Any updates? How did you guys do?

We had a lot of close encounters and a few missed opportunities.  But unfortunately we didn't come home with anything. We'll be back in December to see if we can make something happen.

Sounds like a good time!

  I seen the big boy in the private field. Crazy mass on that bull.

Heard a tribal member and I was sent a pic of it - just shot a 9x7 in the sack unit with a rifle where you guys have archery tags.

[Practical Approach]

I thought it was common knowledge that tags are shared between the state and the tribes in the Nooksack Unit?  Only difference is that the state puts restrictions on weapon type.  I think it is pretty exciting that the state and the tribes have managed the herd so that there are 9x7 bulls running around on the landscape.  There is no shortage of quality bulls in that herd.

Tribes Sharing the Elk with us LOL . Just like they share their Salmon with us too. It's really working out in someone's favor...

[Cultusman]

 The only reason there are 9x7 Bulls running around the landscape is because these Elk are on private land where the Tribes and State can't manage them.

[meat hntr78]

Exactly right Cultasman. As is the Bull in my Avatar hiding on private property last week.

[Green broke]

Was said bull killed on private property?  Ignorant statement to say the least. 

[Green broke]

The bull in your avatar was in Bill Johnsons old field (now owned by an anti hunter). Fyi

[Boss .300 winmag]

Hhhhmmmmmm

[meat hntr78]

Yeah Green broke. I know where I took a picture at . And that's the point whatever bull is shot by tribe probably wasn't on private property.  And probably wasn't shot on res. Either . Statement says they don't get them from private river bottom fields as is that's where they can grow big. Reread.

Am I misunderstanding? Forgive me.  It does say 9x7 are only there  because of private.  I might be mistaken but I don't think that bull was killed on private land. Do they only grow big on the valley bottom?  I have an idea we will manage the forest elk and the state can manage the private river bottom.
