California Game Commission Gone Crazy Over Banning Lead Ammo
December 13, 2007
Phillip at the Hog Blog, also a resident and avid hunter of California, is saying that the California Game Commission has gone too far too quickly in banning certain lead ammunitions within the areas that are to protect the California Condor. He’s also beginning to lean toward the proclamation of others that this could be a back door initiative to ban hunting.
In the long run, I definitely agree that lead needs to phase out of our ammo boxes, but banning it all at once under the false pretense of “saving the condor” is a slap in the face to all hunters. This is wrong, and stinks of an anti-hunting agenda (despite my early resistance to conspiracy theory).
Phillip is calling for action by fellow hunters.
It’s critical here for sportsmen to stand up and speak out. Make our voices heard in Sacramento! Get on the phone, write letters and emails, and don’t let up. Outdoor bloggers need to get on this too, both in CA and outside of the state.
THIS IS A CALL TO ACTION!
Great advice! I too get frustrated with a lack of involvement by fellow hunters and outdoor enthusiasts. Let’s go! Take a proactive position for a change and see how effective it is.

After a little internet searching, reading, and checking up on this stuff I found its a pretty well established product in Canada and hails from Quebec where they have this funny habit of speaking a lot of French. Thus the name, Jig-A-Loo, and the companys claim it derives from a saying they have up north, Ive got it! 

CA Hunters need to speak up. At the very least, send an email, or even better, a letter to the Fish and Game Commission, to the Governor, and to your elected representatives!
Even better, get out to one of the Fish and Game Commission meetings. The calendar is posted on the Fish and Game Commission website at: http://www.fgc.ca.gov
Don’t sit back and let this happen. CA hunters have taken enough of a beating. It’s time to stand up together and put a stop to this foolishness.
