[PHunter]

Does anyone have a summary of the 2022 hunting proposals that were recently adopted by the WDFW commission?

We'll probably see the new hunting regulation pamphlet posted online this week.

All permit numbers are in the links at the above webpage.

Good to know Ridgerunner. I tried watching the big game season approval part of the commission meeting. But, I got so disgusted by some of the new commissioner's perspectives and lines of inquiry I couldn't stomach it and bugged out before I blew a gasket

My stupid Iphone thinks those numbers to look at the link are phone numbers, it want to call and not pull up the content!

"(c) A person may not use the aid of a dog to take, chase, harm or
harass big game. The use of one blood-trailing dog controlled by leash
during lawful hunting hours within 72 hours of shooting a big game
animal, except bear and cougar, is allowed to track wounded big game
and aid in recovery. "

So this was an amendment correct? We can now use a dog to track large game?

Nothing new there...

You can come over to this side and get an incentive limper permit though.

That was what I got out of it. I am all for it. Sometimes there is not a great blood trail, and you may stop looking 20’ too soon.
