Toutle bull tag seen 4 bulls. got in shooting range of 3. Only 1 was decent size. less than 15 elk total and many miles hiking and biking. not a good start 

Had nearly the same experience. Saw only 5 bulls and 10 cows in two weeks. Only heard of one  bull killed.

There in the unit for sure. just little deeper and harder to find with all the tags last couple years.

I just went straight up and over the hills away from the river until I felt that I was far enough, then I went a little further. But I must have lucked out with text book scenarios. Right place, right time.

Yet the DFW call the Toutle a quality tag and just keep serving up all those tags.  I will be shocked if the rumors aren't true and both these units aren't OTC within 2 or 3 years.

I hope there are still a couple decent bulls in there.  Don't need anything huge...but you know the bigger the better.  But my son has an elk rifle tag in the Toutle starting Nov. 2

Most of the guys I ran in to in the western part of the Margret had seen few to no elk at all. Regular season units would normally be much better than that. With the way it's "managed", maybe it should be OTC  :dunno: I'd keep the monument part select tag though for sure. My  :twocents:

With over 600 tags not counting any other units a year in the toutle the elk are depleating. 10 years ago my husband and I were drawen great bulls lots of them. Back then there were only 150 tags only 50 archery tags. I think the state is tryingyo get rid of the rlk population in the low it' margret, and toutle

Here's my margret bull. One of the smaller we seen but hard to pass at 10yards. I missed a 6x6 about 310class. Got onto a couple others in the mid to upper 200's. All in all it was a fun hunt. We seen around 30 bulls during the hunt, half being 5x6 or bigger....I definitely see this hunt being a general tag though.

If they made magaret a general season hunt, that place would be crazy crowded! Might not be the biggest bulls in there, but theres TONS of them. I wish I knew a general season area with that many bulls in it, I would hunt there in a heartbeat. Although, I'm sure hoof rot is taking its toll >:(
