Since the year 2000 my party has drawn two Watershed bull tags (with two 6x6 bulls harvested), three Observatory (Manastash) big bull tags (with a 2x2, 4x4, and 6x6 harvested), one Blue Creek tag (14 year old girl didn't make the shot), and six Dayton A tags (with all of them being 6x6 or bigger up to a 398 7x8). this year we have one Dayton tag and a Watershed tag to go after so we will be busy.
Lets here what you think and more importantly is why you feel the way you do about the GMU.

I thought you eastside guys said there were no bulls in the blues :dunno:
:chuckle: :chuckle:
There isn't, this is a deception tactic spearheaded by the CCC once again to keep people out of the Colockum where all the 400 in. plus bulls are a dime a dozen. Don't believe him, anybody that's familiar with this tactic and any real hunters knows that you don't divulge your honey hole or where the elk are, I seen through this tactic the minute I read the title. :chuckle: :chuckle: :chuckle:
Anywhere between Mt. Adams and Ellensburg for me and my family. :tup:

I dont think you give up your honey-hole by declaring what GMU you hunt in! And anyone that doesnt know that Dayton, Blue Creek, Wenaha, Watershed,and Tucannon are the best trophy GMU's in the state arn't the smartest around. It doesnt take much to read the hunting results and the size of the elk harvested off of the State Web site and notice where the Auctioned off Governers tag shoots his elk every year. So I don't think I am letting out top secret honey holes by any means!You are killin me man, killin me. No elk in the Blues, Huge bulls in the colockum and lots of em. :tup: :chuckle:

The colockum :) that is where all the trophy animals are :tup:
Used to be, most got shot out over the last 6 summers or so. Few straggler big boys around.

Thats strike 3 run. Whatever happens its now out of my hands. 8). And Woodchuck let that maniacle leader of yours "Pathfinder101" know to watch out. There's Apaches in Idaho and now some at Ft. Lewis. Tread lightly. :chuckle:

For whatever reason there is a elkless void North of Ellensburg and South of Wenatchee. But in the Observatory area and the Blues. Man there's some big elk there. Blues have always been big. But man that Observatory area is just exploding in its big bull population.
Don't listen to him, I shot the only elk in the Observatory last year. A spike at that.
