[QUOTE="Retired Educator, post: 229307, member: 3373"] Agree that public land needs public access. At the same time there is a fine line where I'm pretty sure there are no State Game and Fish Departments that wants to cross. That line is the balance between respecting private land rights and keeping private land involved in the benefit of all game.Both need each other and it benefits no one when there is no cooperation. For sure there are areas of the country where cooperation is better than others and for different types of game it's better. An example from which I have a little experience is the difference between antelope and elk in MT. Not all that difficult to gain permission to hunt antelope, not so easy for elk on private land. In ND, pretty easy to find access to waterfowl, pheasants are not locked out but more protected. These days, getting the feds involved is no guarantee that the result will e favorable to sportsmen and women. [/QUOTE]
