Garry you mention a Feb. season for woodcock which i did not know about and that opens another discussion. The season in Canada opens in Sept. with a limit of 8 and as they migrate south continues through Feb. That is 6 months. It can be argued that many do not hunt them in the south but i believe that has changed with the drop in quail numbers.

In my 77 years i have experienced the management of ducks, \striped bass, cod and others for maximum yield and opportunity for us and the results are obvious. The people in charge are in a position of having to answer to a constituency that wants it both ways, abundance and use. I do not envy them. A very complicated subject with no clear answer.
