I don’t think anyone should honestly be shocked this passed.

They already decide on the change and then ask people's opinion
13 inch rule
4 day doe season
Flounder restrictions
And on and on and on

Yea, I was gonna say something along those lines. They aren't gonna say no to the extra revenue. Public opinion/input was just a formality.

I wonder if the places that utilize private biologist will still be subject to the fee?

[Greenheadless]

If you are using a private biologist, I doubt a $300 would Even be an issue.....

Don’t think I said anything about being shocked. Don’t think anyone said anything about being shocked. Not yet at least.

I didn’t say you or anyone else did. I was just making a blanket statement.

Guess the money will go for state wide CWD testing.

Is that a yearly fee?

[M16]

Maybe they can start charging welfare recipients an administration fee. It never stops. I buy a lease license, hunting’s license, and hire a private biologist. What am I getting other than screwed by this new fee?

Awesome. So what extra work is our state biologist gonna do for us with this extra $$? Conduct the helicopter survey? Wait, we do that. Maybe take care of the several habitat management practices that need to be done each year? Wait, we do that. Oh, I guess he will come up with our Wildlife Management Plan? Nope, we did that too. Silly me, he will surely print out our tags and mail them to me? Silly me again, I have to print my own tags. Remind me again what this $300 is for?
