Not clear if the band harvest has much to do with that though.
On our more popular band lakes--and wallye is king here-- non-native harvest is much higher than band harvest. And many other issues--from invasive species to warming waters to pollution--is affecting them. Similar issues on lakes...
Sorry about that. I'll give a summary rather than copy verbatim.
Last year our legislature enacted some laws addressing management of captive cervid farms in the state. A moratorium preventing any new farms from being licensed in the state, strict and limited transfer of ownership of existing...
Never seen a dog that didn't have a nose a lot better than any of us do. Enhancing and bringing that out can be done in training, have to figure out what motivates the dog and make it a game. Be consistent with commands and they'll surprise you.
I've used "find it" for everything from a...

No surprise, and I can say with absolute conviction--the only reason these laws were passed was that democrats took control of both houses of the state legislature and the...
Just curious--I assume in legislative hearings before a measure is approved they are very active in presenting their views on a matter? Sure hope so, if banned from even that there's a real issue with legislators not getting the expert opinion on impacts they need to make a decision.
Also...
If they continue to ignore you it's another training problem, and not really breed specific either. Many of them can have a LOT of bird drive--it's a good thing, but you need training to harness it. They need to work that energy off when young and it's good to have a kennel and stake outs to...
Zoning plays a huge role in housing density and costs, but we need different...not no or weaker...zoning rules. It's possible to allow higher density building even in areas where preserving wild space is a goal if conservation design goals are followed and we get away from old lot size and...
Traditions folks told me theirs and hornady's were the same thing, and suggested Barnes if I wanted non-tox--maybe traditions is more willing to help than others but I've found them great.
Anyone familiar with the big bear and little bear expandable fanny packs with shoulder straps these folks make? I like larger fanny packs for most of my bird and deer hunting and my old one finally failed after a dozen years of use. Can these be worn without shoulder straps without sagging too...
IMO everyone's wrong--first check with the manufacturer of your gun for suggestions, they will know more than you do about what works for your gun and save a lot of experimentation time (NTTAWWT)
One of the things I regret when dad passed was not taking his old early 50's model 94. But I had a deer gun and my brother didn't, and he had been doing well with it--and later his boys did too.
Just something about smooth old lever actions. Marlins or Winchesters. Nothing better to carry...
I don't shoot enough to justify loose powder and have good luck with 777 pellets. Cleanup is tolerable.
Someday when I have more time I'd like to try Blackthorn to see both how it performs and if the rumored easiest clean up of all is accurate.
