[bowhunterbruce]

no leh for whites must mean ,all whitetail will be huntable via the general open season is what it reads to me.so anyone can take one buck/doe anywhere whities are open

[showtimebc]

i like they opened it up, but im sure the open season on does will only be a couple weeks long. either way, its a good move!

If you live here you only need a couple of minutes.And yes,it is a great move.

[Dmytro]

When is the new synopsis coming out?

[riflebuilder]

Last years synopsis is the same one for this year.

[kebes]

Last years synopsis is the same one for this year.

[goatdancer]

You'll have to go to the website for any changes.

LEH is just a bonus thing. GOS is where its at!

I think hes refering to the fishing synopsis.

[Jelvis]

Whitetails can be a good size but I see smaller ones in Kamloops

i heard a month or maybe even 2

IMO they should make the season the same as whitetail bucks in Region 3. Sept 10-Dec 10 and they should increase the baglimits in every Region to be 2 whitetails (1 buck, 1 doe). In areas that are overrun by the damn weeds, they should increase the baglimit to 3 (1 buck, 2 does).

Yeah but how the hell are me and the wife going to eat 6 deer?
Yeah,yeah One bite at a time.

[Cdn-Redneck]

Just like the old days, when there was a GOS for does.

Pretty simple, donate the meat to someone who can. I'm sure there are many low income families who would love to get given some top-notch meat.

That's the plan. Regions 4 and 8 will see WT bucks go to Nov 30, region 3 to Dec 10. It's likely that regional bag limits will be increased to 3 deer too. One WT buck, one WT doe, and one MD.

thats what i wanna see for sure...so if this happens the provincal bag limit will go up as well i assume>?

[Fisher-Dude]

No. Provincial will stay at 3. I should edit - WT bucks will stay open to Dec 10 in region 3.

[dana]

FD,
You just about had me writing a letter to the BCWF over a loss of hunting opportunity in Region 3. Good thing you corrected yourself. ;)

We gotta control the dinky dog rats in region 3! Kill another "cranker" eh! Last fall's is absolutely delicious.

[GoatGuy]

It will be ~20 days.

[dana]

Planning on having both the kids fill the freezer with them this year. Nice that they'll be able to kill some whitey does around home this year instead of us traveling to Region 7 like the last few years. Definately will save on the gas bill.
Any sign that those talked about youth tag prices will be coming anytime soon?

Not at the moment.

Nothing exciting on that front at the moment.

Youth will have the opportunity for antlerless wt from Oct 10-Nov 30 as opposed to Oct 10-31 that the all hunter GOS will have.

[dana]

Am I going to have to wait till I have grandchildren hunting before I see youth tag prices? What's taking them so long on implenting that?

SWEET! The kids will be happy they have some extra time, although I don't expect it'll take my 2 kids too long. ;)

[buk1830]

It's about time they opened up Whitetails doe's , my guess is that they will only be open for a week though.

Finally a move that makes sense!.

[GoatGuy]

Possibly.

Hmmm, good question.

[Seeadler]

Good news, hopefully the limit is 2 WT and 1 Mule Deer. Looks like there will be some kind of Antlerless Elk GOS as well as a season on bulls in the WK.

[igojuone]

Here is Fish and Wildlife link telling of proposed changes and asking for your 2 cents.

http://www.env.gov.bc.ca/fw/wildlife/managment-issues/index.html#wtdprov

[sapper]

If the MOE truly wants to see these changes bring about a reduction in W/T numbers then why not have the GOS on antlerless open on October 8th not October 10th? :confused:
For those of us that have jobs that don't give us the flexibility to get away at times outside of weekends and who have to travel 4 or 5 hours to get to an area where we might have some success the Thanksgiving weekend is a prime weekend for us. October 10th is Thanksgiving Day. Lots to give thanks for if successful on that day or on the next day when you have to break camp but otherwise a pleasant weekend in the bush but with an empty freezer and some tag soup.

[ChilliwackWinchester]

Last years synopsis is the same one for this year.

Nope, there should be some changes.

[ve7iuq]

Haven't carefully read all the postings on this, so it may be a repeat.
Someone said same synopsis this year as last.
Not so. They come out like this every year. The one we now have is marked 2009/2010. That means it is applicable for fall of 2009 and for the spring of 2010.

that's probably why also overlap on md any buck.

Baby steps, this is a fairly significant change for BC

[Gateholio]

The plan is to have a 2 year synopsis, starting 2010-2012. LEH will still be yearly.

[Ozone]

Any idea when it will be out?

[sapper]

Any idea when it will be out?
According to their website; "The 2010/2011 Limited Entry Hunting Regulations Synopsis is being printed. The hard copy will be available to the public the week of April 19, 2010."

Sorry, I was refering to the regulation synopsis, not the LEH synopsis.

[MichelD]

Unless they change that release date too, it'll probably be the usual, around the end of June/early July.

[bridger]

june 18th is the target date for results to be released

[MichelD]

I think the question was "When does the regulations synopsis come out?"

That'll be awesome.

[hunter1947]

I think its a good idea for GOS for WT does this opening will thin out the does but the management are going to have to monitor the population of doe WT to make sure that the population will no dwindle to a low number after a few years..
