Happy Memorial Day! In this week's episode of We Love Outdoors with Rich Davenport, your humble host delves deep into the 2021 deer harvest report, to see what is behind the numbers, and what dynamics are revealed in this report.
Although the total harvest was down, the buck harvest was down slightly, declines were driven by antlerless harvest and it appears a lower harvest during the archery seasons as well.
With Memorial Day comes the unofficial start of summer, and the official start of camping season, and it is expected that parks will see another record year for visitors and overnight stays, as covid covid covid has reinvigorated many outdoors pursuits, not just hunting and fishing. Speaking of fishing, inland musky season is now open, and the walleye bite is starting to pick up during the day. Crappie re still active in the weeds at Chautauqua and Findley Lakes, but expect this to slow as the weeds really thicken up.
Tragic events and acts of evil have once again brought semi automatic rifles and the 2nd Amendment back into debate, with communist Democrats predictably calling for punishing law abiding people through targeting inanimate objects we have a right to keep and bear, for the actions of one deranged teenager. Not very smart.
The legislative session for the NYS Legislature ends June 2, 2022, and we hope nothing gets done so we limit the damage being done to our state by the radical left. The county opt out bills did pass the legislature and are now on the Governor's desk for signing or veto. Please reach out and ask Hochul to veto this legislation as it is unneeded and unenforceable.
And the energy debacle in the USA is going to get a lot worse before it gets better, as more states that are walking the renewable energy road are warning of rolling blackouts this summer! And don't be fooled by the meatballs saying we should have moved to renewables years ago... No, we should have invested that money we wasted on unworkable notions in pursuit of greater efficiency and better mining and drilling techniques.
