There's a major problem in my opinion when the government hands out more tags then the entire zone has moose!
The spots in which you've hunted this year where you require an Argo to access, are hunted hard come the winter roads which is another problem that all the expanding oilfield and logging has opened up.
I feel your pain and hate what this zone is become.....

Scottie, in your opinion is there anything we as sportsmen and sportswomen can do about it, or are we going down the same dismal road as Quebec, Ontario and Manitoba have without making an effort to prevent it? Or is too late?
Some people have posted here that I do not understand the tag to animal ratio, I believe that they don't know what they are talking about,
REALLY!
