Shoot from the road?
GreginWA:
I think you have to be 100 feet from a main road to discharge a weapon.
Depends on the game warden to be honest. In my hunter safety class, he basically said as long as you were SAFE and high up in the mountains off well traveled roads, he wouldnt write a ticket. NEVER shoot ACROSS a road, at least stand off to the side....
Unless your handicap(WITH special hunting permit) you can never have a loaded rifle or shotgun in vehicle, or even TOUCHING the vehicle (Leaning against, shooting from truck bed, setting on hood - technical but I was told they will get you for it)... Only pistol WITH permit, and discharging from vehicle would be a very BAD idea.

Wrong. There is not set distance in WA. You just need to be off the road
Noiro:
Another thought was spotlighting at night with an electric caller. You can spotlight coyote and bobcat but if a cougar comes in you just pray it goes away? :'(
bobcat:
It depends on the road.
If it's a private road you can shoot, public road, no.
BOWHUNTER45:
Just jump out , jump twice and your good to go ...Hopefully there is no ditch there :chuckle:
