Elk Hunting / Re: Found after 2 days, meat worth anything?
« Last post by Martinhunter on Today at 02:36:28 AM »
Make a cut in the thickest parts one of the hind quarters and do a sniff test.. That sucks man, hope your able to salvage it. Happened to me on a buck about 5 years ago, I decided to track it first thing the following morning and when I found him, for some reason the meat was rotten. It was in November but it was also super muggy out. Lesson learned..

Deer Hunting / Re: 4 days left
« Last post by dreadi on Yesterday at 11:05:45 PM »
Today was a good day to be out, every animal was up and moving around noon today once the rain let up.

I knew it would be after the storm but I chose to hang out with my 22mo old granddaughter... I hunt so much I take two days to hang out when the wife watches her. I let a few in Oregon go and saw a few whitetail a couple weeks ago. I have so much meat in the freezers I'm not pressing just hunting for the fun
Seen some elk?

Seen one in Cowichie that was similar... Was a small 3 point 15+ years ago... Blended in with the snow great and couldn't get a shot after I saw he was legal...

Yep, seen a few like that before. Used to be few area around that would have them with that much white fairly regularly. Don't see them near as m7ch as I used to.

Trail Cameras / Re: Idaho on the verge of outlawing
« Last post by idaho guy on Yesterday at 08:22:23 PM »
That's bs.
I know guys who literally sit on the couch and wait until the big bear hits their bait and then go in to kill it.
It's straight up lazy, cheating, and not hunting in their case.

I've been running cellular trail cameras since 2014.  I got my first one for hunting hogs in Virginia.  My bait was 54 miles away.  That camera paid for itself in three months in saved gas.  I have NEVER gotten a photo and run out and killed an animal.  Actually my cameras are set up to only transmit twice a day.  Saves on battery.  BUT even if they transmitted right away.  It is dang near impossible get your so called lazy ass up off the couch and go and kill something on your trail camera.  No disrespect meant, but every time I see someone say this, I know they've never actually used one.  Guys that don't have or use cellular cameras sit around and fret that guys that do use them have some amazing advantage.  Honestly is BS.
   




I know a guy who had a bear bait close enough that he did get a picture and ran up there and shot the bear 😂 Its not practical for most hunters to do that. I have also used the cell cams on our baits where we have service and its a huge time and gas saver. Same is true for whitetails. With that said I am not against outlawing them. At some point you have to say enough is enough with technology. I remember running baits without even a trail cam and I am sure you do too. We had to learn a lot of things to determine the bear size, timing etc. in short, we had to work harder but we developed better woodsmanship. I think they should put some limits on technology even though it does make my life easier. I never thought hunting should be easy and the more trchnology we add I think we take something away from hunting.

Advocacy, Agencies, Access / Re: Is it a conflict of interest
« Last post by Tinmaniac on Yesterday at 08:09:21 PM »
The problem is all the poaching goes on after dark, especially in big timber company‘s property that is gated the night shift comes in after everybody leaves during the day they hunt all night long with spotlights. There’s no law-enforcement until the daytime when they’re really only concerned about trespass violations.
Sorry but saying wardens don't work nights on timberland is just factually false.

In fact, many of these areas preclude night time use, which would be punishable as a trespass charge.

There are certain groups where spotlighting isn't illegal or at least definitely not enforceable by WDFW.Its poaching in my book .
