Oregon Coyote Hunting question

Wistrick · 12-27-2010, 05:23 PM

Is it ok to hunt coyote with a Big Game rifle 30/06 when big game season is closed...someone was trying to tell me that just the possession of a big game rifle when the season was closed I could be sited because it shows intent to break the law....

Anybody

I'd contact your local Fish and Game people and ask. Go 'in person'.
That way if your 'in the field' and, are stopped, you can expalin that you stopped at the office and talked to 'Officer (fill in the blank) on this day at this time and the information given was this(fill in the blank).
Then the questioning officer can contact the officer you talked to and know your not coming up with a 'story'.
Even if your cited, you can tell the judge the same story and, bring in the officer to corroborate your story.
