Why anyone would leave Illinois to hunt Wisconsin is beyond me considering we have one of the healthiest herds in the world.

I have been commercial fishing to kill a little time,that and working around 3 days a week on a farm.I caught this crazy fish 2 days ago but released it. its a spoonbill I guess they dont have any bones in there body they are all cartilage. Good luck this season,looks like it will be a good one here in Illinois.

I said it because Bow season opened up today and I see a lot of out of state plates on the public grounds. So back to the original question!

Well just cross your fingers that your dnr doesn't follow the Illinois dnr, unlimited archery permits is sure to put a strain on the herd within 10 years,but I never see many non residents around here until gun season.

I'll agree there is some weird people in the sticks of WI. Look at Ed Gein!!
Sorry just found this thread again. I try to stay out of the upper half of the state. I appreciate the topography that exists south of I-70. I don't like to claim those from the northern part of the state.

You do if you want to hunt in September.

We already can in Herd Control areas...most archers don't seem to overhunt them, however. The gun hunting season seems to rack up a lot more kills, especially on public land. At least they did away with the Earn-a-Buck program!
