I hate the shed season some states have in place. we are free to look here whenever, used to be a zone that had a restriction but they couldn't enforce it if wildlife wasn't actually present where one was looking. I talked to a fish cop about it and he told me that if you looking for sheds is disturbing the wildlife that are wintering then that's enough for a ticket, but if no wildlife is being disturb feel free to look all you want, its your right! we had a season for it in one zone just due to the fact of the monster bulls that drop sheds and the amount of people lined up looking, hell, they even have cops out there preventing fights. ha, silly.
