Down here in the hills, you need a nap before you can walk back to the truck!

Now who didn't see this coming. Isn't this Dewine idea??? What an idiot. He hasn't been in office 4 months, and he has already decided to raise taxes/rates (all the same thing) on something he can't even get the funds for. Derrrrrr, smooth move Roscoe! I do hate a RINO, I hate them fierce. Republican my ass.
Say, since all that extra revenue has to go to wildlife related stuff, I wonder how much awesome, habitat rich land ole Mr Dewine is going to buy for us? I wonder which county it will be in. LOL LOL

I agree that age will determine when most of the serious hunters quit. At the age of 67 I still buy a hunting license every year, but use landowner tags for deer and turkey. I can only hunt my property by getting to and from my stands on my old Craftsman tractor. I looked at the idea of buying a Polaris Ace to hunt some of the farms I did 10 years ago, but didn't pull the trigger. I bought my property to hunt on and I'm sure once I can't cut it there I'll be done hunting all together. I started selling off my guns a while back, so I know my time is coming. I hate to think my time is short, but I sure have enjoyed every time I stepped in the woods over the last 50+ years.
I believe hunter numbers will continue to shrink as the years go by. I feel bad for the younger generations that will miss out on some of lifes most pleasurable times. I had hoped my grandchildren would take an interest in the outdoors, but it hasn't happened.

I have been taking kids small game hunting the last couple of years. Unfortunately, most of them already were hunters. I seriously plan to expand my circle by taking along kids that may be interested in the outdoors but don’t have parents that participate. The beagles we have are going to be a perfect excuse to do so. With the mentor license program, there are no obstacles in the way to prevent every hunter in the state from doing the same. I e enjoyed teaching my kids and it won’t be long before I won’t be able to go if Mason doesn’t take me. I think I should use the window between those times to take other kids.

Ferry service dock? That thing is not for public use, why allocate public money? The ferry ain’t free, they can build their own dock

Now hold on a minute guys. Just remember, you as sportsmen support this increase and asked for it. Right.... Right... oh.

Taking care of a ferry dock that services a private ferry line should not be part of the deal.
Did I ever tell you guys about Earl Wallace? He was the WO in Pickaway county when I was a kid. He drove around in an Andy Griffith looking sedan. Had no ATV. Answered the phone when called, or at least returned the call. And he patrolled known hunting and fishing locations. And if a bow hunter shot a deer and found it long after, he’d come pick that sucker up to make sure the bow hunter did not cut off the antlers for a keepsake. He did all kinds of sneaky, covert stuff to catch law breakers and benders. Man that guy was good, and old as dirt at the time. And all he had was a sedan.

I may be mistaken but,the way I read this the ferry money is coming from the transportation bill . not the license bill.
