Re: Paddles Paddle season used to be two weeks and done, I wish it would go back to that. Splitting into two parts would conflict with the bighead runs. The paddles splash less and less during the course of the monthlong season, but I doubt archery pressure is the main reason. They are really splashing heavy at first light in June and early July, but it always seems to reduce as August rolls in. Even in the past, when it was closed already, there were less splashers by this time of year.
Moving the season a couple weeks earlier would make it easier to get one, if making it easier were the goal. I don't really see that it needs to be easier, I already consider drawing the tag the hardest part. |
