Ok so one thing i noticed about this thread is there are bits and pieces of what is going on, but no one has actually come out and told the whole story. I know it has something to do with slot limits on small mouth on an E TN lake, but I don't understand how people being upset about it could shut down the TWRA. I know there is a politician involved and that is always dangerous, but i was wondering if someone who knows all the facts can explain exactly what is going on or point me in the direction of the story, b/c i haven't seen/heard anything.

If the "sun sets" on TWRA you could have 95 different deer seasons for one...seasons set by Private Acts. There could be non-hunters/anti-hunters making decisions that affect your hunting. Loss of Public Land.............the list is long.

What ever happened to the "good ole days", when politics were
somewhat reasonable. It seems nowdays, that politics want to
control everything. Even hunting and fishing.
I'm not a historian, but it does seem like I remember this not
working in other countries over the last 80+ years.
I won't say the word, but I think some older folks might know
what I'm talking about.

If a bunch of hunters, fishermen and outdoor lovers don't get off their butts it won't matter.

I'm sorry the TWRA is having to deal with this sunset crap! I know I bust chops on here alot but I really deep down know you guys do a great job at managing our state wildlife! I think hunting is at an all time best in TN and TWRA is the backbone for that! The statements I make and the questions I ask are not for that I think TWRA is doing a bad job or not doing their job at all, its just asking can we tweak it or do better with it? "CHANGE" is not always good... I know a few examples that come to mind..

This could definitely lead to some very bad things for us as TN sportsmen. Dove hunting voted away because their cute little birds, things like that, etc. I really dont want to see it happen but this is pretty well on par for how politicians are these days.

I too hope this doesnt go through, but I also hope TWRA takes this to heart and puts forth a little more effort in communicating with those buying licenses and permits, etc.
