He owns a deer breeding, high fence farm and does not want to be subject to the state regulations for deer management or disease control. What an idiot!

They'll sign it, I'm sure. That's too bad.

Yeah and it's a shame that none of the loudest voices on here have nothing to say . I will say it, that's what happens when rich politicians just care about getting richer at everyone's expense. I have a friend that's a deer breeder and has dealt with some of the regulations but is also not to happy about this entitled approach of Pat Curry to further his agenda at the expense of what most of on here have bought and paid for if you hunt or fish in Texas.

TPWD has had some really poor leadership and decisions recently as a result of some woke ideology infiltrated into the organization but I would not think you would abolish them. They need to right the ship not obliterate it

Anybody upset with TPWD policies regarding aquatic vegetation? We all know that grass makes fishing better.

If you read the bill nothing is really going away, just re organized, or re alignment with other existing agencies.

It is not going anywhere, bill sponsored by a deer breeder who doesn’t like the fact that his operation is subjected to TP&W oversight. That tells you his motive for this nonsense right there

I hate when TPWD TAKES IT ON THEMSELVES TO KILL AQUATIC VEGETATION IN OUR LAKES . IT KILLS THE FISHING!!!!! A few people who own the lake lots have the say so over the thousands of fishermen and boaters not to say anything about the money lost to the cities close to the lake who depend on it for their income. It is so bad to the thousands only to server a very few.

Both guntersville and chickamauga have endless miles of mud flats with hydrilla growing on them and both are fabulous fisheries ……. They sprayed the hydrilla and it took years for fishing to recover….is it possible the chemical companies are bribing the decision makers with scholarships,bogus research projects,speaking fees and campaign contributions? Why isn’t our learned fish and game people screaming about the damage cormorants are doing to our fisheries.
