Rabbit Hunting on the West Side
« on: January 02, 2009, 01:04:56 AM »
I was wondering if anyone had any ideas on where to run the dog on rabbits around the Lacey area?  Are there any good rabbits in the Capitol Forest area?, and do they run up high or stay down in the lower areas?

Go find a brushy clearcut in capitol forest and you'll get some rabbits going.

There's no place in Capital Forest with rabbits.  :rolleyes: ;)

Seriously now, CF has a lot of hare up there, good running too.  Let us know how you do, maybe I'll run into you up there sometime.
