I agree with you bocat... that is the main problem.  Just because the public can no longer comment on that proposal at the Fish and Wildlife Commission meeting, doesn't mean we can't comment on related topics and anyone can comment anytime they want to the WDFW Wildlife Program...  and should.

Redmist:
Correct me if I'm mistaking, but according to what I just read, we can be drawn for a quality deer hunt (buck) and a doe hunt, and a quality (bull) hunt along with a cow hunt.  We can hunt for each animal but will have to stop hunting when either of the two are harvested.  Then retain the points for the animal we don't harvest?  How is this inforced, reported?  For example, Jane gets a quality bull and cow permit.  She then kills and tags a doe, transports it home and sticks it in the freezer.  Then she hits the field again and kills a quality buck on the late hunt, tags it, again drives home w/o being checked and sticks it in the freezer.  If she didn't get checked on the first tag and registered as a kill, nothing stops her paperwork wise from continuing to hunt for the big buck.  Unless Jane must carry all tags unnotched on her person in the field.  Then, what prevents her from killing a Quality buck, punching the tag, taking it home unchecked, and reporting that she killing a skank and retains her Quality buck permit points for next year?  There must be more paperwork and reporting, or what I just said (above) will be realized?  Do you think that maybe it isn't  regognized as a Big *censored*ing Deal until it is signed into law.  All quotes from Biden are now legal vocabulary and should be uncensored on this site.  Democrifice of America.

The way that I understand it is if you get drawn in more than 1 pool you lose your points in whatever categories you were drawn in (quality and doe, or bull and cow). You don't get extra tags, just a permit saying that you can legally hunt in those seasons for those animals. Once you take an animal in any category then you are done and can not hunt that species anymore. If you get drawn for a quality buck permit and a doe permit then you can still only kill one animal total (if you kill a Quality area buck then you can't hunt for does, or if you kill a doe then you can't hunt for the buck anymore).If you choose to kill one animal and not cut your tag and then go kill the other animal and get caught you will be guilty of poaching. :bdid: As for as I know there is no provision for turning in the tag you don't want. When the regs come out everyone needs to check them over real well so that you don't get caught because the rules are not what you thought.

bobcat:
As always, a person can only have one deer tag and one elk tag. When you draw a special hunt you have drawn a permit, not a tag. If you draw buck and doe permits, you can hunt with both permits but if you kill a deer, you use your one and only tag. You have already lost your points in both categories by drawing both permits.

Redmist:
Ok, I think I get it.  We can be drawn for both doe and quality, but will loose points in both catagories when drawn regardless of sex killed.  Took me a while.  Sorry, I'm still glazed from Biden and Obama on the healthcare pat on the back.  Gotta blame somebody, and not the Republicans.
