Mark Nale: Here’s my idea of a perfect Pennsylvania Game and/or Fish & Boat Commissioner

A bill before the Pennsylvania House of Representatives would give license buyers in specific districts a chance to select commissioners for both the Game Commission and Fish & Boat Commission. Currently, candidates are fielded by the Governor’s Council on Hunting, Fishing and Conservation, nominated by the governor, and then confirmed by the Senate.
License buyers — what should a candidate for commissioner look like? As a long-time purchaser of both hunting and fishing licenses, and also as someone who has attended numerous meetings held by both agencies, I will give you my take on the subject.
