Preserve hunting opportunity in New Jersey: Vote NO on Assembly Bill 3732

[EasyDNNnewsLocalizedText:Author]: New Jersey BHA
The New Jersey Chapter of Backcountry Hunters & Anglers is in staunch opposition to Assembly Bill 3732, proposed by Assemblywoman Shama A. Haider.

Such rules would preclude hunters from pursing game on many properties and would be detrimental to the state’s ability to ...

A $40 Million Win for Public Access in Maine

[EasyDNNnewsLocalizedText:Author]: John Simoneau

  By John Simoneau   A few years ago I was hosting friends for whitetail hunting camp, and we were looking for a new place to explore. Studying the state websites and mapping apps we decide to visit the 6,000-acre Kennebec Highlands Public Reserve. I mapped out a loop with drainages, saddles, wetlands and fading skid trails. While climbing to the first saddle I thought I heard an occasional duck call. Finding the deer sign I was looking for I settled in to sit. I could hear the sound of ...

BHA Podcast & Blast, Ep. 134: Snake River Dams

[EasyDNNnewsLocalizedText:Author]: Travis Bradford
  We are teetering on the brink of what could be the greatest conservation success story of the past 50 years. The removal of four outdated and failing dams on the lower Snake River will restore the passage of millions of salmon and steelhead upstream into 5500 square miles of the most intact, coldwater spawning and rearing habitat in North America (almost all of it public land). If the dams are left in place, these same salmon and steelhead face inevitable extinction. It is a simple ...
