Thanks for bringing this back up.  I've been wondering how there scouting has been going.  Go get em guys!
Scouting has been terrible I've only seen 5 Raghorns. I'll never put in for this POS unit again!  :bdid:From now on I'm putting in for Eastside tags.

That really sucks for you James, sorry man. Too bad you burned your points on a Raghorn permit. You should have put in for the Toutle or Margret .

So excited right now I dont know how Im going to sleep.  I just got home from scouting found another huge 7 point tonight and when he dissapeared into the brush, there was an absolute growler of a bull below him bugling, he made the seven point sound like a child, had 10 different bulls from one position tonight bugling in the dark it was insane, I am very excited for tommorrow morning, I marked the spot and will be there 1.5 hours before daylight tommorrow morning!!!  Good luck 50Caljim!!!

Well I didn't see a Bull worth shootin today but we did see 2 Bears we figured would go about 280 & 325 lbs or so. I could have shot the bigger one easily but Bear wasn't on my agenda today. ;)

I spent the evening in the Nooksack Unit with 50Cal, it was very quiet, no tag filled yet. I haven't heard from Bearhunter yet.

Passed up and 8x6 last night first time at 104yards and second time at 50 quartering away but could only see mid body up and wasnt quit sure if I was ready to kill one yet or not or him I mean.  We fiqure he is probably 315 to 330 but very unique with a moose like palmation up top.  He came in again this morning but did not see him as he must have winded me.  Weather has been *censored*ty lots of wind and to much rain, it is quiting the bulls up.

Well I shot at & missed the biggest Rosie I've ever seen yesterday, I felt like blowing my head off but I'd probably F that up also. :bash: I passed on a nice 6 pt today, I couldn't get a frontal view & just wasn't sure if it had the total package or not. Going back after Mr Big tomorrow after letting him settle down a bit. Been hunting up high & its been raining sideways non stop & I've been coming home drenched. I feel like a Duck! :chuckle: Its interesting that I havn't seen any Indians hunting yet, They must be nocturnal I guess. :rolleyes:
