2018-2019 federal duck stamps on sale Friday, June 29

MEMPHIS, Tennessee –  The new 2018-2019 federal duck stamp goes on sale Friday, June 29. The stamps, which cost $25, are valid from July 1 through June 30, 2019. Purchased by millions of waterfowl hunters, wildlife enthusiasts and collectors every year, duck stamps help raise money to purchase and protect wetlands for ducks, geese and other wildlife species.
“Duck stamps are one of the traditional ways hunters and others invest in wetland and waterfowl conservation,” said DU CEO Dale Hall. “We encourage everyone, whether they hunt waterfowl or not, to buy one or more duck stamps to help conserve our precious wetland resources. The federal duck stamp is a powerful tool for conservation in the United States. Every year the program raises more than $38 million used to purchase and protect wetlands in the National Wildlife Refuge System. These habitats benefit waterfowl and numerous other species of wildlife. It's an incredibly successful program we should support and be proud of.”
The artwork for the 2018-2019 stamp was created by Bob Hautman, an artist from Delano, Minnesota. His painting features a pair of mallards. This is Hautman's third federal duck stamp contest win. His art previously appeared on the 1997-1998 and 2001-2002 federal duck stamps.
A recent Ducks Unlimited online film joined the Hautman brothers on a special waterfowling trip to North Dakota. Joe, Jim and Bob Hautman are renowned wildlife artists and perennial winners of the federal duck stamp contest. Watch the film at www.ducks.org/dufilms.
This year’s junior duck stamp features an acrylic painting of an emperor goose, painted by Rayen Kang of John’s Creek, Georgia. More than 3,000 junior duck stamps are sold annually for $5 each to help promote conservation education through art.
The duck stamp, also known as the Migratory Bird Hunting and Conservation Stamp, dates back to 1934. Since then, the program has raised more than $1 billion to help acquire and protect more than 6 million acres of habitat in the National Wildlife Refuge System.
A first day of sale ceremony for the federal and junior duck stamps will be held at 10:30 a.m. Friday, June 29, at Bass Pro Shops, 7000 Arundel Mills Circle, Hanover, Maryland.
Waterfowl hunters age 16 and older are required to purchase and carry a duck stamp while hunting. A duck stamp also provides free admission to national wildlife refuges (NWRs) that are open to the public. Duck stamps are sold at post offices nationwide and at many NWRs and sporting goods stores. Electronic versions of the duck stamp can also be purchased online – visit https://www.fws.gov/birds/news/180607-First-Day-of-Sale-promo.php for more information.

KNIFE RIGHTS NEWSLETTER AND THIS IS GETTING INTERESTING TO PROTECT YOUR KNIFE RIGHTS WHEN TRAVELING

Knife Rights News Slice™ eBlast - June 27, 2018 Help Get the Word Out!    Sign up for our FREE News Slice & eBlast newsletters: Sign up here    Problematic Knife Transport Bill Voted Out of Senate Committee      The Senate Commerce Committee today reported S.1092, the Interstate Transport Act of 2018, out of committee. Sponsored by Senator Mike Enzi (R-WY), S.1092 attempts to protect knife owners traveling interstate with knives. This bill is a weaker and problematic version of Knife Rights' Knife Owners' Protection Act (KOPA). S.1092 would theoretically provide safe harbor to someone traveling with knives where it is lawful for the knives to be possessed at both the points of origin and destination, so long as the knives are secured and inaccessible during the intervening travel.   While the sponsor amended the bill to accommodate a number of very serious problematic issues raised by Knife Rights in the original version of the bill, unfortunately S.1092 would still leave knife owners at peril when they need its protections the most. In those states where they are most at risk, such as New York and New Jersey, for example, it lacks critically important provisions to ensure their protection.   S.1092 does not include a right of action which would provide for persons unlawfully detained for transporting their knives properly secured in compliance with the act to seek financial compensation from a jurisdiction that ignores the intent of Congress to protect these travels. Without a strong right of action, there is no deterrent-biased and rogue jurisdictions would have no incentive to follow the law.   Acting with impunity, without fear of any meaningful recourse from their law-abiding victims, these rogue jurisdictions will further persecute citizens who attempt to defend themselves from illegal, and unjust or misguided enforcement actions. A robust right of action holds jurisdictions financially accountable for the victim's losses if they willfully ignore the law. A strong right of action causes jurisdictions to consider these adverse repercussions before they arrest or prosecute an individual that is protected under the act. The unfortunate reality is that were this bill to become law, it would actually put many knife owners at greater risk of prosecution, financial jeopardy or ruin and loss of civil rights because they would believe themselves protected, when they were actually not. This is particularly the case in states and cities with very restrictive knife laws where they are currently wary of breaking the law. It would provide knife owners an unjustified false sense of security that could trap the unwary. S. 1092 also does not include repeal of the Federal Switchblade Act (FSA). The FSA is a failed law dating from 1958 that adversely impacts interstate trade and shipping of automatic knives.  These knives are legal to own in 45 states, the majority with no or minimal restrictions, 32 allowing everyday carry. Keeping the FSA on the books does nothing but cost jobs, revenue and lessens consumer choice. Knife Rights has been responsible for repealing 16 state bans and restrictions on switchblade knives in the last 8 1/2 years. It is well past time for the FSA to go away. Senator Roger Wicker (R-MS), the second most senior Republican member of the Commerce Committee, offered Knife Rights' KOPA, including its strong right-of-action and FSA repeal, as an amendment during the markup. Although he withdrew the amendment, Senator Wicker stated that he intends to introduce KOPA in the Senate as a stand-alone bill. This bill will be a companion to H.R. 84, Knife Rights' Knife Owners' Protection Act, which was introduced by Congressman Andy Biggs (R-AZ) in the House.   Doug Ritter, Chairman of Knife Rights, noted: "While I am glad that much needed knife issues are getting attention in the Senate, S.1092 is not legislation that will truly protect knife owners.  A bill with a strong right of action and repeal of the Federal Switchblade Act will provide actual and vital protection and relief that knife owners, retailers, and manufacturers need. We have worked with Senator Enzi and others to strengthen the Interstate Transportation Act, but unfortunately, they did not make the changes needed for Knife Rights to support this bill. We are pleased that Senator Wicker will be introducing a Senate companion to the Knife Owners' Protection Act, and look forward to working with our many industry supporters in helping him advance that legislation." Knife Rights' record of 29 bills repealing knife bans at the state and local levels in 21 states in the past 8 1/2 years is unrivaled. With your support, Knife Rights is rewriting knife law in America™.

DNR SPORT FISHING REPORT FOR THE WEEK OF 6-27-2018

Manitowoc Co.

• Manitowoc Ramp – Fishing was slow to start the week. However, as the week progressed fishing got better. Rainbows dominated the catch throughout the week. Orange and silver pro-king spoons and orange spoons in general produced rainbows. Some rainbows were caught using dodger fly combos. Most anglers targeting rainbows were in 180-220 feet of water and focusing on the top 60 feet of water. Kings were being caught south of town in 130 feet on dodger flies.
• Manitowoc Harbor & Piers – Fishing is still tough going out on the piers right now. Hopefully with some west winds in the forecast it will allow for some better fishing along the piers. Northern pike are still being caught periodically in the marina. A few yellow perch have also been caught in the harbor but the action is still slow on that.
• Two Rivers Ramp – Rainbow fishing is going strong right now. The catch over the weekend was dominated by rainbows, followed by lake trout, then chinooks. Rainbows were being caught in 180-220 feet of water, but found in the top 60 feet of the water column. The kings that were caught were targeted in 130-180 feet of water. Dodger flies were ideal for the king bite. Green flies produced fish. Depths ranged from 120 feet down on downriggers to 50 feet down.
• Two Rivers Harbor & Piers – Brown trout are being caught once in a while off the pier. For the most part there is very few fish being caught off the piers. The anglers that have been fishing the harbor have been catching carp and few catfish. Yellow Perch have not been caught yet inside the harbor.

Kewaunee Co.

• Kewaunee Ramp – Kewaunee was busy this last weekend due to the salmon derby. The surface temps nearshore were 58F but anglers said it dropped to 48F once you hit the 200ft contour. Large chinook were coming in along with rainbows and a scatter of lake trout. Most parties were catching their limit out over 300-400ft.
• Kewaunee Shore & Piers – Very few anglers were out with no luck so far on salmon.
• Algoma Ramp – The ramp was slow early in the week for salmon and trout but sped up dramatically by the weekend. Heavy fishing pressure and many successful catches were had with rainbows coming in from 26-34 inches. Very few lake trout were coming in with a few kings mixed in with the rainbows. Many folks were going out to between 350-500ft to catch fish. Strong east wind made it hard on occasion for anglers to make it out though most of the weekends weather conditions were favorable.
• Algoma Shoreline and Pier – Bullhead, freshwater drum (sheepshead) and a few small perch are starting to show up at Olson Park. Many of the bites were coming off nightcrawlers. Some mornings there was a strong east wind and whitecaps making fishing difficult if not impossible. No many folks ventured out on the pier, and the few that went out didn’t catch anything.

Door County (Lake Michigan Shore)

• No salmon or trout have been caught near Gills Rock. There are still many bass up shallow in Gills Rock but fishing pressure has been light. Fishing pressure in Rowleys Bay has slowed greatly. Anglers report still seeing bedded bass around the bay but no catches to report. Salmon and trout action is finally picking up out of Baileys Harbor. Most boats are returning with 3-8 fish being a combination of rainbows and kings. The rainbows are being caught on spoons behind dipseys while copper and leadcore has been more productive for kings.

Door County (Green Bay Shore)

• The smallmouth spawn in Door County is starting to slow down with less fish on beds than last week. Fishing remains good. Bass are being caught from beds and cruising around deeper water near bedding areas. Tube jigs, Ned rigs, wacky worms and even jerk baits are all producing fish. Water temps range from the mid 50’s to low 60’s depending on location. Northeast winds have kept a lot of areas from warming up. Bass action off the piers has slowed down but anglers are still catching bass with the occasional perch or rock bass. The number of bedded bass should keep decreasing as we move into post spawn.
