hey junior, first off,we have too many moose! too many accidents, too much damage in the wods for those w/sugarbushes, etc. in fact, the dept is upping the permits for this year, to just over 800, nearly double last years. permits are awarded by drawing, i think they save 10% for non-residents. bear are numerous too, new state record bear taken last year, both in size and number shot. rabbits? come and take them away! coyote? that's a name that leaves a very bad taste in many people's mouths, too many of them also. and as for turkey and deer, well, let's hope the news doesn't get out. we have the highest turkey harvest in new englasnd, with 3000? shot between spring and fall, plus our deer herd is in good shape also, second only to maine in terms of total kill. most of the people that i know don't go for fox, unless it is with a trap, and some people, but i don't believe many, run coyote's, they use their dogs mostly for bear instead. just saw a pic last week of a northern pike taken through the ice, close to 30 lbs, but still several pounds short of the state record. and vermont still holds the world record for a lake trout caught threw the ice, somewhere around 33 pounds, but fish equally as large are caught in open water every summer, too. hey rybo, believe it or not, this is NOT a pa forum, it's a northeast forum.lol. how you southerners got lucky enough to be placed in the northeast column is beyond me, lol

hey, what did i ever do to you? we don't want him here(alt), not even in the fall to look at the changing leaves! i can see it now, in charge of the moose herd, shooting calvs, but no cows, and having an AR on bulls, not shooting them unless they have a 75" spread or greater, lol.
