Walton League Seeks Short Maryland Hunting Season
The Isaak Walton League proposes a two week shortened Maryland hunting season to include squirrels in the regular period, lower bag limits, and concurrent seasons for rabbit and quail due to game scarcity. Harvey Musselman, president of the Washington County Isaak Walton Chapter, announced broad support across chapters. Some sportsmen accuse Western Maryland counties of underpayment from licenses while Eastern Shore counties gain more. The league distances itself from efforts to abolish the State Game Commission.
