Dog hunters are own worst enemy

In response to George Garrigan’s question about Zett’s, just thought I’d let you know that they are a hatchery that offers pay fishing. They are located in West Virginia just over the state line off Interstate 81 about an hour from Front Royal.

Thanks for the info on posting comment to the regulations being considered by the Department of Game and Inland Fisheries. I didn't realize that you could see the comments (on www.dgif.virginia.gov). Very interesting.
My pet dog peeve is that dog owners aren't suppose to run dogs out of season on deer, but are permitted to do so on foxes. Guess what deer dog owners say if they're caught running their dogs out of season? It's a pain in the butt to have dogs run through during archery and spring gobbler seasons.
Dog hunters are their own worst enemy.

Sightings of mountain lions are booming, as are confirmations in Maryland, Pennsylvania, Ohio, West Virginia and New Hampshire. There also has been a spat of reports, one with a documented photograph, near Crozet in Augusta County.
