    More Discounted Non-residents licenses for Montana

    I interpreted @antlerradar message as there being an indirect benefit to outfitted clients - as well as any other nonresidents in the general draw - if this new license type frees up tags for Montana Native family members now. I don't think he was suggesting MOGA had anything to do with the...

    Montana Elk Proposals with Director Hank Worsech

    I appreciate and respect Commissioner Waller again bringing up mistrust between the public and how these proposals have been brought about by FWP.

    MT ELK, Changing it up?

    If I can piggyback off some of the good thoughts espoused here from my own simpleton mind, as folks start public comments: 1) I've been around enough negotiations to know it's good strategy to ask for more than what you want to gain from the final agreement. What you don't do, however, is ask...

    Asolo Fugitive GTX 10.5

    Regrettably selling my early season boots. These have one season of use on them, as it was so warm in MT this year they were used most of the fall. I want to like them, but unfortunately they just don’t fit my feet in the toe box as well as they should. Tread and quality has been great, but it...

    Montana FWP

    I'm more than a little confused, but I certainly don't have all the information. I would expect a little more respect from FWP in handling the animal, so this does seem very odd. What does "too skinny" mean? Also, isn't this the definition of wanton waste, if this was not a possible CWD animal?

    East Crazy Mountain Land Exchange

    I don't disagree, but sometimes concessions to obtain non-contested access is better than no access, which is essentially what the public has now. There is also value in realizing a swap now instead of waiting/hoping/wishing courts will settle the matter and side with the USFS. That will take...

    East Crazy Mountain Land Exchange

    Same. I like the idea of all parties working to compromise more than I like the actual compromise being made in the proposed swap. I am cognizant hunters are not the only public use group who stands to benefit from the swap and we don’t have much leverage with the landowner, but I’m a bit...

    Anybody flown home with fish?

    Same. I also usually wrap with some newspaper or put all the meat in a black trash bag inside the box. One other thing to consider is that with a well insulated fish box, you can pack the fillets nice and tight and fill the entire container. No lost weight or capacity to your 40 lb. maximum...

    Non-resident outfitter license (MT) Bill is up for hearing 2/2/2021 (SB 143)

    Since I assume this will move quickly today, who needs to be contacted as part of this Conference Committee to try and head this off at the pass? Hope I used that political jargon correctly...

Used on one late season elk hunt last fall here in Montana. After using the hot tent, I would like to move to a smaller setup with...

    HB 505 - Elk Need Your Help

    Admittedly, I was concerned when I saw there were 5 more pages of comments than when I looked at the updates this morning. Grateful to all of you for keeping folks engaged in discussions on wildlife issues in our state through this forum. As has been pointed out before, it’s also important we...
