Did any of you guys get to attend the waterfowl meeting in Swanton about the adjustment of the lake/interior zone boundaries? Did the boundary get adjusted?

I didn't make it either, John. I didn't even know about it, but then I'm just about retired from duck hunting so I don't have my ear to the ground for that kind of news.

I received an e-mail from Crenshaw today. It looks like the meeting was cancelled. They've re-scheduled it for May 3rd.
If you e-mail Bill, I'm sure he'll send you the meeting announcement.

My hunting partner sent an e-mail to Bill about the meeting. Here is Bill's reply:
The meeting was attended by about 30 hunters. As expected, there were a good number of Missisquoi hunters there. Only a few late-season diving duck hunters attended. There were also a few Interior Zone hunters at the hearing.
Basically, only about ½ of the Missisquoi hunters spoke in favor of the proposal, and some of them conditioned their approval on getting a split season in the Interior zone. Since 80% of the Interior Zone hunters want a straight season, that is not likely to happen.
I know that this proposal has close to unanimous support from the late season diving duck hunters, but it doesn’t seem to be as well received by the Missisquoi hunters.

Sorry about that guys! With this weather we've been having, I must still be stuck in April. Time to flip the calendar page.
