    You are going to have to carry the torch partner. No way i can get there by ten am. Hopefully Clark and others will show up and raise some facts..

    Talking points :

    1. All carp captured have shown as below the standard for health , set as an indices of 1. In other words they are over stocking them and the fish are starving.

    2. Carp exclusion cages are showing that highly desired native submerged aquatic vegetation can and will regenerate when carp numbers are kept low.

    3. FERC permits require 10 % in aquatic vegetation , herbaceous is NOT aquatic and therefore Cypress and Gum trees should not be included in the 10%. To include as such is fraudulent as to permit renewal and requirements.

    4. Where spraying is required - DI Quat is non selective and moderately to highly toxic to many species from humans to inverts and ducks. Procella is selective and virtually non toxic per the ratings. Push for a switch over, just a far safer chem in general especially as to toxicity.

    Yes
    Be proactive about improving public waterfowl habitat in South Carolina. It's not going to happen by itself, and our help is needed. We have the potential to winter thousands of waterfowl on public grounds if we fight for it.

    Yup, he's crazy...


    like a fox. The dude may be coming in a little too hard and crazy but 90% of everything he says is correct.

    Sort of like Toof. But way smarter.

    Delta in a nutshell: Breeding grounds + small wetlands + big blocks of grass cover + predator removal + nesting structures + enough money to do the job= plenty of ducks to keep everyone smiling!

    Of course not. I was never a conspiracy theorist until I scratched the surface of the world of wildlife and politics. No tinfoil hats required.
    Listen to your elders. Not because they are always right but because they have more experiences of being wrong.

    Silly to think it’s not happening here.

    We have someone already working for us! Strick9 and others are doing what they can to promote better habitat for SC not just in waterfowl but for all game species. If you are not a member on CWS you need to be. This can not be done alone and soon it will come to needing others to step up unless we want it to get worse!
