Margaret Antlerless elk tag
« on: June 12, 2014, 01:43:06 PM »
Drew tag for Nov 18 to 26 in the Margaret.   Anybody have any suggestions regarding this hunt/area.
This is what I call a target rich environment.

Tell everyone on your camp to start saving for the weyco permit.........

Then stop at the gas station in toutle and buy the st helens tree farm map. (you can also get some delicious fried chicken there) There is a road that heads north off the highway up towards some private houses. The first part of this road is private but you can access the upper part by going in through either of the gates east or west of that road and come in through the top. Should be an easy tag to fill so have fun with it!!!  :tup:

I believe he is talking about the private access point being the 2500 line which is in fact in the margerate unit. Can't access that line from that entrance but his post shows where to look

Thanks for all the info.  Looking forward to hunting this year.

When I had the tag I saw most of my elk close to the river. Good luck!

These were the results from last year's Antlerless Hunts:

Modern- 62%
Archery- 13.5%
Muzz- 18.5%
Dis.- 20%
Total Overall = 38%

Margaret is not like it used to be, with elk around every corner. But you will likely need to actually HUNT if you want to be successful.

It may not be what it used to be as far as drive around and shoot one out the window, it's all thirty year old timber not clear cuts and reprod like the good old days. There are still a ton of elk in there you just have to get out and get after them.

I had the tag year before last and was on elk every day. But after the first day the Elk get wise will not stick around to get shot at. I also took a couple weekends to scout and a few days before the opener. So freebie? No, Heck of a good chance? Yes

I drew the archery antlerless tag, and the toutle tag a few years back.  Can't wait!
