Westside elk talking yet?

[shag]

Are they talking in SW Wash yet?  I've been to damn busy and I haven't talked with any bow hunting buddies in a while.

Thanks

very few of them are. it just depends on where you are at. i've only heard 4 bulls bugle all season down low. up high it seems there talking right at daylight, or if you find a horny bull and get right on top him and cow call. hopefully it will pick up ( at least for me) the last few days.

I heard one at 5:30 this morning as I was getting ready for work.  I wasn't sure at first but I grabbed my bugle and got him to answer back a couple of times before I gave it up.  He is just a litter feller and needs a couple more years under his belt to be shootable.  It is fun to ply with them though.

We had a bull bugle at us a couple of times late Sunday morning. This was a unit on the coast. All it took was a couple of cow calls to get him to respond.

I will let you know after this weekend. I hunted the first 3 days of W side archery. Heard 2 bugles and no cows talking. Pulled out to save vacation time for the end of the season and will be hunting the last 3 days. I am hopefull they are more active.

I only heard one bull during my hunt last weekend. He was sure hot though! Came right in.

Not much goin on in my part of Lewis County.  Ive been seein bulls but they arent singing.  The last two days I have heard a few bugles but other than that they havent been screaming a whole lot.

Just got back yesterday from SW WA. Nothing for me, but several close calls. I just can't seem to break the 100 yard barrier. At any rate I'd say the animals were very vocal in the areas I hunted. At one point I was trying to sweet talk a smaller bull into bow range, but two larger bulls below me were screaming so loud I think the little guy was scared. Exciting to say the least.
