As a long time hunter ,fisherman,trapper and outdoor enthusiast i have seen the population increase of cormorants ,we have never had a population of these birds in this area in the past as they are now.
I totally commend the ministry to establish such a season as this to reduce the over run pooulation of these predators of our fish resourses
If they would only see though the red tape they face and open a season on the coyote population that has grown in areas also alowing a harvest to reduce the numbers before a serious attavck on children happens and then its too late
I have seen large size dogs ripped apart and eaten by packs ,and even a pack of 11 killing a redfox on one attached deck at 630 am showing no signs of human fear

But to start with cormorants they have a positive vote which i support
