Elk hunting with a modern firearm this time of year must be nice.
There are several Rifle rut tags available by draw, for "Joe Hunter" Margaret has some, the Lewis, Goat Rocks, and a few others ....

Buck, you've got incredible will power if you passed on a bull of that caliber because I don't think I couldve.

there are alot of rifle rut tags for joe shmoe, so put in for one, sounds like that tribe is doing it right, what do they give out? 3 or 4 tags, sounds like a sweet deal, congrats to the hunter, damn nice bull, cool lookn antlersSupposedly the Tribes & Non-Tribes get the same allotment of Nooksack tags. The Non-Tribes get 12 Quality tags & 12 Spike tags & are weapon specific where the Tribes also get the same number of Tags for a total of 48 Tags. The Tribes get to use any weapon they want to use at any time which is what Wea300Mag is referring to when he says it must be nice to be able to use a Rifle.

Wait for it, wait for it, wait for it...........alright, I'll say somthing. I dont know, so dont jump my $hit but wernt the tribes the ones that almost killed off the herd years ago? :dunno:
Post by: JackOfAllTrades on September 21, 2012, 09:44:29 PM
Now for the 'wait for it'....
I am sick and tired of that tribe and Siera Pacific pulling the strings for that hunt unit! I hunted that unit in the mid/late 80's when it was open to everyone as Crown land. Everyone knows how much poaching took place then (FROM BOTH SIDES!) because of lack of involvement of WDFW law enforcement and the tribe..
But it is not right the way things are now. It is flip-side over-managed now.

And there it is! I was going to say something when I first read the comment earlier but thought, why should I take the joy from somebody that is just dying to say it!LOL. I thought it wouldve been earlier and not so long of a wait but, I knew it would come.LOL. Sled, don't worry I was trying ok, am trying to keep some humor going so this thread doesn't get detered and sideways like some others.

The gentleman that took this bull is a great guy, with a legal tag, using legal equipment. The only posts on this thread should be congratulating the gentleman for taking such a nice bull.

I agree with John and STeve, The herd was decimated in the late 80's and early 90's, by both sides and just piss poor management. The whole month of January was a muzxzie hunt, and I know for a fact a lot of cows that had been bred never made it past January. I loved it when it wasa Crown and the main line and most other roads were open, they have taken away a lot of prime bear and deer country by locking it down. Of course, the slobs and vandals did a lot to force them to do so, the dumping and damage done to the equipment. Then we had everybody with their own sets of keys to the closed roads, running their butts all over the place up there where it was closed. The Tribes have done their part and then some to get the herd back in the right direction, it is almost at goal again. AS far as the over management of the herd, well that is the WDFW, I have asked them when the new Nooksack herd management plan would come out, since the other one is so old.... yep they will get right on that....
The gentleman that took this bull is a great guy, with a legal tag, using legal equipment. The only posts on this thread should be congratulating the gentleman for taking such a nice bull.
110% spot on!!!
Congrats to the hunter! :tup:
