Desperate for Western WA Grouse

[Mrwest]

I live in Marysville, WA. Looking for grouse from North Sedro to Skykomish. Nothing south of snohomish. I've put a ton of miles in, I'm desperate lol hunting without a dog. Looking for someone to share a honey hole through PM. I know it's greedy but like the post says. I'm desperate haha dont have any time this month to get over east. Shooting a 20 gauge ithaca model 37 handed down from my great grandfather. I would love to get into some birds before the end of this season. Any pointers on elevation or location this time of year is greatly appreciated. Haven't seen a single one this year.

Thanks!

normally they are on logging roads...if you see a keystone light can there should be a ruff around the area.  If you get hired up the road and see a busch light can that is were the blues live

[MtnMuley]

Close, but you're a little confused. Higher up where the blues are is where the Keystone Light cans are.

I kill most mine while drinking coors light

I can't remember if it was Bud Light days or during my shift to Ice House. lol

A "Growler" near a culvert on a North to South logging road has always indicated a mecca of grouse for me. Even if the hunting is bad, the Growler is a nice find.

I don't see it in the regs but isn't Grouse closed for the year? Or is it dec 31st?

[bobcat]

Grouse season has always closed on December 31st.

I have dogs and I don't really hunt grouse on the west side. For the amount of time I would have to drive to get to spots to hunt them I would rather drive to eastern wa.

Growler? like an empty beer growler or some type of critter? Are you referring to a bobcat? not trying to be a smart@$$ this time, I am genuinely curious

Just gotta walk the gated roads. They're harder to find when there's snow on the ground.

Don't be afraid to walk areas you have been already.  I could have limited out on some days, then Ill go weeks without seeing a single grouse while walking the same path.

IF YOU FIND KEYSTONE,BUDLIGHT,BUSCH,COORS and ICE HOUSE CANS.

you found the breeding grounds       .

Don't be talking chit about Coors Light.  And don't you even think about dissin' an Ithaca 37.  That's a John Browning classic!!

Mr West, you are welcome around the campfire any day.
