Whelp, my season ended on 10/31, and I've already started thinking about next season. I really would like to do a mule deer hunt in Central/Eastern WA. I've taken whitetail, blacktail, and now I'm thinking I would like to try out some Mule deer hunting in some terrain I've never hunted before.
I did a quick overnight steelhead tip this weekend on the Deschutes River, and I couldn't stop drooling at how fun the country looked to hunt. Big open country with steep grassy hillsides and tons of draws, amazing vantage points. Being a WA resident, I don't think I'd fork out the $$$ for an OR license (not even sure if a hunt on the Deschutes would be legal), but I do know of a few other rivers in OR that you could do a cast and blast type of adventure.
I'm wondering if anyone has any suggestions on good cast and blast (mainly Mule deer hunting trip, but some steelhead/salmon would be neat) in WA? Has anyone done this sort of trip in WA? All I can really think of is the Klickitat River, but I'd like to get further east than that. I'm not looking for any honey holes or anything like that, just hoping someone can point in the right direction. Open to bow and rifle seasons as I know flows will fluctuate.
Thanks is advance!
