Would you be willing to pay to bait bear?

In order for this to become legal it would require a 2/3 majority vote of the legislature because it would have to change a law that was as a result of an initiative. Other bills simply need a majority.

This is not correct. After two years the law can be amended by a majority vote. It has been 15 years now.
That being said I don't think it will happen either. Look what happened to the Cougar Hound hunting pilot project. Hans Dunshee managed to kill it and the same fate would await this unless the House goes Republican. I can hope can't I!
And please don't blame WDFW for this. I'm no fan of them but this was passed by a vote of the people of the Great State of Washington or at least the State of Greater Seattle.

How much are you willing to pay to pick chantrelles? Huckelberries? Not talking about picking for sale, but for private consumption.

You already have to pay to pick certain berries/shrooms depending on where you are 

if you pay to do this for personnel consumption you are a fool!

Thank you sir you are correct. Under 2 years and a 2/3 super majority is needeed. Over 2 years and a simple majority is needed.

Typically I do spend over $1,000 on gas every hunting season, not including scouting time. Most of my friends do the same as well.

Good for you and them! I'm afraid I don't have that kind of cash to burn but then I don't work for the state either...

let me phrase it like this,(for the sake of this arguement you have cable tv) if your cable company informed you that you would be losing 1/3 of your channels and will be paying more for the remaining channels, would you keep them or switch to direct tv?

I wouldnt switch I'd just turn it all off....of course I am on the kill your tv bandwagon with Iceman

Great proposal, I'd pay equal to Multi-Season. It could be offered at the same time.

[colockumelk]

I absolutely would. Anything to make hunting better and more importantly to cut down on predators.
