Joe Watt Canyon

Perhaps if enough of us on this forum sends an email to WDFW complaining about what people have seen the feeders doing, that it might get their proper attention and force them to take appropriate action to stop the feeders from helping themselves to sheds. 

I like your intention, but unfortunately, I feel that WDFW sould use this example for the implementation of a statewide "shed horn" season.  I DO NOT like that idea.   

It might have to do with thousands of  miles of hiking and over thirty years of experience. You can assume or believe what you like about me. I know the truth and so do the people that know me and that is all that matters.

I hear you there.

Does DFW pick up a few sheds in the feeding site?....I am sure they do.  Do they haul truck loads out?.....give me a break.

spotandstalk - I'm sure you are right, I doubt they haul truck loads out at a time. But I will guarantee you that if you tried to put all the sheds they have pulled from the 2 feedlots over the years you would have a hard time getting them into three full size trucks.

If the general public can't go up there until May 1st, what gives them the right to rape the lots of all the big sheds? Everybody should have the same equal chance.

Its funny that everyone refers to "Fence Jumper", from what I saw you can walk right through the gate on top of the hill or roll right under the main gate with a pack on.  Maybe they should make the fence ELECTRIC!  Well I am done monitoring the chatter as it was fun but lets get excited about hunting next year and hopefully an early spring so all the animals get good a far away from the feed sites!

Here's where you can find Joe Watt Canyon sheds. Think of the gas money you save!

I've seen a lot of posts saying to make the fines higher, and that is a good idea. Unfortunately the WDFW doesn't have that authority, only the state legislators can change what the fines are. WDFW can request changes, but the decision is made in the legislature.
