As long as we have the habitat, we can argue forever about who gets to kill what and when.  No habitat = no game.

Saw on another thread that they're in the Chiwawa...that's as far west as I've heard.  I spend a lot of time there and have a cam up, but haven't seen any whities there myself.

Slight tangent...last week I saw a large framed photo of a whitie doe titled "Lopez Deer" in an art gallery on Lopez Island.  They wanted a bunch of $$ for it.  Pretty sure that pic wasn't from Lopez!

I hunt an island very close to Lopez, Shaw Island, and all we have is blacktails.

I have fished that area for thirty years, I know every inch of it well.  But I haven't spent much time there in the last dozen years or so.  If you're serious about this and not pulling my leg, I'll consider posting a trail cam in there...would love to see your pics....

I have not been able to find mine as of yet.  I have moved probably 6 times since taking them so who knows where they are.

I saw a couple does along the Cowlitz just below the barrier dam a couple years ago. I called F&G and they told me flat out that I was wrong, they were blacktail. :dunno: I laughed and said "okay" guess I don't know the difference. They should take a look in my house :chuckle:

I saw a whitetail doe just outside of Everett this morning on my way to work.  Probably a Columbia whitetail, I don’t know how you tell the difference.

I think the best way to tell is by taste... :tung: :cue:

I have seen a couple of does and one small buck about ten miles east of Othello. I predict they will fallow the Columbia river upwards.
