Big Game Hunting > Bear Hunting
Spring bear..
WDFW-SUX:
I know there are some really really big ones in there and Im really bummed that I did not draw. This first spring hunt should be a GREAT one. I have seen some of the photos from the Quinault hunts and they routinely kill bears that square over 7ft and there are supposed to bear bigger ones in there too. I think a bio found a paw print that had eight inch pads! Hope you kill a biggin defiantly a chance for a B&C boar.

I am totally against the tribal baiting of bears on the Q Rez, but I have no doubt that a state record could come from that area if you found a guide to really put in the time.
I agree that this first spring hunt in this unitshould be a doozy. The only concern is the ongoing hound hunts.
Here is a bear that my brother got in that unit last fall. It scored 18 5/16.

Hello all. First post for a newby to this sight. Be interesting to see how many applied for the new units, especially Copalis. As far as points, only 3 total available, right? Me and partner drew Kapowsin first year (what a joke), last year nothing. Wife has drawn Capitol 3 years running, and I'm in with her this year. 2 tags/1 point. Now, hope to see one. Planning on hitting it opening weekend. Good luck to all the tag holders.
WDFW-SUX:
Thats a gorgious bear. The only thing that worried me about the hunt was if the bears were all over at the bait stations and not in the right area....I doubt it will matter though. Agree about the state record you never know it might come out of the copalis.
WDFW-SUX:
3pts is a low number people have been applying for eastern units for a long time.
