WISH LIST FOR 2012 AND BEYOND
Judging from the e-mails and comments from hunters and anglers, the top priority on their wish list is Sunday hunting in Maine. Did you know that Maine is one of only FIVE states that do not allow Sunday hunting?
LONGER FALL TURKEY SEASON
Second on the list of Maine hunters is a longer shotgun season for wild turkeys. Six days only? are you kidding me? The fall shotgun season is traditionally when biologists push to have the overall population reduced through hunting.

Bristol Custom Game Calls Tip of the Month
When cleaning the surface of friction calls, especially slate, clean only the area on the surface you plan to use - not the entire surface. NEVER clean a friction call by sanding in two directions. Just a few moderate stokes in a horizontal direction away from your body will refresh the calling surface..
