I didn't think they could set until after the hatch and pond counts... Either way, that is a favorable season !

the regs are set this year in the spring (April 13) due to change in the federal process which is based on last year's populations and habitat conditions. Brad B might better explain the federal process.

I like the new system. Waiting until the last possible minute as has been done in the past was somewhat difficult to work within. If you had to drive and stay somewhere, you never knew when opener was. If you had to work around other commitments, opener could be missed.


Good deal. Now if we can just get WI to move the zone line back to what it used to be. Northern zone closes too early if you ask me.
