As I read the guidance CPW has put out on use of SWA's, I wonder if the idea of simply buying a fishing license to gain access to all the SWA's really works. In their FAQs on this subject there is an entry that reads:
"Question: If I have a hunting license does it allow me to engage in any activity I wish on a SWA?
Answer: No. All other regulations still apply. It allows you to engage in the outdoor activities authorized for that specific property." (emphasis mine). Many SWA's do not list fishing as an activity authorized on the property.
Chuck Hundertmark, in an earlier post in this thread, suggested: "When questions about policy or intent of the agency arise, the best approach is probably talking to the agency." I think that is an excellent idea, and I'd like to suggest that one or more of our birding organizations (DFO, CFO, Audubon Rockies...) contact CPW to get clarification that they can then disseminate to the birding community.
