The outgoing USFWS director dropped this turd in the punch bowl the other day.

He's right about one thing, lead shot is harmful to grouse when they are shot with it. I have noticed a number of lakes in ferry county ban lead sinkers ( ferry ,swan, and a few others ). At least that's what the signs dictate, trouble is many anglers I see fishing can't read .

What's the point?

This Order is effective immediately. It remains in effect until we incorporate it into the Fish and Wildlife Service Manual, or until we amend, supersede, or revoke it, whichever comes first. If we do not amend, supersede, or revoke it, the provisions of this Order will terminate on July 31, 2018.

Lead in or over water, a good idea.
Lead over land, like a pee hole in a snow bank.
