Pompano, I share your contempt for slob hunters. I was glad that fish and game was able to punish at least a few of them when they were busted at the
float plane dock. With all the traffic coming and going on Lake Hood, how would they know to check that plane? Almost as if there was a code being
broadcast on the air traffic channel (pilots hate slob hunters too)
During the mid 80s, we had five boys in the household, so sport caught fish and game was an important part of our food supply. We spent quite a bit
chasing it down, but the payoff was quality family time, and an appreciation for nature.
I have not hunted for years. It is not that I wouldn't enjoy it, but I am single and do not need that much meat, and can't justify taking an animal
just to give it away. I feel the same way about bill fish as well.

As far as I know Alasca is still part of the USA and the same laws are Enforced by Fish and Game in every state.. Coming in from Canada they are
enforced by US Customs (CBP). CBP has been entrusted with enforcing hundreds of laws for 40 other government agencies, such as the U.S. Fish and
Wildlife Service, the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Game and Hunting tropies are on their
probited list at the Canadian border.
Information on bringing back your game or hunting trophy can be found at the Hunting and Fishing page.
Currently, 14 ports of entry are designated to handle game and trophies; other ports must get approval from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to
clear your entry.
Depending on the species you bring back, you might need a permit from the country where the animal was harvested. Regardless of the species, you are
required to fill out a Fish and Wildlife Form 3-177, Declaration for Importation or Exportation.
Trophies may also be subject to inspection by CBP for sanitary purposes. General guidelines for importing trophies can be found on under the APHIS
Import Authorization System (IAS) on the Guidelines for the Importation of Ruminant, Swine, and Bird Trophies page

This was emailed by a certain Nomad amiga with a request to post it...therefore this absolves me of any personal responsibilities.
"My sweet husband invited me to go hunting with him this year. I couldn't believe it...the first time ever!
I never thought he'd be willing to share his 'guy time' with me and being the thoughtful man that he is, he even gave me an opening day present. He
calls it 'The First Timers Lucky Hat'.
I'm so fortunate to be married to him.
I have attached a picture of me in my lucky hat."
I do what the voices in my tackle box tell me.

Sitting in that duck blind with a shotgun, she will probably be safe enough. That photo shop job could damage her reputation a bit though, when it
gets around that she is 'horny'!

Hah, being an old waterfowler, I noticed the duck blind scene, too...and then thought.... Well, she might be in Minnesota, which, among other timbered
states, is popular for deer hunting with a slug-loaded shotgun.
Then again, I've heard stories of fellows saying they had some great 'sound' shots on their hunts?
It's no wonder some poor blokes are shot out of their tree stands!

Wyoming turf and surf
While walleye fishing on Seminoe Lake in western Wyoming we allways made sure we had a rifle on board and when the proghorns came down to water
...well, guess what we had for dinner. My uncle has a house there just outside the park land so their rules do not apply.

Although I've never wanted to hunt that way, I've seen where it's pretty much the same practice at Fort Peck Lake in NE Montana....but there are rules
to be followed which are nationwide: It is illegal to shoot from a boat if the motor is running or the boat is still moving. Also your firearm must
be unloaded if in a boat with the motor running or the boat is still moving. Illegal to shoot within 100 yards of any dwelling or 50 yards from any
road's centerline.
