Paging Duct Tape. He's an expert on this subject.

That is three years old. Is there some new news about this that I am missing? MG

[scatter shot]

^^^ yup. From memory, I recall we had a season for 2 years then it was suspended.

Old news. Whats your question about the article?

It appears that in Feb 2021 the government formalized a pathway for states and tribes to acquire a permit to reduce cormorant populations under a depredation permit, if they follow certain conditions. First condition being they must try non-lethal means of control first, and then they have to check a bunch of other boxes.

You're probably not getting your cormorant season back so don't get too excited.

We won't get it back. And rightfully so.

Why rightfully so? I can’t remember

Because we did exactly what was expected of 1500 rednecks.

We were told not to post anything on social media......... the first video was posted on day 1 at noon, and the first pile pic of 200 birds was on facebook by dark.
We were told how to dispose of them....... we threw them in ditches at the ramp, dumpsters behind gas stations, etc.
We were given the freedom to rally birds, but told to use discretion. We rallied them in broad daylight right up to homeowner's docks.

We did everything we were told not to do, AND we were extremely successful at killing them.

Nobody expected us to kill 52k birds and act like ass hats while doing it.

Oh, that explains a lot! Thanks.

It was the most fun I have ever had in my life. Every Valentines day I pour out a little bit of commonazi slime to commemorate the unbridled great times. Someone is cutting onions in here...

This is an old thread but I miss it so

[quackaddict]

I ate breakfast at Potato Creek Landing Saturday with my wife, and that slough was full of those bastards from the road back to the big water. I wasn’t around for the first seasons, but I was foaming at the mouth to kill some this past weekend.

Trust me they have plenty to eat. You can pull up in 20’ and throw a 5 foot net and catch hundreds of shad right now

I promise you that’s not all they are eating.
