Dear Tigereye,
This is another rule that lacks clarity. What about Clarks Creek FFO section? The entirety of the section is on SGL 211. I have a ginormous head, but it ain't 250 square inches. Will I need to wear a tarp to fish?
I'm being sarcastic, mostly because Clarks isn't worth the 20-minute drive from home, but it would be nice to know what exactly is required to meet the rule? If a hat works, it should be clearly stated in the rule!
To further compound the issue, there are many streams in State Forests where hunting is allowed. It appears they haven't even been considered. If I don't wear a hat in Bald Eagle State Forest and get shot dead, is it my fault? Twenty years ago, I never gave a thought to fishing on State owned property during hunting season. Now, it may be a matter of life or death.
Regards,
Tim Murphy 🙂
Edited to add: I'm not busting on you for calling attention to the rule. I'd just like the rule to be clearly defined and applied to ALL State-owned property where hunting and fishing and any outdoor recreation is allowed. That really isn't that big of an ask.
