"C,-Place any substance, device, or object in, on, or by any water source to prevent wildlife from using that water source." Does this mean no more blinds at waterholes? I'm sure they could say that a blind scares wildlife away from water.

I got aout 400 pounds of corn in the shed, I guess I will be dumping it out in unit 33 in the next few days to get rid of it.

A lot of hunters just became criminals in the eyes of Game and Fish. Catch me if you can....

No, they said July 1st was the effective date.

This commission and department are a Joke!

A friend of mine got harassed by USFS just recently in 33 for setting up a blind and camera and a feeder. They came and took pictures, marked the area with flagging tape, brought laptops and were doing who knows what. They spent hours documenting the site. Know what they might have been looking for or doing? Tell your friend to contact me, I can help him.

Bill, so if salt has been placed, and you can't hunt over it, how long after the salt is placed can you begin hunting that area again? I would guess that salt will stay in the soil for many years. And if this is the case that means almost every waterhole in the state would be off limits, as someone at some time has put a salt lick there. And then the question, of how far away from the salt do you have to be to legally hunt? Just picture this, you are sitting up on a ridge, and a G&F officer walks up to you and cites you for hunting over salt. You ask what the heck, I'm not hunting over salt. And then he begins to tell you that down in the canyon below you there is a old salt lick that still attracts deer, and therefore you are hunting over salt. And with some of our current G&F officers, I wouldn't put this past them. Then think about this. You work your tail off scouting a spring or saddle, only to show up on opening day to find a pile of salt under your stand. You didn't put it there, but now you are prohibited from hunting that area. Who put the salt there? Maybe another jealous hunter who wanted to hunt there, but found you had beat him to the spot, or maybe a outfitter who has located a big deer and doesn't want anyone else hunting the area, or maybe a Animal rights wacko who doesn't want anyone hunting. Lots of Grey areas, where hunters get screwed! Let's not go down this path.

Spent all day refreshing my salt licks in unit 33 today. Went thru 600 pounds of salt today. That should last me a while if they decided to ban the placing of salt and minerals.

http://www.azgfd.gov/inside_azgfd/commission_members.shtml Here is the link to the commissioners email addresses... Get going guys!

Just sent email to all of them, come on guys, now is the time!

I'm still in shock after seeing 3 different herds in a matter of a hour. That was a first for me. Good job Casey!

I think we used our 4th of 9 lives today against Utah...

If you want to win, you have to call the bank shot...

Awesome Ram!

I'll be out on Tuesday! Then have to find Casey a piggy the following weekend.

3 - 5 burst photos 1 sec pic interval No delay between activations Face the camera north when possible, eliminates glare off of the camera, so others won't find it. Get a can of carpet adhesive, cover the lens, flash, and motion sensor with masking tape, spray the front of the camera and camouflage with local leaves, dirt, bark. Avoid water holes, springs, or tanks that are marked on maps.

You had better start wearing a hazmat suit when you go check your camera...

Try adjusting the sensitivity of the motion sensor... 3 burst is a good option...make sure there is not alot of grass or branches directly infront of the camer to create false hits.

Awesome!

Game and Fish at its finest...

Who ever said road hunting doesn't work?

I got this same tag several years back, and the game and fish guy guided me right to the troublesome bulls. I ended up killing what was at the time the #4 buffalo in the state. great tag...

Man that don't look like 33, there is grey sage bush in that pic. Don't thunk their is any sage in 33.

Where are you located? I am interested in the Bushnell lock boxes...

The same should be applied to Game & Fish.
