Well lets see how many fine HW folks got lucky with probably the most coveted spring bear tag. :hello:
-
I had Monroe 1st pick & North Skagit 2nd pick = not selected & not selected :'(
-
Me and buddy drew. hope they kept it at 20 permits and not 30

I dont think they changed it this year but i wish they had because then the season would be until June 15th.
When i drew a couple years ago i only saw 2 other hunters out their. I really never saw anyone. I didnt see a ton of bears it was over 10 but i dont remember the exact number. I archery hunted until my last weekend and then the 2 bears i saw were diving into the brush on the way in.
My wife had plans for us on memorial day weekend so i missed the best weekend of the season. This year i told her i am not going anywhere, planning anything for that weekend.
Yup... i drew. My brother in law drew and a buddy drew. Should be a fun time. It is a great hunt.

Saylean I always need a pack mule :tup:

You guys who drew are lucky, that's a great tag.

Why do you think it says, "team slayer pack mule" by my call sign?
Its gonna be great. Of course, the way you hunt, you need a companion, not a packer. :chuckle: :tup:

The wife was asking me if I would be able to fill the freezer this spring. Then she spotted laughed and asked when was the last time I shot a bear...
2008 she was with me
I think I will have to drop the bow and grab the 280.

Is everyone going to make it to the meeting coming up?
Should be interesting.
I also thought i should provide a link for people who have harvested bear in the past, sent in a tooth and never got the age of the bear back from WDFW.

I checked the link recently on my fall bear last year....nothing yet. I understand it takes a full year to get the results back and posted.

Received my Skagit permit in the mail today. Season runs until June 15th. :IBCOOL:
I'm going to be spending a lot of time in the hills this spring. :hunter:

I think quite a few permits are going to get filled in the extended time, smart move by the game department on making this change.

I was drawn the 1st year (2008). I have been putting in since unsuccessfully. This year I wasn't selected although I put in w/5 points. Its a great area. I'll try again next year w/6 points but at 73 I'm running out of daylight :) I still can say that the 2008 boar was the best out of 5 so far.

Good luck you bear hunting fools :chuckle: :chuckle: just to bad they do not give out some for the southside :bash: :bash:
