yea makes me sick thinking about how WA lost that right.
The only man who never makes a mistake, is the man who never does anything!!
The further one goes into the wilderness, the greater the attraction of its lonely freedom.

If that's a 55 gallon drum, this fat old lazy guy would be happy with that! 
As long as we have the habitat, we can argue forever about who gets to kill what and when.  No habitat = no game.

I’d hold out too after seeing last years pics
https://www.howlforwildlife.org/take_action  It takes 10 seconds and it’s free. To easy to make an excuse not to make your voice heard!!!!!!

Oh yes a really nice big blackie showed up tonight.  An hour before dark.  Also had a bear hit the bait today at 2:05 pm.  And the fun begins!!!  I'll post a photo tomorrow.

Man baiting would be a blast! Good luck this season  :tup:
It is a blast Mike, but it's a lot of time and work, plus gas money.  I sure hope we can bring it back someday, good luck Machias!
