Good Luck.....blue tongue has hit the palouse as well as north of spokane but there are still some stud bucks out there. I am sure you already know, but most of it is private so look for State, BLM, ect. sections to hunt on. Well, unless you have acess to private. Can't wait to see success photos.I've been hearing a lot about that blue tongue :bash: we will figure something out.

Lots of private ground, that tag is better served if you have some private to hunt on :twocents:We will make the best of it.

I have the same tag but blue tongue has hit all the way down into Oregon's blues. My buddy south of Pendleton said they have found 8 dead bucks on just the land he leases. A nat bites them on their nose and causes a fever that can kill them in 7 days. Muley's can get it also but it doesn't seem to kill them like the whitetails. Their tongues actually go black.Wow that's some scary stuff!!

I know it was extremely obvious that the property I hunt was hit hard. We saw 7 deer in two days, where we would generally see 50-75 deer a day. Hopefully they don't have a tough winter on top of this outbreak. That is what happened in NE Montana in 09-10.

Go to WDFW's web page, there is quite a bit off Feel Free To Hunt land here in Whitman County and I know of a few of these pieces that have shot bucks on before and bucks come out of the every year.
If you get this before you leave, PM me and I could make a few suggestions.

Leaving town here in a few. Got a place we are heading too. Hopefully the blue tongue left at least one buck for us. Fingers crossed.
best of luck! :tup: :tup: :tup:

Blue tongue hit that place real hard this year, my buddy said they where hunting general on some really private stuff all they seen on 10 thousand acres was 9 does and a spike buck they hunted the whole week, that's sucks for all the late tag hunters best of luck just my :twocents:
Tell your friends welcome to the General hunt :chuckle: but since you mentioned it I guess I'll just stay home since there is no way it will be worth hunting in the rut! :dunno:

I had the tag as well. Hunted a Hunt by Reservation spot and saw a fair amount of deer for the short time I was able to hunt. Only two bucks though. Both spikes.
