Several friends and I went to the meeting tonight with the Fish and Game. I felt there was some great discussion and some good ideas and comments. Everyone was respectful and concerned. Ideas were taken seriously and I feel will impact decisions that need to be made. The Fish and Game people handled themselves very professionally and for the most part, were concerned about the very same things everyone else was. I don't know if they'll see this but I think they are due a "thank you" for time they spend away from their families. I know they quite often get accused of not doing their jobs, but my experience tells a different story. We got checked twice this last fall. One time was on the antelope hunt where the warden walked 1 and 1/2 miles off the 2 track to come check us. The other was on the elk hunt when another warden hiked at least a 1/2 mile down a steep canyon to check us. It was great to see them out away from their truck. It's a pretty thankless job and they sure don't do it for the money.
