You talking bout the C-Line?  I don't have my maps in front of me.

As much as I have been on this side I have yet to see a coon or sign up in CF.  I am sure they are up their.  Just can't vouch for how many. :dunno:

I see dead coons along the HWY on my drive to Aberdeen every friday.

The creek dose hold a good number of fish, so i would imagine coons would be around, but do not hold me to it. :twocents:

Were you up at the Porter campground?  There were quite a few crawdads and fish in the creek when we were up there and a ton of trash left by slobs  >:( >:(

I don't see a ton of coons around here but I am pretty sure there are some around.

There are tons of yote's however  ;)

I wish the land right across from my driveway wasn't in a no shooting zone. You could get some coons, and I could sleep at night knowing they aren't going to steal my dog food...  :chuckle:

According to the Thurston County Geodata website...here is what it says for the parcel of land:

 No Shooting Zone:  OFFUT LAKE, No Shooting Areas - No Exceptions

Thanks for the info. I was always told it was ok to shoot out there and we always have for over 25yrs. No trouble yet.

It is going to depend on the "zone". Some state no shooting of any kind. Not even a bb gun.

This is exactly the image the anti's used to take away trapping and hound hunting in the past.

Post by: Houndhunter on February 27, 2009, 11:52:36 AM
this is just what a few brave souls did in the old days to get more points in the competitions, you get more points if you bring a coon in alive so i'd say its actually better than shooting them in the eyes of an anti. no need for you or anyone else to get there hair in a knot about it
Title: Re: porter camp, capital forest
Post by: ICEMAN on February 27, 2009, 06:49:44 PM
Actually, I was talking about purposely tossing the live coon to the dogs to "handle the rest".  My point was that this image, dogs shredding a coon, or whatever, is an image that shouldnt be shared.
