^^^ just more hogwash and debauchery by FF.
Hmmm I pushed FOR an Early teal Season. What did you do this past year? I know the answer - NOTHING but bitch and whine like a 3 YO kid this last month on this site.

Really? You know that I do not work for them, that I do not have access to their records and it was a long weekend and yet you say that Gimp? What is wrong with you? Seriously? You know better....
So some of you want answers-here they are as I simply asked Brad the ED of the MWA to verify: (BTW -
ANY of you could have done the same thing!)
Swan Lake draw down- Yes the MWA has been involved in various funding of projects over the years at the Swan Lake WMA.
Lake Maria yes the MWA did a CPL grant for restoration work at this MWA a few years ago.
Lake Christina Yes the MWA helped to pay for a research biologist at least 13 years ago that was studying Christina and how to improve it. Lots of orgs have been instrumental in helping at Christina--Interestingly the one responsible for getting it drawn down was the CIA. (Christian, Ina, Association.), yet Ff did not mention them.
Many many others help, from DU to Delta, to local sportsman's clubs, etc. along with MWA chapters and their members. Also orgs like the nature Conservancy help too.
They ALL bring something to the table.As for the rantings of the internet jockies like FF - they are totally ignored by the the DNR, USFWS, etc Why? As it's just that - rantings. Who do they actually listen too? Common sense reasonable communications and those that actually role up their sleeves and help in the conservation community. It does not matter if it is DU, Delta, MWA, Sportsman's club,, etc. Are you actually trying to be of help? Are you credible in expressing your thoughts and concerns and desires? That's who they listen to.
As far as the Early teal Season - all this supposed uproar. Really? How many had contacted Steve last winter and spring? Hardly anyone did. I bet it was less than 10. And yet there is this supposed "the DNR screwed us hunters" lately. So quit blaming others for your own inaction/s. The bottom line is Commissioner Tom is not in favor of an early teal season, from what I can tell - never was, so likely it will not change for at least 3.5 years when a new Gov is elected. And maybe the new Gov will keep Tom on, who knows. And again, remember that the MWA never was asked by the Steve or Tom or the DNR for their stance on the early teal season. So get over it.
As for the MWA, Brad the MWA ED had 4 people contact him this year regarding the Early teal Season. I was 1 of them. Just another example of the apathy by hunters.
Some of you want to blame and point the finger at the DNR and MWA. The truth is you have 3 fingers pointed back at yourself for your own inactions. So quit bitching. Instead lend a hand at what ever conservation org that pleases you.
That being said, I'm done with this all as the answers were given and I have better things to do with my time than debate with an ass clown like FF any further because everyone knows if I say black he'll say white, if I say white he'll say black. He is nothing more but an internet Troll who wants to gloat to further pump up his pitiful ego.
Have a good hunting season gentlemen.

God, help me be the man that my dog thinks that I am.
