Not sure if I should bring the rifle or just the scoped .44 revolver
The guide is cool with it either way.
Also would a shotgun be out of question?

From Hellers bar up river is a draw unit for Idaho unit 11. The Washington side only goes up river a few mile to cashe creek then become Oregon which is another draw unit. I'm not sure but I think a big part of that Washington side might be private also.thanks, will definitely check the regs and areas we will fishing.

The six miles or so on the Washington side is brutally steep, especially around the shovel creek area..and not to mention there will be scores of hunters canvassing the area while fishing doing the same thing (as well as guys camping/walking from the bottom) You may get lucky and find one running around the hill side, but honestly I wouldn't expect it. Great time to be steelheading, I'd recommend finishing up with your limit and then driving up to the Joseph Creek area, least you can get out and walk around. Bet heck, you never know what happens once they start running. But rifle for sure, birds may be down to the water if warm out, but that would just slow up the fishing. Enjoy, good luck.Thanks for the replies guys,
Talked to my guide and he assures me he knows where it's legal for me to hunt.
The .300wm is tuned and ready the .44 would only be for a bank side deer.
2 day trip, more fishing than me and my dad really need so having an option of putting a buck on board will be awesome.

Boy I still would get some kind of GPS showing ownership.... that's putting a lot of faith in a guy. Maybe I'm just skeptical of other people, but I'd be 100% sure of where I was before I shot something up there.

Solid! Should be good then, just always a good idea to be as sure as you can.
