Has anyone received their hunt packets yet for spring bear?
« on: April 01, 2010, 02:29:49 PM »
Hey, everyone.. new to the board.

I am one of those super lucky people that got a spring bear tag first time entering. Pulled the skagit GMU 418.. any insight that anyone has as to what to expect in the timber lands would be really appreciated. Plan on being up there alot from April 15 - May 31.

Also.. has anyone received their hunt packets for this area? Really want to get my hands on it so I can start my scouting and plans!

Thanks!

Hey, D-Rock425, You're pretty excited about your tag huh?  I can tell.

I have the Monroe tag also.  I think there's a couple guys from Lake Stevens with this tag.

Just so you all know...last year they gave out the keys only a few days before the hunt.  So good luck with the scouting prior to that.  Its locked up pretty tight up in that area. 

Oh yeah, no packet for me today either.  I'm guessing tomorrow.

No keys til the 12th.   If you are curious call Chris Hanky at 360 856 3500.    He will tell you to come in with your permit and $100 for a deposit which will be returned when you bring your key back.  Also if they have anymore problems this year it will be a done deal!!!!  Be respectful up there and enjoy your hunt!!!         Hope to see lots of pics!!   Justin

Yeah I've been trying to get as much info as I can for this hunt.  I have this whole week off from work so I've been on here a little more then normal too.  I hope to get out and do some scouting tomarrow for a few hours in the morning.

Wow!, 'cuz I saw about a dozen piles of this stuff in Lincoln, I guess I know where I'll be hunting in two weeks!!!
I'll go back and take some pictures !

This is your post from the other thread. Did you see a dozen piles all in one spot? If so, I would think that would be elk, not bear. But I'll be waiting for the pictures.
