"Deer make people stupid." - P. Durkin. 😂 (I'm sure I will use that in the future.) A huge change in deer hunting that I don't think gets enough weight is one that you alluded to early in the discussion, hunter patterns. If you have viable habitat on your land and the hunters sit in box blinds all day you are at the mercy of natural movement. So, even in the best case scenario if natural, and weather, patterns have deer hunkered down, you won't see them. Growing up hunting (starting in 1990 in southern WI), especially in cold weather, hunters were moving deer around by 9am. From single hunter drives to all out group drives with the neighbors, the deer were rarely comfortable during daylight hours. Now, all I see is box blinds on neighboring properties and no deer moving. Some of the availability of deer hunting information in recent years has also shown me how poor many deer hunters are at the actual pursuit of deer. Historical stands in traditional deer killing spots don't produce forever. Most hunters would rather stay in the traditional spot than do the hard work of figuring out where the deer really are. Most hunters would rather do what is quick and easy than that which is time consuming and difficult. Woodsmanship falls in the latter category. I learned more in a couple years of watching the Hunting Public than I had in the 3 decades of deer hunting before that. Maybe all our technology is working against us now. We can see all the deer on the property that we rarely, or never, see during hunting hours. In the past we had tracks and trails, maybe a few rubs and scrapes. Now we know when they came through, how many, and how big they were. Too much information can be a detriment in that situation.

I was wondering if you happen to know if you can walleye fish right now (before May 4th) in the spot you fished last year from the video posted April 17th. I read the regs and called DNR but still can’t seem to figure it out. Appreciate any insight!

Online or call in registration numbers? Any idea how many don't get registered? Many I think. And the Texas deer czar. This ain't Texas. Not even close

Probably the same amount of deer don't get registered as in the day when we had to drive our harvested deer to a registration station. Law breakers will always break the law. In person registration or online. And yea....that's probably why we are where we are today because we hired some guy in Texas to help us with our deer heard.

Manage wolves in northern zones to help increase deer populations. Cut all the extended and extra seasons, just unnecessary. Limit crossbow to those in need (youth, elderly, injured). Or at a minimum a specific crossbow season needs to be implemented that is shorter than vertical archery season. Limit nonresident tags. Entertain the idea of making WI a one-buck state to try and help increase age structure of bucks. Probably wouldn’t solve everything but those would at least help.
