Sounds like Texas may be considering it.

"states considering management measures, such as Texas and Oregon, have contacted South Carolina DNR officials for details surrounding their recent—and for hunters, very successful—season

Oh my could I have some fun!

Pond by my mom's house, took me for ever to figure out why a lot the bass we caught had holes in the back of their tail. They chase them underwater and hook them with their fish hook bills..



Nasty arse birds, they look like aliens. What do you do with them when you shoot them? You can't just leave them in the lakes dead, that would be more nasty.

Would be nice to shoot a few of those ugly birds.

Good! I'm tired of those arrogant bastads flyin' right by the spread like they own the place.

Im in the blind. Let me know when they approve it.

On private waters you can get a permit to shoot them

I have a permit for the ranch and designate each hunter as my agent. Paperwork involved but we eliminate many of them. They are destroying my bass fishery.

Water turkey season!...no limit and no closed season as far as I'm concerned!

This!

You had better have a VG relationship with your GW if you don't have a permit.

Yep, been that way for several years. The first SC public hunt was done much the same way. It was still by Depredation Order and for a specific body of water. Hunters had to attend a training session and sign a volunteer forum to become an agent of the SC Department of Natural Resources to be able to participate. Like a permit for private water here, the birds had to be recorded and disposed of. You can't even legally mount one. IMHO, the best approach to get a pubic permit season here would be to get the Texas Bass Fishing Lobby on board to put pressure on TPWD. Then we might just have a chance for a future season on some of the larger public lakes.

Kill them all.

yep

Water turkey tags...

Hopefully they'd let us shoot em with lead... Or a center fire rifle, or small explosives.

watch we will start killing them off and end up they have been keeping a bloodthirsty water monster at bay by eating their babys the whole time...

that sounds like a great theme to a B movie.


we can get a bunch of washed up actors to star in it

Clint eastwood would be my first pick of the litter.... with that horrible show he put out not to long ago it couldn't go anywere but up... what was that show called... It was the one were he was an old man living in the Ghetto and had war flashbacks... the acting was worse than any b movie i ever seen... and every one claimed to like it because it was clint eastwood... no it sucked

New i had a picture of a big one that got killed... very possible it was a bald eagle also but more likely water turkey

It would be better if you could 5 bucks for their feet like Louisiana rats

This has been more political than approving the keystone pipeline project for heavens sake

We need al gore on board
