AJE, what county? I might want to ask if the delegates are doing anything specific to increase attendance.
GCP, we have a new gal warden and she definitely decreased the age as well. I think we had over 160 come through the doors. Colony trap resolution was submitted.

We have 2 antis on our board here In Dane county. One wasn't up for reelection and the other one got reelected for a 3 year term. He's kind of a fence sitter so I don't think he swings a very big club.

He's kind of a fence sitter so I don't think he swings a very big club. the sad part is if you could get every ice fisherman on Monona bay on a sunny January Saturday to show for conservation congress you could elect any one you wanted to the board. if you didn't have to put your name and address on a resolution you could propose no ice fishing on Monona bay till after January 15 for fisherman safety, then you would get a turn out.

I see Winnebago County passed question 32 (69-25). I hope the rest of the counties followed suit.
A few of those fellows from here were a big part of putting that question together.

I heard a rumor that If you erase any answer to a question that whole ticket becomes null and void. Any truth to that.
The whole row behind me were young antis and they were erasing some of their answers.

Jackson. A number of the people were young too. It's shocking the increase in attendance we've seen. 1 thing that helped is our Wildlife Biologist moved out west 5 years ago. She had a chip on her shoulder and was very antagonistic. Scared some people off. I can't pinpoint the main reason for the increase though.

what was odd was I though there more like a 100+ but they say 68 voted , makes me wonder if it is the number of readable ballots or form the sign in
some people , you look at a question like 15 , should trappers be allowed to keep raccoon incidentally caught during the beaver season 58 --- 3 what on earth were those 3 people thinking like we have a raccoon shortage with them not paying anything.
that by the way was the closest thing we had to a unanimous vote with 7 people abstaining.

Did the Greenies elect anybody? The anti that's been trying to get on our county's congress must have finally given up. She keeps losing year after year. This year she showed up, but didn't run for the election.

It’s March the thaw. March is unpredictable and has a lot of ice, some good some not. Mostly it has awesome rats. The most sensible month for the resource in terms of value. It also offers some excellent opportunities, for those willing to explore. Some of my best catches come in March. Exploit the resource, it’s the duty of a fur trapper. My opinion, for what it’s worth.
This year I started in mid November. Caught about 4K with a helper under ice. The market and I are maturing at different rates lol. Truly amazing! I would be extremely impressed if the market was up to your standards, I feel you are a 10k kinda guy in the right times! Hoping you WI trappers see some light at the end of the tunnel with your resolutions. I have failed, and given up.

Did the results for any question(s) take any of you by surprise?
