Hunting Washington Forum

My brother in law is in charge of over 17,000 acres of public hunting land above Priest Lake. It must be good due to the number of big bulls that he and the family has pulled out of there.

What does "In charge of 17,000 acres public land" mean exactly.  Just curious.

First, congratulations!
I also find it childish when members are so protective of sharing GMUs for tags that thousands of people apply, are statistically impossible to draw, and they will likely never draw again. It makes the story (and this forum) a lot less interesting.

Rated 90 hp 4 stroke.  No I wouldn't go 90 on one.  The 70 is perfect.  I wish when I bought mine I would have went with the 9.9 High Thrust electric start power tilt.  I wound up putting electric start and charging system on mine.  I have 2 batteries and use Scotty electric downriggers.  Top speed per GPS I've had mine up to is 37 mph.   I went with the 160 sportsman and a roller trailer because I do a lot of beach launching at Freshwater Bay.   I've been in some rough water and never felt like I was in danger.  The only thing I dislike about my boat is it rides rough in choppy water.  I cut a stall mat to fit the front open bow area.  I bolted a small aluminum box to that stall mat and I keep 3 extra 15 lb downrigger balls and a 23 lb pyramid anchor up front and that really helps smooth out the ride.
