Nuisance permits are supposed to be a targeted response to a specific problem. When used properly they can be very useful and provide a needed relief to farmers. As I have said though, if you know of people abusing the system do the right thing and report them.
When used properly?? Could you point out a case where that actually happens?? I KNOW you will probably agree with this statement. This is just a shot in the dark, but I would say at least 80% (conservative) of all nuisance tags are abused and not for the intended purpose. And that is a crying freaking shame. And you know what sucks even more?? People like yourself and others affiliated with the DEC aren't stupid and know that the majority are abused. Yet............ there they are for every Tom, Dick, and Harry to have a little huntin fun on their buddies farm!![:@]
P.s. I've "reported" them until I was blue in the face. Close your eyes and look at where it got me or the hunting community around me!!
