Hello Guys, I think that all of us who are members of the OFAH should submit a "thank you" note to the OFAH staff for all of their effort over the years to achieve this. I just sent mine in. Jerome PS Hello OCLP ... come on ... be creative!

Hello Guys, I just received the "Hunt Annual" issue the other day but I never received the "Summer" issue that normally comes in June so I called the Delta Waterfowl office and was told that the "Summer" issue was cancelled due to several COVID-19 issues. Just thought that I would let you know...

Hello Guys, I just heard from Delta Waterfowl that Alberta has been granted a Sandhill Crane season by the CWS that will start this fall ... so maybe we will get one in 2021 ... if we "push" for one. Jerome

Hello Guys, Just a thought ... a suggestion ... we could go to an all "self serve" system in which you drive in, select a blind, submit your registration card with payment, hunt for the day and then return to check out later in the day. I had suggested this as an option years ago but it was...

Hello Guys, I have enclosed a letter that I sent by e-mail to Jack Hughes at the CWS earlier this week with copies to other individuals at the CWS, Delta Waterfowl and the MNRF as well as Toby Barrett (MPP, Haldimand-Norfolk). I understand that the OFAH now supports delisting the Mute Swan from...

Hello No Class, I would suggest that you talk to Clint at Mud Buddy in Utah ... he was very accommodating and fair with me .... would not change my decision. Jerome

798 Highway 59 Port Rowan, Ontario N0E 1M0 February 24, 2020 Dear Waterfowlers: I am writing to advise you that no provisions for a limited (tag only) Tundra Swan season were included in the proposed changes to the Migratory Game Bird Regulations as a result of the review process that...

Dear Waterfowlers: A waterfowl management professional told me years ago that anything that benefits one or two waterfowl species will directly or indirectly benefit other waterfowl species and for that reason alone (if for no other reason) he would support a proposal that I had made to the...

Hello Guys, This morning the Inner Bay was basically free of ice for the most part except for along the shoreline. The boat launch at the Big Creek bridge and Big Creek were completely free of ice this morning. Although the Port Rowan harbour still had some loose ice remaining it certainy...

Hello Big Talk, Well said ... thank you. Jerome
