NE WA late modern whitetail
« on: November 02, 2016, 11:02:42 AM »
Anyone heading out this weekend to chase whitetail? I think I am going to give it a few days while I wait for some more ducks and geese to move down. I am just trying to decide if I drag my trailer up for just a night or two or just bring a tent.

Mule deer have started rutting early however whitetail are going to be later this year... Last year I'd say around 7-14 was the greatest however I'm going to go out on a limb and say it's going to be a few days after the 19th after rifle
Season gets over :(  :(

A short 25 mile drive to my spot in 124 for this weekend. Saw lots of does early season so am hoping something with horns is right behind them this time.

Glassed up this guy while looking for elk. Looks like I won't be chasing elk this weekend.

All this early rut talk is nonsense.  Ive spent the last couple weeks in the woods, and the little time im not in the woods im watching the deer at home.  No rut behavior yet.  No seeking, no chasing, no big bucks acting like kids.  Its just flat out not happening yet, and likely wont be for another week at least.  Settle down guys.

I have 7 whitetail bucks and a dozen does here every morning in the dark..No rut behavior yet. They are just interested in the food.  I did see my first scrape out on one of my leases today...first one this season. Mulies are starting to show rut signs.

0 rut activity on my cams.. Mule deer always rut before whitetails. The deer in the mountains up north hit the peak of the rut a full week sooner than the southern units always been that way. We hunt 101 every year and those whitetails are rutting hard by Nov 15

Oh I would too. I guess I assumed it was a rifle shooting trip rather than a hunting trip.
Good luck, dude.

I'm pretty sure I know where you'll be!  Good luck!  I'm still looking to fill my tag, but will probably go to Montana after Thanksgiving.  I've got a WA tag as well.
