This might be good news for a change?
http://www.sootoday.com/content/news...s.asp?c=100082
See http://www.oodmag.com/community/showthread.php?81990 for announcement video from OFAH as well as link to media release.
still not expanding to other wmu's yet tho.
and still only one bear per season.
not complaining, great for those wmu's that have it.
but would be nice to expand into some of the other areas
Every area that currently has a fall hunt will have a spring hunt.. Whooo Hoooo
Great news. I can see us doing a Spring hunt at the deer camp to thin them out.
Their are second tags for some areas too. Great News.
I think there is a timing element involved with this announcement also? After the election? Let's be honest, many out there really do not know the difference between provincial and federal politics. If this came out earlier, it could have swayed many of the anti's. Maybe, maybe not? But the roar from the anti's is about to be heard soon no doubt!
The anti's credibilty is in the tank all over the world,Bushmoose. People have finally realized what useless blow hards they really are. No doubt,we may hear their whimpering and kevetching to some extent,but,really,they're fcukde.Quote:

It includes ALL of Ontario that previously had fall Bear seasons...almost 90% of the province. :moose::thumbup:Quote:

Just returned from a moose hunt in 47, no tags . saw 5 cows, not one calf. Expect bears had a lot to do with it . Good news, glad to see the spring hunt coming back. old 243

I wonder if they will shorten the fall bear season?
Even with the new rules, hanging baits only, baiting only 2 weeks before hunt starts etc., to come with an expanded bear hunt, I'm satisfied!!
Did you read it? Its expanding to every WMU with a fall season. Effectively the whole provinceQuote:

can someone put up a link to the EBR
See the thread below and note the post by MikePal. That would be Chris Lavoie's thread on New Rules. I'm not real good with cut and paste. LOLQuote:

putting that in or asking for hanging baits. If both are implemented the baiting two weeks could hurt the harvest numbers especially for those who can not bait every day.
I'm excited... Another hunt to plan for...

I don't think we should look a gift horse in the mouth. I'm just glad we got it back. It's our responsibility to adapt. I think I said this in another thread---Use it or lose it.
