I am all for making us pick "east" and "west" deer tags just like the elk


I'm not sure if that would have any effect on the number of deer hunters on either side of the state.    :dunno:

 :yeah: although it might be less cramped on the westside after the first week

You guys are AGAIN willing to let the WDFW take away hunting opportunities for everyone in this state......   :bash: :bash: :bash: :bash:

By making you chose which side of the state, which weapon you will use, etc.....  all you are doing is letting them divide and conquer us..

We need to quit bickering about westside/eastside, archery vs. muzzy vs. modern, doe vs. buck.. etc......  otherwise one day your gonna wake up and there will be no hunting period, between the Natives and the wolves, there will not be enough left for us to hunt according to the state...  So keep up the bashing and the dividing and the bickering amongst ourselves... see where it leads us..  no where good I can guarantee you.
By my honorable conduct as a hunter let me give a good example and teach new hunters principles of honor, so that each new generation can show respect for their god, other hunters and the animals, and enjoy the dignity of the hunt.

Huntbear You made a good statement about quit bickering it;s should be about hunting and oppurtunity. It would be like No more Non Resident tags in Idaho or Montana because residents feel overcrowded the wetside guys going over to the eastside or east to west adds a lot to locally depressed economys. Giving the WDF any more ideas than the already have is a big mistake.

Agree.  I have never hunted that unit, however, I am tired of the bickering and finger pointing by each little sub group in our hunting community.  The WDFW has SCREWED all of us long enough, when do we UNITE for a common cause, our hunting heritage?   :bash: :bash: :bash: :bash:

Now is the time. We as americans quit buying licenses and hit the state in the pocket book. This has been stated now we must use the intronet to our advantage and bring back our wildlife.!!!

Just divide WA into two states. Like the carolinas or virginas. Out of state fees for wetside to hunt east and out of state fees for 509ers to fish west. OH, that wont ever happen because west WA needs eastern WA money.  Since king co is the majority.

Yes they are.. but YOU can still put it on the ballot... make an imaginary dividing line... and let everyone vote....  Yes you can do that in this state... So I will expect to see it on the ballot next November?  I mean if you feel that strongly about it....

The answer is to open more Late Archery GMU's around the state (to spread out the hunters), or make it permit only for everyone, or limit the amount of Rifle opportunities (general season and a Late Permit), or all 3.

Personally, I think it's an awesome privilage to draw a Late Rifle Tag...so maybe don't get rid of those.
But....definitely open more GMU's up for the Late Archery season...this will spread the hunters out.

It is inevitable that the WDFW will screw this unit up very shortly...as they have done with the Colockum Elk.

Genesis 27:3, "Now then, get your weapons, your quiver and bow, and go out to the open country to hunt some wild game for me."
