Vote for Hilary and continue to shoot spikes. I'm certainly not.



I agree that Washington could certain expand its bear hunting opportunities.  Interestingly enough though, Oregon allows spring bear as an OTC hunt but issues special permits for fall bears.  I would be interested to see how their harvest rates compare to ours.  Do we have east side units that could support two bears per year?  I think so, but I'm not overly convinced that we could boost bear harvest numbers much above where they are at right now.



Last I checked all eastside units in Oregon are permit only for spring bear, if you're going to bring facts to the table let's have them be correct

I stand corrected.  Not sure where I got that, I see it is general fall season beginning 8/1 and the spring hunt in the NW and eastern Oregon is limited entry.

My sincere apologies.

No need to apologize just wanted to set the record straight. If we are to have an informed discussion we need all the facts

I dislike misinformation as much as anybody.  For some reason I had it in my head that spring bear in OR was OTC.  The apology stands.

Your just flat wrong and have a whole lot to learn.  Someday you may reflect on this and have a better understanding.

Not sure you read my post from before...a few pages back. Got my phone hijacked for a few days. I have a little more tact than what was portrayed by my hijacker. I do not tend to share my real thoughts on any subjects here because it's a little bit of a free for all. I'm sorry that my family member offended you.

Copy that and ya I missed that post.  No offense taken and WA simply does not have enough elk to support more opportunity than it already does.  Times were once a lot different back when there were a whole lot less elk hunters in the woods.  The good ole days...
