Looking like a wet one for the opener!

Boy the forecast isn't looking good on the wet side or the so called dry side. Its looking like it could be wet in most of Washington at some point. Oh well, maybe less people will be in the woods

Will be out duck hunting and thinking the same thing. Maybe that means we won't have to be out quite as early to get a spot

Rain,wind  BRING IT ON !!! Blacktail time

PERFECT blacktail weather.  Last year during the 40-50 mph windsrorms with driving rain I was hiking timber edges and seeing 30-40 deer per day and no other hunters. You aint a blacktail hunter if you stay at home or in your rig during the big storms.

Just ordered fresh raingear and xtratuf wetlands rubber boots. Body will be dry, hope the tent holds up

Now I don't know about all that PolarBear!   The 40 - 50 mph winds in the timber part - well, all those trees laying scattered on the forest floor got there by crashing down around hapless hunters chasing blacktails in storms - at least that's the way I heard it.    Those big blow days are clearcut days in my book. 

I ordered new rain gear from Cabelas Thursday - it arrived today, the day after I got totally soaked sitting in a tree stand in my old "rain gear" during that pissing rain yesterday.  I think I'm good to go for the weekend.

When the wind is like that, I find lots more deer in clear cuts or right on the edge of timber or hills on the leeward side. The big winds are over the top of them and they are in that light swirly wind area.

For how much it's been raining I'm sure the deer would be bedded most of the time especially if it rains on Saturday.
