MT Leg - Week 1

[Ben Lamb]

Tag grabs, Sheep haters and wolf hysterics. And it's only day 2.

It’s time to make the sausage. The Montana Legislature began January 7th. There are 122 bill draft requests in the hopper and 18 bills introduced.

Wolves will pre-occupy a lot of our time over the next four months, as will access, bison, guns, and a host of bills whose sole intent is to try the patience of wildlife and sportsmen advocates. We’re going in to this session in a different place than 2011.

Ben, I hope you have a case of Jack and coke with you!!!

 

[Ben Lamb]

I picked the wrong year to quit drinking.

I hope they can't F up my 2013 sheep plans.

 

[JCS]

I guess you will have to settle for coke and some tums.

Ben, thanks for being up there in the throws. I'll do what I can from here. I can quit booze for a month or two. Good for you to go for the long haul. I'm impressed.

As a NR headed to MT again this year I love the idea of a $50 wolf tag. Last year I opted for a black bear for the same price since they are delicious.
