Blaze Orange required?

[lazyman]

I agree,except the regulations specifically mention that "licensed" Bear hunters are required to wear blaze orange when NOT in a tree stand. If we're licensed in the Spring Black Bear hunt and also want to hunt Wild Turkeys,that kind of leaves a dual licensed hunter hanging,doesn't it? I sure hope someone thought of that before the legislation was drafted extending the spring bear hunt.

if you are armed with a shotgun with either 4 5 or 6 shot I'm pretty sure mr or ms CO would believe you're turkey hunting. on the other hand if you're using a bow and dragging out a bear you better be wearing blaze even if you have a bag of turkey dekes on you

That makes sense. I'm going to e-mail OMNRF for a clarification. I'll post it if I get anything back.

As I stated previously, for spring turkey, you can be in full camo. For fall hunts - do you feel safe in camo when other hunters are out hunting all other small game? That's a personal choice you have to make. As for hunting predators - I myself prefer to be in camo, but then I KNOW no one else has permission to be on our family farm hunting. If I was hunting another area where other hunters could be present I probably would at least have something orange visible above my blind. Again, its personal choice.
