I don't know if any of them were shooters....there was a really nice ram with a blue ear tag that I was unable to get a pic of...he was definitely a shooter...hopefully his genetics are still around..the pic was taken in July...I don't know if the big Rams are in groups or not at that time.

Definitely plan on putting some time in the boat but beware the winds will blow and white caps will follow.

The further one goes into the wilderness, the greater the attraction of its lonely freedom.

Like November to March on the Sound?  Without a swell from the Straits....   :o  Although I hear there can be a pretty good swell there as well.

I sent you an email through the site. 
As long as we have the habitat, we can argue forever about who gets to kill what and when.  No habitat = no game.

Launch at 25 mile run across the lake and look at the sheep from a boat. Took a hunter about 4 or 5 years ago to look at sheep the day before his tag on the water. COLD but sunny. Have fun Good Luck

Nice draw Loki.  :tup: I have no desire to climb the mountain looking for sheep, but I could boat sit down on the beach and have coffee ready when you get back.  :chuckle:

I'm still planning on the elk hunt with you, I hear you need backup for that stick you use...   :chuckle:  plus, there's a lot more meat on an elk.

That's good to hear,  :tup: I was looking forward to having someone who was not afraid of a few bushes to hunt with again!

Congrats again on the draw!!

If genuine, that is a great offer.  A boat operator/handler is REALLY nice for a Manson sheep hunt.
