Would like to hear your opinions on the sunrise/sunset tables. My question is if FWP has the sunrise/sunset tables calculated before any season starts and this is what a warden will go by. How many of you use a weather app or gps for sunrise/sunset. In most cases there is a five to ten minute difference between the regulations sunrise/sunset tables depending on the time of year.
The reson this came up is my sons wife shot a deer and someone turned her in for shooting after legal light. If it had not been for taking a picture wich created a time stamp of the time of day she would have got fined and the deer confiscated. That night there was a six minute difference between the regulation and the gps. The gps said 4:50 was sunset and the regs was 4:44. I guess better safe than sorry.
