They certainly are spread very thin across the state. It's unfortunate, I've always had great relationships with COs in the areas I hunt. IDNR website: "The Law Enforcement Bureau has 90 conservation officers including six supervisors, six recreational safety officers, and 78 field officers."...

They are in the wrong profession then and I would call their superior. They don't get to worry about stirring the local pot, they are public servants of the law. I guess I've got one of the good ones?

There's a lot of bad information out there too. A lot of people say that a landowner/warden/sheriff can't issue a ticket based off a trail camera picture or that there has to be a warning given first, neither is true. We did it this spring- got a great face picture from a cell camera 3 hours...

Good lord. Where did you find that info 1983?

Dang that's too bad. In Appanoose, Adam is very responsive to trespassing issues. What do you mean by "registering" @dreambig@84 ? Never heard of it.

There is quite a bit of federal ground along the Missouri and Mississippi rivers owned by the Army corps of engineers that is managed in partnership with DNR. While it wouldn't affect Iowa like it would Utah, it's a bad precedence to set IMO.

Sounds like an infection and not a disease or illness.

By sheer number, we are losing hunters. But there are more hunter days than ever before. I worked in studying the human dimensions of the outdoors and conservation for years and here's what it boils down to: we've lost a lot of the casual hunters- the weekend warrior, one weekend a year, just...

Respectfully disagree. It's time to end that shitshow, and it will be good for everyone. All our $ and "support" has been doing is continuing to pump Ukranian men into a meat grinder that they cannot win.

100% on the low scoring bully bucks. Got two of them right now that I will shoot given a chance. Smart landowners will use their new floating LO tag on those bucks, but many won't.

We go by FSA tillable acres. If there are discrepancies then that's a discussion to have with your tenant. 6 acres difference from harvest monitor from year to year seems like a lot...

I had it wrong, Audubon county. This was snipped from the Iowa Bowhunters FB page.

Absolute magnum buck found by pheasant hunters in a creek in Adair co. Easily 200.

Great story and pictures. Congrats to Hudson!

Bummer...county?

A big burn across the state would clean up a lot more than midges! Haha

Our worst trespassing time of year is spring- sheds and mushrooms. Brings out the trash.

Dang. None south-southeast of Madison Co...great information there though.

Likely it will need to get a little colder than 30-31. I heard a pest control guy say that bugs that hang around water like midges will lay their last round of eggs in leaf litter, the moist conditions will stay slightly warmer than the air temperature and keep them alive through a light frost...

I'm seeing way more Harris than Trump, but I speculate that's because those types are always the "holier than thou, look at me and my virtues". It certainly tracks...
