Just got home. If we could have accessed de smet we would have filled tags, as it is, we came home with 2 goats, both doe's. With another day or 2 we could have upped that count I'm positive.
We hadn't been got hunting in 16 years, and thought paying the access fee would take a little stress out of basically our first out of state hunt. Next time I go back, it'll be 100% diy public land, and I'm positive tags will be filled.
Game department said they will most likely be removing her from their site this year, they were not happy to hear our stories, just in case they dont, I will advertise heavily what the situation was as a warning to others.
I'm confident that I have seen every public acre if unit 10, if anyone needs help down there, I will share everything I know via pm, don't want to do it publicly as it may hurt the unit even more for a few of the locals
My biggest advice, is don't go to unit 10 lol.
I'll post more in the coming days, probably on a new thread.
