Well the expanding the zones be great, seems like the population is strong throughout the state. I’m sure the southern end of the state the leaf peepers and the anti’s will get their panties in a wad about a hunting season. Maybe they’ll run it after the leaves are gone to avoid some of the conflict.
Now on to raising money for the department by auctioning tags I got some issue with that. I’m not sure but I suspect there are some on here that will know the answer to my question. Why is Inland Fisheries broke? Did their funds get raided for projects and government short comings not directly related to fish and wildlife? They get a % of the tax on sporting good equipment, guns, ammunition etc as well as fees for licenses and tags. If its like here in NC some politician saw a untapped account and found a way to get some of the $ Auctioning off tags in my view is a slippery slope that if carried to its logical conclusion will knock the little guy out of the hunt and only allow the rich to afford it.
Well thats enough deep thinking for me on a Friday night :wink: :lol:
