[QUOTE="Headhunter, post: 5038098, member: 652"] No I am not. Actually, remember the Cumberland Springs WMA? I personally knew the owner and who allowed the TWRA to use the land for that WMA. Know why that WMA was ended. Because the TWRA did nothing, all the TWRA did was say here the WMA is, go hunt. No work on the land, nothing, actually upset the landowner because they didn't patrol it. The landowner personally told me that. The local officers that I talk to are great. They do all they can and I know they are overworked, but to say it is absolutely untrue is wrong. The TWRA leases land to farmers on occasion, they barely do that, but how many food plots, crops, control burns, basically wildlife conservation is performed by the TWRA? They may do something, but it is next to nothing. I know they say are underfunded, understaffed, etc. but there is very little done for deer and ducks when it comes to land management for the benefit of the animals and the hunters. VERY LITTLE! And go watch below and dam in our state, go to the lakes and watch what is being done to the fish populations every SINGLE day. I understand and agree there is no way to catch every poacher, but the scale the fisheries are being destroyed is crazy. People even use cast nets to catch game fish and keep all they can get. Now they think they have the time and money to build and maintain duck blinds? [/QUOTE]
