| Archery Pronghorn and Big Game Season Proposals - Tuesday, March 24, 2009 Treasure Valley Bowhunters Today, March 24, The Fish and Game Dept recommended statewide archery antelope hunts be unlimited controlled hunts. The Commission adopted these recommendations. However, I'm not sure of the application deadline. The dates I heard at the public input meeting were May 1 to June 1. To be sure check the 2009 regs or call the Dept. A Dept spokesman told me two of the main reasons we got the unlimited hunts was all the input we gave them in an orderly manner. No arm waving, ranting and raving in your face type of comments. Way to go everyone!! Larv (full story) |
| F&G Commission Adopts Wolf Seasons - Tuesday, March 24, 2009 Treasure Valley Bowhunters Idaho Fish and Game Commission Tuesday, March 24, adopted big game seasons as recommended by Fish and Game biologists, with a few last minute changes in response to public comments. Commissioners adopted hunting season dates on wolves statewide, pending removal of wolves in Idaho from the endangered species list, expected to take effect later this spring. The seasons would be the same as proposed last year, except seasons would be extended in the Lolo and Sawtooth zones to run from September 1 through March 31. The seasons would run from September 15 through December 31 in the Selway and Middle Fork zones, and elsewhere from October 1 through December 31. Commissioners would set harvest quotas in August. Meanwhile, Fish and Game will respond aggressively to chronic depredation. Other seasons changes include capping elk tags in two elk zones; reduced general deer opportunities for white-tail deer in northern Idaho and mule deer in southern Idaho; changing general pronghorn archery season to unlimited controlled hunts; and increased opportunities for senior and disabled hunters. |
