How's that delay for two weeks on Cedar Creek working out for ya!
Cedar Creek WMA WILL NOT be open until two weeks after the statewide season starts. This year’s spring gobbler season on Cedar Creek WMA will be held April 6 to May 15.
In an effort to learn more about factors causing the decline in turkey populations, Cedar Creek WMA is one of the areas where research is being conducted.
Part of that testing will included the two-week delay on Cedar Creek. The delay was put in place to determine what effect hunting activity may have not only on the amount of gobbling but in the reproductive success of hens.
?limiting gobbler harvest promotes what?
More hunters not getting a chance to harvest a gobbler? I could have swore that the object here was to increase the chance of more gobbler harvest. Ok, that will be next year! Ok, I get it now.
So, there will be more gobblers to hunt next year, that they will not open up the season until the second week of the season. I am starting to see this picture now.
So it's NOT about hunter opportunities. It's about keeping the turkey numbers up and the hunter numbers down. I didn't know that gobblers raised poults? You are never to old to learn I guess.
On a side note..... Those cedar creek hunters just hunted the national forest until Cedar Creek opened up..... not real sure exactly what that was suppose to accomplish.
Truly and exercise in futility........and a ridiculous one at that.
Move the entire season to a date that the genius ones in charge can live with and leave the rest of us alone................PLEASE!
" I bet by the end of the season there will be just as many birds killed on CC as there was last year. "
I'll take that bet right now, make it as heavy or as light as you want to.
