    goHUNT-Randy-onX

    onX is playing in the Private Equity ballpark now. That doesn't make the company "bad" but they have "big money backers." From 2018: "onX Closes $20.3 Million Growth Equity Investment Led by Summit Partners"...

    MT Licensing System - Burn it down? How to Improve it?

    How about some restrictions on the landowner tags? Spitballing options: Landowner tags are conditional on allowing x amount of public access for free. After they have accumulated enough public hunter access days for a year, then FWP can issue some tags for landowners to give sell to their...

    MT Licensing System - Burn it down? How to Improve it?

    They should 100% be part of the hard cap. The rest of it is just an attempt at price discrimination, where they make some programs less expensive. This pricing side is no different than MT deciding to charge NR $1100 for the deer/elk combo. They are trying to make it attractive for certain...

    Interesting Idea on NR license fees

    I like that you're trying to think a bit outside the box, despite some of the difficulties with the proposed system. One issue that we're starting to see is that states feel like they have endless ability to ramp up the NR prices. While legally they do have the ability, I feel like that can't...

    First Solo Spring Chinook

    I am happy to make the trip to the coast if there's a decent shot and a nice place to go. I've tried for steelhead on the Trask and Wilson (still have yet to catch one though), never thought to go for springers. I'll have to check it out at the end of the month/early next month.

    First Solo Spring Chinook

    I'm now trying to figure out where I can go until it opens back up again in the summer. The Willamette is still open but seems like there is a lot less bank access to chase them.

    First Solo Spring Chinook

    I really like having access to Sauvie. I spend a lot of time on the island for duck hunting, an occasional upland hunt, lots of wildlife viewing, and a bit of fishing. As far as I'm concerned, it is some of the best money Oregon has spent to better the outdoor access for people in the Portland...

    First Solo Spring Chinook

    It was a little cold for that crowd last weekend. Maybe I'd have the fishing spots all to myself though.

    First Solo Spring Chinook

    Last weekend I attended a workshop hosted by the Association of Northwest Steelheaders (https://nwsteelheaders.org/) focused on bank fishing for salmon. I moved to Oregon in 2017 and have caught a handful of salmon, but always because of kind offers from people with boats. Being able to fish for...

    Selfishness and Hunting, Meet Matt Rinella and Tag Allocations

    A big portion of the debate focuses on whether social media is net positive or net negative. Is having more hunters inherently good or inherently bad? I'd argue it is neither. Gaining 1 million hunters that follow the rules, hunt safely, and give back to the landscape seems good. Gaining 1...

    HUNT WARZ - bad idea or terrible idea?

    I hadn't seen this previously. I think the branding is really bad. I just skimmed a video, and the content was actually not as bad as I was expecting (though it went really heavy on self-promo and sponsor promo). They could have really messed this up with how they score, I'm glad that yardage is...

    Rinella article.. CUT AND PASTED

    They probably did. But what matters is that they had that gut reaction of seeing something and not liking it. I was there to explain the photo and use it as a talking point. Had they just seen the photo without a reasonable way to get the extra context, that potentially would have been a net...

    Rinella article.. CUT AND PASTED

    I was probably a bit overdramatic on the wording. My girlfriend is from a non-hunting family. I went home for Christmas one year shortly after we started dating, shot a handful of ducks, and posted a picture to Facebook (maybe with a gun in the background? I can't remember exactly). She told me...

    Rinella article.. CUT AND PASTED

    I agree with Matt R on many points, but think he's overlooking some important aspects. One is the context of which service is used. Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube have huge userbases that span across a variety of demographics. In these cases, we need to be aware of how hunting is being...

    Fresh Tracks+

    We were getting some comments that it was hard to keep track of what the most recent one is and what the most recent thing is that you've watched, which is why we switched to releasing everything for the week on Monday. You'll get a little surprise tomorrow though!

    Huh?

    My girlfriend got me a set of Howard Leight Impact earmuffs. It took some getting used to, but they've been great to use. They provide enough protection to often be used on their own. If you need extra sound proofing (what I would do if I had a brake on a rifle) you can wear earplugs, crank up...

    Sunday Pic of the Day

    Went duck hunting at the Umatilla NWR on Sunday. I brought Lillian along so that she could carry the decoys for me. The only way to get her out in the blind is to promise that she'll see some good birds. She was not disappointed. Just after we got set up (and before shooting light) we got close...
