I spend a lot of time fishing the rivers and lakes of WV. I must say, in all my travels, the WV DNR deserves some respect. By far they are the most willing DNR to listen and work with anglers that I have ever seen. PA could learn a lot from them.

I've seen these signs several places in WV. May I ask where you took this picture at? The WV DNR does try to do a very good job with our musky population here in the state. I think we are getting better all the time.

Kudos, also, to the DNR's willingness to work with our WV Chapter of Muskies, Inc. (and to the chpater for the wonderful working relationship they have developed with DNR!). A rep from the agency attends our annual dinner and gives an update, takes questions. One project was for MI members to keep a logbook of catches / releases; it was suggested at the meeting that the logbook template be available on the agency's website and the DNR rep said he'd have that done within a couple of weeks. The latest project is to help DNR establish protected areas of acquatic vegetation at certain targeted areas.

All in all, a fine management program in West Virginia (ps - there are no muskies in the state, however - go fish Kentucky!). m

WOW that is amazing! I actually found a sign very similar here in WI....see attachment!

Sorry this was too easy....I love this state, but the old mentality of some of its residence (and NOT necessarily the DNR)....

Well, as a self proclaimed technical expert, I have no idea. when I post, click on "browse", find file, open, then hit attach, and return to thread. Uh, you should probably ask someone else.
