Those darn crooks anyway

Thank you to those who have expressed opinions about land access in this area. I've learned from both perspectives.

[HUNTINCOUPLE]

The main thing i have taken from this thread is to bring all my good friends near the Blue Mtns SEA FOOD! I will start now and maybe 20-30 yrs from now i will have a tag to hunt.

Skywalker...
Maybe I missed it somewhere. Did you draw a 1010 permit? 

[WaHeadhunter]

All I stated was land access can be challenging; especially when applying for Dayton 162. Nobody can argue that. It is stated in the regulations. Further; I went on to explain MY EXPREIRENCE. Nothing wrong with that.

Or Wilber Eaton (farmer) who is a known crook with the game department

So how does your statement about Eaton serve any purpose? When. its. not. true?

Isn't skywalker the guys who's all fired about about not getting access in another thread? Maybe there's a pattern?

[jackelope]

Just a quick note. Keep the personal insults off the forum or those who keep it up will end up off the forum, along with said insults.

There is. It seems there's a little bitterness from him  regarding private land access in the Blues.

[270Flat]

I live the Blues. I cannot attain private access, nor do I put in for those areas with little or no public access. I have no problem fixing fences, hauling wood, doing whatever it would takes. But it is not my time. Hopefully some day I will be able to hunt said private lands. Until then I will put my time in and hope for the best.

A pattern may be indicative of truthful information as well. Just sayin'.

Marengo unit is what it was called, gmu 163 and 162 out side the Nat forest.
I will say this Skywalker, if you had come on and explained your experience like you just did from the get go you would not have gotten some of the reactions you got. The fact that you just belted out names with derogatory statements is gonna draw fire. 

[Woodchuck]

Just put in for the Dayton unit hunt. Nobody can stop you from going in there. There are guys pulling that permit with 2 and 3 points every year.
Hang in there man.

These landowners deal with a HUGE amount of people asking to hunt. The Quality permit guys for all weapons and 2 different hunt choices, the antlerless permit guys for a few different hunt choices, the general elk guys(archery and modern), the general deer guys, all the deer permit guys.

Imagine the number of people that ask each year. If I were the landowner, I would probably have guard dogs at the door and not own a telephone.

I’m not sure it “would be nice”.

[Bob33]

I think the point is that someone made an effort to contact a landowner well in advance of hunting season, and allegedly got permission. When the hunting season arrived, the parameters changed. I for one appreciate getting a heads up about situations like that.

Mr. Eaton gave us permission to hunt his land in 2011 for elk, Nice guy.
