Pheasant numbers?

[AR-15]

We had some frost Saturday morning so the fire danger was down this weekend, but if it doesn't rain they maybe should shut down the hunting

Oh they won't, that would interfere with the out of state money for licenses.
Would be the appropriate thing to do though.

Really they never shut it down during the drought in the mid 2000’s. It was way dryer than it is now. Should they shut down harvesting or getting cows out of the pasture to sale. Probably should do fishing also a bearing could go out and start a fire on the way to the lake or fisherman throws his dart out the window and starts a fire. Letting the govt just shut something down because something might happen worked out good in 2020.

I don't know Kurt, I have just heard from other friends that have been out west further. Say it is very very dry. If people are smart about it, probably wouldn't be any issues. Like you say, tossing a butt out the window is more apt to be the biggest no-no.

It’s dry but we have had 3 months of dry weather . Hell there were kids that were born that didn’t know what rain was till they were 5 years old from 02-07 The river was down 1.5 miles here from where it is now. There were only 3 usable boat ramps from Bismarck to Pierre. I see having rules in place and actually enforcing them but shutting stuff down that people wait for all year is way too extreme.

the further west you go the dryer it gets. when i was in montana sept 1st i was shocked how dry it was. saw several places where a few hundred acres had burned.

I see Burleigh made it a $1500 fine for off-road motorized travel, so no 2 track or prairie trail travel. Hopefully they enforce it. Runs to November 15 currently.

I wish they wouldn't have put it under the fire restrictions , and issued something separately about it . Kind of hidden in the article I ended up reading . I can guarantee you 50% or more of people dont even know this is in effect. Also they probably should have issued it about a week before Pheasant season , not during opening weekend . It is a good idea but I have been out and believe me there is plenty of prairie trails and section lines being drivn down

Hunted NW Bismarck had bunch buys walking, and I posted up at end of walks, damn feet no fucking good was tough hunt took all day fill out, but my framer buddies told me so, still a lot of corn etc... standing. Good luck to all we don't road hunt it is BS. Kid has drone works good for checking water holes and game area's I am sure things will change in future so is amazing. Heading to Mott area this weekend will see.
