we need to put something in about them also wanting to eliminate hunting with suppressors.

Where are you reading that they want to eliminate hunting with suppressors?

I think it was either on the hometownforum on AR15.com or nw firearms. Somebody had emailed about hunting regs on the cans, they emailed back and said it was currently legal. However they were going to be re-writing the laws on the next re-issue and were going to ban hunting with cans.

Spotlighting coyotes from your truck is illegal now if I read the regulations right.  It is illegal to hunt with the aid of a motor vehicle.

I read through their proposed rules changes and saw nothing on suppressors/ silencers.
 I'm assuming WDFW would post that up along with the rest of their proposals.

WDFW is getting out of hand.  I didn't spend a bunch of money on spotlights, a foxpro fury, decoys and a remington R25 not to use them.  Maybe WDFW should reimburse all of us for all the equipment we've all bought to do our night hunting.  Enough with the state.  I spend enough money to be legal I'm getting sick and tired of changes and holding open my wallet.  This s--t has got to stop.   :bash: :bash:

Why is that? Do you have an update? As far as im concerned if it goes up for a vote the West side will dominate and it will pass. There is no chance which pisses me right off because I habe been spotlighting my whole life and really really enjoy it. It's extremely aggravating when law abiding citizens like myself and my friends go out and do it right and safe but still get the shaft on one of our favorite pass times. Maybe we will stay at home drink beer and raise hell around town instead......

Did you click on the link that Machias posted? It will take you to a thread in which an official from the WDFW posted and let us know the proposed night hunting rules are not being enacted.

I do agree with you that there is absolutely no reason to change anything with the night hunting rules as they now exist.
