Maybe I'm reading it wrong but it appears they no longer have public lands closed to bear hunting in August

Quote

a Aug. 1-31 restricted to private lands only.

It didn't come through in this quote but it is lined out in blue.

Do you think they originally put it up to see if it would cause much of an uproar, then realized it did so decided they couldnt slide it by?

Maybe...but I'm confused as to why "InsideWDFW" didn't indicate anything about a possibility that the restriction may be dropped.

Looks promising? Maybe?

YEEEHAW!!!

But the funny thing is, I might have had private land lined up for August. It'll be good to have more options.

Even if you are hunting private land, at least with public being open, the private shouldn't have as many hunters. Maybe?

Good news..

The way I read it, it was only lifted for 2009. There is no season set for 2010 & 2011.

Correct...That is the way I read it too....if you read the wdfw answers on the comment page it give more insight..I of course and glad it was lifted at least for this year.
