If you read the latest Game Status & Trends Report, it says the Teanaway and other GMU's to the south have seen a reduction in the deer population of up to 50%, due to "hair loss disease." Hopefully there are still some good bucks in there, and I'm sure there are, but I'm going to hunt elsewhere until I hear the deer numbers are back up. |

Yup, thats affirmitive. Regardless of the damn "hair loss" and what the WDFW claims is out there, there are good bucks there year after year....we've taken some nice bucks out of that unit. I wouldn't ever give that area up. |

I have other reasons for not hunting the Teanaway this year, besides the reported lack of deer...I've got a week long elk hunt planned in both Washington and Oregon......therefore, I have no time to hunt mule deer in Washington. If I hunt deer it will be blacktails close to home. But if I can tell myself the Teanaway is not worth hunting because there's no deer, then it makes me feel a whole lot better. ;) Honestly though if I had the time to hunt the entire mule deer season I probably WOULD go somewhere other than the Teanaway, probably somewhere up in Chelan or Okanogan is where I'd be headed. Teanaway's nice because it's close, but that's also why it's overrun with hunters. Last year on opening day there was a guy behind just about every tree. :o :bash: |

cougeyes, we'll have to share a cup of coffee during the general season... I am up there pretty much the entire season.... Gonna do the mountain bike thing this year.. Got tired of this guy year after year dragging nicebucks out on his bike.... Lotta nice area up there even if there are crowds around.. The majority never get a couple hundred yards off the road.. |
