Watching the meeting now. Not looking good moving forward. I anticipate a 5-4 vote, maybe 6-3.
5-4 it is. New policy before any spring season. :bash:

Cougar quota in the Blues coming up next. Don't hold your breath. :rolleyes:

Just wait until they start asking a bunch of questions on general seasons.

5 - 4 to increase cougar limit to 2 per hunter in the Blues. :tup:

"This increase of two tags per hunter is nothing but a con game, and we see right through it. You could give us a hundred tags per hunter, but until you increase the harvest quotas percentages per PMU, you haven’t given us a thing."

I think time is better spent talking to people about voting against inslee, murray, cantwell, and all other high ranking dems in this state. That alone will go farther than anything else we are doing. How can you "contact your representative" about firearm issues when they are preordained to vote party line?
How can you expect inslee appointees to represent hunters when his constituency is largely anti hunting ? New leadership for this state is the ONLY way to see change. :twocents:

I'm familiar with that, Bob. I was wondering if anything had changed in this meeting. :dunno:

Baker was surprised by the swing vote. They spent as much time worrying that bone as the spring bear. Sad state of affairs for WA hunters.

:yeah:
Commission is ignoring the department, so changing the department is pointless.

Inslee isnt up for a vote for another 2.5 years, and when he is up we should all fight him tooth and nail. Murry and Cantwell are Federal and not important to the issue at hand. Fact is we need to flip the STATE house and senate. The senate is particularly important because they control the Commissioners and they can be kicked off if not confirmed. Im not sure but I think republicans need 4 or 5 seats to take control and then they can take control of the senate Natural resources committee and wrestle control away from Kevin Van DeWege HSUS state senator of the year several times running. This election we need to focus local and make sure the State senators in our district, or next to ours get an email. I know one up in Whatcom county is Simon Sefzik. He needs you suport in the primary Aug 2nd and in november

I only mentioned murray and cantwell as they are our for sure anti gun votes every time all the time. They need out also.

Not a disagreement in thought, just in how to move action forward.

Exactly. It's an ok rule change, but absolutely meaningless to address the issue

Just curious. Has the quota always been met in the past?

I'm over it for this year.
Inslee
Commission
All of them can have it.
I'm going hunting ,instead of worrying about the future of hunting.
Going back to the old me.
Buy my licence
Read the regs
Going hunting
Waste of time ,if you ask me .
They have already made up there minds on spring bear and such.
Thanks a lot for all that voted that garbage into office.
