So what is it that you think the DNR can do that would increase the number of small game hunters? I love to waterfowl hunt, but I have no expectation that the DNR should, or really can for that matter, do anything to substantially or dramatically increase waterfowl hunter numbers or waterfowl hunting opportunities. People act the same way with waterfowl. You buy a state and federal stamp and donate $25 to DU, and all of a sudden there are supposed to be countless waterfowl opportunities available. It doesn't work like that.
They need to stop catering to the auto insurance industry and knock off the 4 1/2 month long deer season.
