Idaho house bill 677

[WRO]

If you’re an Idaho hunter, reach out to your local reps to let them know your concerns.

This would screw archery antelope hunters and others.

I'm curious whose idea was this.

Maybe law enforcement agencies got sick of hunters crying to them about blinds being used by other hunters, stolen, set up on water holes months before season, etc.?

The sponsor is a rancher from Rigby.

What constitutes a "blind"? A commercial blind, pile of brush or log?

After you said this I could believe that. Especially with the amount of comments/complaints of how aggressive archery season is down there.

I'm going to be going into some research of Jerald. Just see about his past.

I would fully support this. I would hope my home state would adopt something like this. No one should be hunting water tanks at all IMO. Even if you think it is fair chase, other wildlife uses those water sources. Not to mention it stinks up the tank and game animals will either go to another source or go completely nocturnal if they do continue to use the tank. I don’t think trail cams should be used on public lands either. Some of those larger tanks on the NF look like a White House press conference!

Got it, good with public land restrictions on hunting sponsored by the ranchers and not f and g.

We don’t have the same problems with cameras here that there are in NM, and besides antelope hunting water blinds isn’t nearly as popular as it is in nm.

This same legislator has also put forth proposals to limit camping on state lands and other restrictions to favor the cattle industry over other users of public lands.

I don't think any permanently constructed blinds should be allowed on public lands. I am pretty sure that in some states I have hunted any stand must be removed daily. "Temporary" blinds that I have seen, including tree stands, have a tendency to not be temporary.

I did express my views on the subject, I am for it.

Permanents are banned by both the fs and blm already.

Haha you so full of shit. I have been at a tank where a goat was killed and the next day they were back on that tank like nothing happened. We will adopt no such stupidity
