anyone wanting an any deer permit can apply for it and get it from | ||||
| the computer when buying your deer tag. | |||||
| Another big change this year are the new deer and turkey permits. | |||||
| Your transportation tags are part of the permit and the old ones that | |||||
| were given separately will no longer be available except maybe for | |||||
| landowners. Nothing certain about the old tags yet but we should | |||||
| know November 9, then closes during gun season, and re-opens | |||||
| November 21, and runs to January 15, 2002. Another big change | |||||
| this year is that you can get bonus tags, which are only good for does, | |||||

Saturday and Sunday, October 27 and 28, you have to pass the | ||||
| hunters safety course, and as of July 1st, 2001, if you buy any | |||||
| firearm's tag you have to show your hunters safety card or have | |||||
| your hunters I.D. number on your Heritage Card. Unless you have it | |||||
| on your person they are not suppose to sell you any type of firearm's | |||||
| permit. So if you want to get in on the Youth Hunt get signed up | |||||

|
|
the river bluegill, cut shad, chicken liver and stink baits are good, and | ||||
| in lakes and ponds Sonnys Catfish Bait has been excellent. If you | |||||
| or your child get a big one or a nice stringer of fish, bring them to the | |||||
| bait store and we'll get a picture and we will post it on the web site. | |||||
| Not many Master Angler bass being brought in, most of bass being | |||||
| caught are 10 to 14 inches long. Firearm's Deer Season open | |||||
| November 10th, and runs thru November 20th. When applying | |||||
| for an any deer permit, be sure you have the correct unit number or | |||||
| you can be issued a ticket. If you're not sure of the unit buy your | |||||
| permit from me, ask and we will look it up. | |||||
| Have a great Summer! | |||||
