Sinlehekin GMU 215 Late Whitetail
« on: October 26, 2014, 07:46:07 PM »
First Time with the GMU 215 Late Whitetail tag, Nov 1 - 20.   I have scouted the wildlife area and some of the other public land at higher elevations.
Anyone hunted this before?  Any suggestions?

There are some good game trails with nice choke points in different spots.  Do not be afraid to walk right up to the canyon walls as there are little pockets that can not be seen from the road.

I'd try to get permission on some of the private land

Ahhh.......the famous 215 whitey thread. Every year there are those in the know of quality bucks, yet we never see any harvest pics of quality deer...... :rolleyes:

Go to Lemansky rd east of Lemansky lake and west of north pine creek road. There is a sliver of state land that comes to the road that has a logging road to access it. It used to be marked 4-5 years ago with a state sign.

The walk in logging road goes along the east side of Aeneas mountain side hilling go up in elevation gradually heading north. I know there are big whitetails in there just haven't seen them, the low lands to the east are all alfalfa fields that are private that have little feeder draws from the road to them.

Good luck! :tup:

PS once your on the road walking in its all state land pretty much unles you hike east down to the fields or go west along ways to the road that goes to the Lemesky lookout, and the guy who owns the house past the county road Is grumpy.  :chuckle:

Ok by popular demand Im posting pictures of the spot to hike in from.

See the rectangular spot on the terrain picture the state land is above that to the left in the green area of trees, it beyond a cattle fence with a gate that is made of barb wire and wood posts. Used to have state DNR signs posted on fence.  :tup:

My 2014 modern whitetail harvest picture.  Bucks in this area do exist, and this one was taken on state land.  I definitely found quality meat upon butchering this deer.

We found that same spot 20 yrs ago when we used to archery hunt up there. It's good. I would recommend not overlooking some of the cattail thickets and the dense areas along the creek too. We've seen some BIG bucks in those areas!
