i would love to take HIS place. you wouldn't hear no complaints from meHere in Alaska, our seasons are about over, minus 14 this morning, first cooler weather. We got one moose and couple caribou; but we also have a winter caribou season that goes from Nov until end of March. Last year, we did better, 3 moose and bunch of caribou. I had an old friend up for 6 weeks this season; all he wanted to do was complain about no Shopping Malls or McDonalds and sit around and watch tv. Didn't like our single lane mnt roads without guard rails, didn't like my 4 wheeler trail too rough, something scared him about the Yukon, just on and on, man what a hunting season. I'll never do that one again, ha.
A little more snow, and I'll pull the tarps off snowmachines and look for some wolf tracks.
Our blk bear go into hibernation before snow hits, but are real active the month prior. I have seen people have success baiting in in the fall; usually with something the bear seasonally eat, like fish, they know the stink.just getting warmed up, went out this weekend here in the cascades. Found a couple bears (or at least where they'd been!), missed one by a matter of minutes, crossed the old road I as walking in front of me probably less than 5 minutes judging from the fresh prints (dumping buckets of snow saturday).
Wishing you luck.......Where are you headed?Wish me luck.
I'm headed out to illegal immigrant country tomorrow with a mule deer tag and a magnum rifle.
Nice hog, did you take it in the Lompoc area? I've hunted Hunter Liggett for hog, but have yet to see anything.My hunting partner and I are both tagged out on deer (2 ea.) with my first one killed using a bow and the second with the Omega at 175 yards. Now we're in hog mode. I got a decent boar with my #1 that gutted out at 122 lbs. and last week my hunting partner got one that gutted out at 202 lbs. with 3 1/2" cutters (see picture). We're set for meat for the winter now.....
