Torch,

My jab was meant to be light-hearted which is why I included the . I understand your concerns about the big money folks but not all of them are as you describe. Just like us average guys they can be passionate about duck hunting. True, seasons like you describe would weed some of them out ...

Yeah let's get rid of the "wannabe's" so that we can sit around and moan about how we are a vanishing breed and are so outnumbered by the anti-hunters.

I submit that we let the management folks do their job and trust them on the numbers as long as it can be shown that they are using valid data ...

Scott,

I would have to say that hunter satisfaction differs with the individual hunter and is really a moot point. The overriding factor should be the management of the resource not a subjective idea of satisfaction. If the bird numbers can support a 6 bird limit then great. If it can't then ...

Don't teach them to hunt because there are those that oppose it? How many other rights are you willing to surrender so that they don't "get their hearts broken" if someone is successful in getting them taken away? That's just silly. Do what you can to preserve those rights and pass that heritage ...

Wingman,

Are you going to be guiding during the conservation order season? I know the MDWFP site gives the dates but your web site still shows the season as "pending." That might be the best time if the geese are still around. (Unless of couse everyone want a shot at specks and canadas too.) The ...

You guys just need to learn how to cook that's all. Send them snows down to the coast. I'll shoot 'em and eat 'em.

Come on down here to the coast and see what you think! Me, LFTHRN, and SMWHRSTH and a entire host of other coast hunters would love to be "disappointed" with a limit consisting of a mixed bag.

All I'm saying is be thankful for what you have, the good Lord may not let you have it tomorrow ...

Thanks SLH. I was aware of those requirements but was afraid that I had missed something new.

Let me add my thanks with the others. We really appreciate your willingness to go the extra mile to help us stay within the regs.

I want to make sure you all are legal this hunting season. We have had a lot of discussion on MSDucks about tagging migratory game birds.


Scott,

Can you post the tagging requirements or a link to them please? Thanks.

Interesting questions.

"So why are you here on this forum?"

Because of my love for waterfowl hunting.

"What are you after?"

Nothing. I came with no expectations. Still don't have any.

I've already received more than I came for. Thanks to all.

Wingman,

Nope, you aren't stupid. What this thread has done is identify the fact that many of these events at least have the hope of enticing people to become "chemically stupid" so they will pony up with the cash for the fund raisers.

Other than that our popular culture has dictated that ...
