First time here. I enjoyed reading the responses. I agree it will lead to more poaching, if the license increase goes through. The DNR has never made much sense to me in things they do. If we could all not buy any licenses for one year we would show them who should really be in charge of our hunting rights. Of courseI know this is a very big dream but it would make them realize just how important we are to the conservation of this great state. They say they are facing a huge defecit but they drive brand new 4 wheel drive loaded pickups, they fly planes to keep a "Big Brother" eye on us. I heard the other day on the radio where they wanted to purchase a large chunk of land on the Lake Michigan shoreline. Seems like a bad time to do that, but like I said before they never have made much sense to me. I think there are other options to cut there budget then to raise hunting fees causing fewer to be purchased. And making hunting out of reach for some people, who use the game harvested to supply food for there families. Thanks for the time and any comments
