Blazerman Posted February 28, 2014 Posted February 28, 2014 That is probably the one good thing you can say about this winter. With all the cold and ice, the fish have not seen as much fishing pressure this year like a lot of winters in the past. Crappie especially should be a little more plentiful once the weather finally breaks. Although it could be one of those springs where it stays cold all the way through March and then gets warm in April and all the fish spawn at the same time in a two week window. It will make for some crazy fishing if that happens.
Justin Spencer Posted February 28, 2014 Posted February 28, 2014 Grab a .22 on a warm day and go armadillo hunting, they are hungry and the survivors have been out and about when the ground is soft, I have only seen 2 live ones on my place and now they are just a shell of their formal selves.

ruthead Posted February 28, 2014 Posted February 28, 2014 This question is coming from someone north of the Armadillo range and ignorant about them. Why are they undesireable to have around? "Pretty soon we may not have any rights left because it might infringe on someone's rights"
Wayne SW/MO Posted February 28, 2014 Posted February 28, 2014 This question is coming from someone north of the Armadillo range and ignorant about them. Why are they undesireable to have around? It's like have a couple of hogs in your yard. They root for food. Today's release is tomorrows gift to another fisherman.
ruthead Posted February 28, 2014 Posted February 28, 2014 Got It! Not good. "Pretty soon we may not have any rights left because it might infringe on someone's rights"
MOsmallies Posted February 28, 2014 Posted February 28, 2014 Saw a dillo on the side of the road today, rooting in the dirt. Surprised me to see one on a relatively chilly day. Man did I read this wrong!!! Hahaha
ollie Posted February 28, 2014 Posted February 28, 2014 I kill em whenever I see them! Dang dillos are everywhere around where I live.

fishinwrench Posted February 28, 2014 Posted February 28, 2014 Man did I read this wrong!!! Hahaha Yep, it got me for a second too. I had to double check to see if it was oldplugs post
Seth Posted February 28, 2014 Posted February 28, 2014 I seen one out scurrying around in the woods last weekend. My brother had one in his back yard rooting around yesterday. He walked right up behind it and tossed some rocks at it just messing around and it was oblivious that he was right there behind it. He recorded it on his Iphone and I thought it was pretty funny. It's technically illegal unless they are destroying your property. I'm not sure digging in the woods counts. You also have to report them to MDC. Here is a reply from MDC I found on Facebook when asked if it is legal to kill armadillo's. There is no open season on armadillos but they can be taken under the "owner may protect personal property" regulation (page 16 in the Code). The damage has to be on your own property unless you are helping someone else eliminate a nuisance on his or her property. You cannot go hunting for them but you can kill or trap to protect private property. If you do kill or trap an armadillo, you need to contact an agent within 24 hours and dispose of animal according to agent's instructions. With that all said, I would have probably just kill them and not worry about it like everybody else. and just for good measure and a laugh, here is an armadillo gathering leaves and dancing to Michael Jackson - Billy Jean.
Kee sims Posted February 28, 2014 Posted February 28, 2014 Lol I read it wrong at first and had to reread.
