The washington maps show that there are mostly Merriam's north of Spokane. Just wondering what the persentage of Merriams to Rios is....also how many guys are getting easterns.

Dad and I took 3 Merriams North of Spokane opening weekend. Supposed to be there now, but brother in laws dad is in the hospital. Heading back Wednesday to help a friend get a few. All I ever see are Merriams, would love to get on and Eastern one of these days, but not to excited to spend the 10 years I hear it takes to locate one. :)

Two Merriams hunting opening weekend and the 3rd weekend, both in NE WA.    :)   Time to try for the elusive Western Eastern??

Awesome!  Throw up a pic of that.  I don't ever recall seeing two species posted in the same harvest pic.

Theres pics under turkey hunting somewhere. I posted them around the third of April. I think the title to the thread was "Hunters first turkey(s).

We have taken both Rios and Merriams on our property on the same day...hopefully this year will be the same.
