Everyone should send some emails in for suggestions maybe we can finally get rid of the stupid doe days.

We used to have a lot of doe days in area 4, can't remember when they got rid of them but it was a few years ago.

They’re illegal in federal lands I hunt and still see them. Don’t think outlawing them would stop the use.

THIS!! Drugs have been outlawed for decades and folks still use them too. Dumbest shite ever to outlaw something. Just roll with it. Its a dang camera for goodness sake.

They probably want to free up the wardens from having to deal with calls about them being stolen

alot of changes need to be made, take for example the area 5 stateland season is basically 2 1/2 months of gun season with dogs running crazy and then you have Attakapas wma right across a small bayou that is restricted to 2 doe days and 11 bucks only days, so if the restrictions are needed on the WMA why is the area 5 season 2 1/2 months, its the same deer and land,

I've read the regulations front to back, 10 times every year, and still the shite doesn't make a damn bit of sense. I don't trust this state to fix it either or improve things.

Because it takes that long for the dog hunters to run all of the deer out of the WMA !

I prefer the woods to have no cameras but at this point, outlawing them won't do any good. Green jeans aren't going to leave the parking lot to go find them. They'll still only care about tags, licenses, self clearing permits, etc.

I have two cameras that I use in deep areas so I can know if there are deer before I walk that far. However, I know dudes who have 10 cameras scattered in one WMA. Some people get carried away with the surveillance.

We need a shorter gun season. It would help the amount of young bucks make it another year.
