    Youth shotgun

    Long ago I got my young kids a super small 20 ga single shot Savage. It was just beyond legal length cut off barrel and with a short stock - perfect for handling by an 8 to 11 yr old. PROBLEM: with full power loads, it kicked like a mule. I got a 20 ga reloader and loaded up a box or two minimum loads and it worked really well for a training gun but the shots could only be 10-15 yards with no choke. Note this gun is only good for about 2 years. Those kids grow but more importantly, they want the 3 shots volley availability!. Awh those were the days.

    New Mexico desert sheep

    The desert sheep in Arizona are in Unit 28. No one knows the area better (both sides of the border) that the guides for Double H Outfitters and specifically Matt Holcomb. https://www.facebook.com/pg/Double-H-Outfitters-Arizona-262297363806994/about/

    Lee's Ferry Walk In Question

    You boys seem to imply it is not dangerously cold. t becomes very dangerous in water temperatures between 50 and 60 degrees. You lose the ability to control breathing in this temperature range, according to the National Center for Cold Water Safety. ... In addition, depending on the water temperature, you can lose the ability to use your hands in one minute.May 3, 2018 https://weather.com/science/weather-explainers/news/2018-05-03-dangerous-early-season-cold-water
  6. I get the impression that is a no on personally? I have never heard of anybody hunting snipe (or crows legally).
  7. You've done so much different stuff. One of the regs is on Snipe. Is that a real thing? (kind of like crow hunting in AZ) Have you ever? Pics? I always thought snipe hunting involved gullible kids, a garbage can lid and a bag!

    Proposed changes to fishing regulations

    That is quite a change in the bag limit on trout and then big changes to Nelson.

    New Garmin Inreach

    There is a "Garmin InReach Users" forum on Facebook that is useful if any of you have any questions. Unfortunately, Garmin got hacked and having some issues right now but they say the InReach is not compromised.

    Lee's Ferry Walk In Question

    This is some of the most dangerous water in AZ due to the cold water temps. Might want to reconsider.

    How many hunters vote?

    It's interesting how uninformed, especially the young adults, can be but that has not changed since I was a youth. I will confess up front my first presidential vote was cast for Jimmy Carter, where he lost his bid as the incumbent president to Reagan. I had no idea what platform he ran on. I feel so ashamed! I was in college at the U of A so was undoubtedly influenced by that. There is so much pressure from the news media and government schools, I wonder how these young adults are not duped. My "kids" are now 30-somethings and way more informed and quite biased in the reverse direction so I feel pretty good about that.

    Sad Day

    Seems to me I remember him harvesting a bison already but can't remember if that was a depredation tag that would not have counted towards the bag limit.
