Snowshoe rabbits
« on: January 05, 2015, 08:49:50 PM »
Are there many snowshoe rabbits in the Baker Lake area? If so where would you recommend I go? I've had this dream of hunting them on snowshoes, just seems fun to me.

NW if you want to give it a shot we could arrange a time and get our snowshoes and guns out. Worst case we snowshoe armed?!

Season runs through March 31.

Funny you say that, when we ran beagles all the time, we off and on had 4 to 7 of them, we never had a problem with snowshoes running out, usually we hunted them running from patch to patch and set up accordingly.
