    Bridge backup

    I use a second bridge sometimes for SRT climbing. It's a short bridge because adjusting amsteel after a climb is a pita.

    That definitely isnt the attitude here. Well at least as far as the Division of Wildlife which is basically a semi-independent division of department of natural resources.

    Money and access are the two biggest issues for just about every outdoor activity. Gotta be able to buy gear and get to a place to fish. Getting kids interested is an important hurdle as you can drag the parent in with them. Its why we push getting hunting fishing and trapping programs into...

    At least with the state agencies when they get PR/DJ funds they have to put up their own money first before they can get the matching funds from PR/DJ.

    I take issue with most non profits because I know its a nice scam. Especially when they get all their money from the government, especially since we know they have funded terrorists and still do. They really dont have anything to fear from an audit unless there was severe criminal activity...

    Hospital I used to work for hired several consultant firms over the years trying to fix them. The sued at least two of them. Some consultants are just scammers.

    Sponsorship, event registration, website is the only things listed under expenses that are direct activities. If you count the subgrant, we bring the number up to a whopping ~600k.

    300k out of a 13M budget is 2.3 percent. Thats all that you can see in what they spend directly on programs to support fishing. . So what are the consultants doing? Consultants generally arent getting their hands dirty. They make their money telling you what to do.

    Abusing DJ or PR funds I would think would be as highly offensive to those who generate the funds as much as those mad about general tax funds being abustsed

    How are they supporting anything when less than 5% percent of their budget goes to what they advocating for

    FWS distributes the funds to the states. They don't directly issue grants to NGOs from PR or Dingell Johnson. So there's something fishy with the article itself.

    Where do you think gov gets it's money. Gov funded is the same as tax funded. PR funds are from excise taxes.

    I suppose they could be getting PittRob grants but I wouldn't doubt it unless it was indirectly. PR goes to the state agencies then they distribute those funds under the rules of PR.

    Look at their tax statement and it's just a cash cow for a consultant firm. They spend almost the entire budget on consulting and salaries which is just over 11m on a 14m budget. Not counting pension an benefits. What they spend on actual outreach isn't even a half million

    Another junk article from outdoor life. Funny thing attributing fishing license sales drop due to this program stopping when the target audience doesn't even have to pay for a license in most if not all Really it's a needless program given all the other programs lutfgere.

    Same tree, double saddle set up

    I haven't done it but a big consideration would be are both of you going to be hunting or will one of you be filming. Whoever is on film duty won't need to move as much . If both of you are hunting, neither of you will have to move if you can shoot strongside on her weak and vice versa.

    Senate Bill to sell 3,000,000 acres of public land?

    Can't use footholds or body gripping traps without special permits . I know they are/we're trying to allow them without permits. Louisiana has a much better constitutional amendment

    Senate Bill to sell 3,000,000 acres of public land?

    Doesn't explicitly mention trapping. Florida doesn't have real trapping it's pretty much all nuisance work.and it's legal means are extremely limited. We like explicitly. We don't want to depend on case law. We have issues we're trying to get legal where the constitutional right would be very...
