I would happily donate to the cause as well.

Stop the bus. 

How is it that none of you suckers corrected my typo??
I was going to but opted to just silently judge you instead  :chuckle:

Hunter399, I think a big part of last years "lower" harvest was largely due to the crazy heat. I know the kids and I had big plans to stack bears last year but when the lows are in high 90's it really takes the wind out of your sails for hiking around dealing with bear meat  :chuckle: :bdid:
I agree
 August and September are pretty warm.
Not a lot of bear movement in the heat of the day.
Then they keep trying to shut the woods down every year for fire season.
And you can't tell. What lands are open,what's closed.
Total $!@# show every August.
Especially on the dry side.
I was unsuccessful last year ,but I'm going to try a bit harder.
I seen one bear last year, I was seeing up a game cam,but the property owner didn't want any body rifle hunting until it rained . I didn't even have a firearm with me.
I rather piss in the wind,then have piss down my back.

I cant say I believe the winds of change are in the hunters favor.

Well with the percieved red wave coming that could help sportsmen come elections. I'd have to double check the numbers but... Republicans need to get 8 seats in the house for a majority, and they are all up for re election. The senate needs 2 and half are up?  The details star getting inside baseball but this is some of the rough number I heard that generally side with Sportsmen.
In archery we have something like the way of the superior man. When the archer misses the center of the target, he turns round and seeks for the cause of his failure in himself.

I don't want to be a negative Nancy, but I don't like the sounds of this.

You will never shoot a camp bull by spending all your time hunting in the woods.

I think all the commissioners need to have their own ideas and thoughts, you know diversity, Isn’t that why they were chosen. Then sort it out with WDFW/biologists input. If they are all on the same page and or bullied by Lorna we’ll get screwed. Oh did the 3 new commissioners get confirmed yet?

We need to organize every single politician up for grabs this cycle. Question them, read their web pages, and find out who it is we need in office. Every district of every part of the state. Make a list of who it is we need to support come Election Day. Get posters and get out there. It’s never convenient, it’s never easy, but by god it’s what we love and live for. I will put as much time and money as I can towards anything to help the cause, but we need to get off our *** and do it once and for all.

Talk is cheap, time to put up or shut up. I’d rather put up a fight then sit on my computer, arm chair quarterbacking while our passion becomes nothing but memories. We can get all the sportsman to make a big enough commotion, we just have to start.

"At a recent Wildlife Committee meeting of the commission, there were also calls for a new approach to updating the six-year Game Management Plan, including taking climate change into account (most if not all of Washington’s hunted species are generalists with widespread distribution throughout the West), along with using more than science, i.e., public opinion and the role of predators in ecosystems, to determine hunting seasons."

This part especially does not sound promising.

I didn’t see anything in there about discussions with wdfw biologists. But then again, they just ignore the biologists when their research doesn’t align with their narrative.

So I’m assuming that this meeting is open for the public to sit in on in Walla Walla?

We, as a user group, ignore the biologist as well if we don't like what they have to say. If you were to use this forum as a barometer we don't trust them to count salmon and steelhead, we don't believe their deer and elk counts and we sure as he!! don't trust them to count wolves and cougars - but we were all in on "follow the science" when it came to spring bear.
If you're a Nigerian Prince with an inheritance to share, please call 1-800-Mar-a-Lago now. We're getting desperate here.
