Ton of Sign

 Got into an area in the Copalis unit today and it was torn to shreds. Really got the adrenaline flowing. Did some calling with no response. Saw a few deer. All and all a good day in the sticks. Marks

Yep, you will probably run into some. They are not supposed to be running on Rayonier from what I was told. But they run on the other private timberlands and of course you can't stop a bear or a dog.

I ran into or heard them the last two years in the Copalis spring hunt.

That kinda takes the wind out of a guys sail. Markts :puke:Please dont get me wrong, I have nothing against hound hunting, I just thought the special permit would give the still hunter or caller an edge.

Nice work on the bear sign.  I hunted all weekend and didnt find any fresh sign.  Lots of stuff from last year but nothing from this year.  I did see a bobcat that stood in the middle of the road looking at me for about 30 seconds at 50 yards, if season would have been open he would have been done!
