I hope not to turn this into political banter but there are a few things we should be paying attention to. Recently, states attempted a land grab and sued the federal government for control over BLM lands. Luckily, the Supreme Court dismissed the lawsuit but it serves notice to everyone to pay attention and not let special interest try to take away what is all of ours to enjoy. Locally, with all federal grants placed on hold, things like the spring alewife survey is at risk. Based on correspondence coming from the White House this week, there is an interest in gutting environmental protections. Stay in tune and stay involved. https://www.reuters.com/legal/government/us-supreme-court-rejects-utah-challenge-federal-land-control-2025-01-13/

My take is I don’t want my rigger weights or divers to make a difference so divers are clear and rigger weights are the same color as the water.

Go Bills!

Anyone ever try a NWT coangler event? I see they have a stop in Dunkirk in August. For those that have competed, what are your opinions on the tournament experience?

My recommendation would be to do the old school method of manikins dressed in HUK gear and enjoy a full FUBAR spread.

Well great…..now I will get lost out on the lake.

Please comment while public opinion on the subject is still open. https://www.adirondackexplorer.org/category/environment/wildlife It is confirmed that wolves are left off the DEC list that is set to cover priority species protection until 2035 but don’t let your voice go unheard. It would be in our best interest as sportsmen to support the DEC keeping wolves off the list. https://extapps.dec.ny.gov/docs/wildlife_pdf/sgnc2015list.pdf https://dec.ny.gov/regulatory/regulations/proposed-emergency-recently-adopted-regulations/fish-wildlife-revisions

Let the good times roll!
