  Lots of public land around.  Not familiar with the south end though.  Good luck this year!

Welcome to Hunt WA. 

You said, "everywhere around here is either private property or closed to the public, when i went down to south east of seattle area (south east of enumclaw)."

Where is here/home?   Lots of helpful folks on here, could help in giving some directions by knowing where you are based out of, how far you are willing to travel, that type of info.

Here s another option.  I have not tried these yet, but have read some good reviews about them and this fellow (member on here - Bearpaw), and am considering giving them a go myself.

Depending on where in south Washington you are located Weyco land may be an option for you.
