We have seen violations of the hunting and fishing rules. Last winter they were common at Rufus Woods Reservoir, and ethical sportsmen were appalled at what was taking place. Last week I saw a gill net that was taken from Banks Lake, full of whitefish and walleye! What's an angler to do? That's what the Eyes in the Woods or Crime Observation and Reporting Training (C.O. R. T.) is all about. It is a one-time, two-hour training course that is conducted by a WDFW Enforcement Officer. Those who take the training will learn how to spot violations, document the details and report the information-while avoiding conflict at all costs. The Wenatchee Sportsmen's Association will be hosting a C.O.R.T. training session on Wednesday, June 18th beginning at 7 p.m. The training will take place at the Steelworkers Union Hall, 180 Rock Island Road, East Wenatchee. There is no charge for the course and everyone who is concerned about the welfare of our fish and wildlife is welcome to participate. To learn more about the C.O.R.T. training session, or if you have any questions, call Ron Poppe in Wenatchee at 662-3957.
