Hey looks great! Congrats!

I saw a couple out today when I was scouting for coyote/deer hunting areas and wish I had brought my shotgun with me.

Where is this Hancock place that you speak of? I am new to the area (Graham) and have heard of that place you are talking about, but can't seem to find it on a map.

If I may ask are you using lead or steel shot? I could have sworn  saw on the Wdfw website that non-toxic is required as of last year and I just wanted to make sure. Don't need a fine!

Anyways, good work with the bird, now to get more of em!

The passes go on sale in December and usually sell out pretty quick. Acess is between Orting and Kapowsin. I was using steel shot (left overs from duck season).
