Devan S. Posted February 1, 2019 Posted February 1, 2019 Has nothing to do with fishing tournaments.....everything to do with predator killing contest. They very specifically define wildlife: (b) “Wildlife” means amphibians, reptiles, feral swine as defined under State Department of Agriculture rules, wild birds as defined under State Fish and Wildlife Commission rules and other wild mammals as defined under commission rules.

MoCarp Posted February 1, 2019 Author Posted February 1, 2019 I can see the trend growing. I suspect future “permits” to hold events and be expensive permits to limit the impact of events if any once one state passes it others will adopt similar regs MONKEYS? what monkeys?
Devan S. Posted February 1, 2019 Posted February 1, 2019 A quick google search for Oregon SB723....eliminate the Oregon legislature links and the news link and you will quickly find out who the money is behind the bill.
tjm Posted February 2, 2019 Posted February 2, 2019 It's clearly anti hunting, probably aimed at coyote contests; but, rattle snakes and jack rabbits have been mass hunted in contests before. So, how on earth do you turn this into an Anti-fishing Bill/Law?

jdmidwest Posted February 2, 2019 Posted February 2, 2019 The political affiliations of the bill tend to lean to the left of right. Are they attacking carP? Taking wildlife for entertainment. I am guilty. Have a few hours to kill, have to go kill something. "Life has become immeasurably better since I have been forced to stop taking it seriously." — Hunter S. Thompson
