revenue is a small fraction of...
Day 5. Last update, we headed to a new spot we knew held elk, but just few bulls. After a long hike in and turning up elk nearly the same distance we had already hiked, we decided killing one there wasn’t feasible.
We headed out and decided to return to the spot we had spent over half the hunt...
Day 4 remaining update. We laid in the sun for 5 more hours and the elk never showed. Luckily, @madtom kept watch while I took a quick snooze....
On to something else in the morning.
Day 4 mid day update. After not seeing the bulls from our usual glassing point we decided we needed to make a move. We hiked to the point where we lasted glassed the bulls the night before expecting them to be bedded in the drainage or directly adjacent to the private on a small hill. As we...
Day 3 update. Forgot to do it yesterday. My apologies. We returned to the location we found the 6 elk. I hopped out of the truck to take a pee when we arrived. I was interrupted by @madtom banging on the window. I hunched down (you can guess the result of that). Turns out he had found one bull...
Interesting day today. Quite cold in the morning. About zero with 2-3” of fresh snow. We immediately picked up a large herd of cows in their usual place on private.
After finding them and staring at them for a bit. (Willing them to move to public), we turned up 5 bulls in a virtually...
Day 1 update. After a very early night. We headed out to check zero on the rifle. All looked good and we went to check spot number one. After seeing 3 groups sitting there, we decided to check another not to far away. No one was there and we headed in. After 7+ miles, we found all of two piles...
This one is going to take a little bit of set up. I was working with a fellow hunttalker (who will be with me on this hunt) and we managed to find a perfect time to take a break and find some service just in time for the 10am draw result release. I was pretty much in shock when for the first...
It’s funny to me how many people here feel this has anything to do with Game and Fish. This solely has to do with WYOGAs stranglehold on the legislature. The wilderness rule is in state statute.
The same can be said for what just happened with the NR draw app deadline and draw date.
Are you really trying to suggest that a species that is being reintroduced to the area (they weren't some other larger subspecies as people suggest), which were extirpated, but still lived less than 700 miles away is comparable to cheat grass, which is native to Europe? Really?
Hopefully you talked to Jason Sherwood about your specific situation. And keep in mind that things vary by region in some circumstances (like @madtom mentioned, so its best to speak the the Access coordinator in the region you are hunting with your specific situation.
Swan can actually be done now as they are classified as a game bird. It certainly appears that WI and MI are up against giant fights to get crane seasons, especially with ICF spreading their propaganda.
