That is no good.. So does conformation mean that the poacher was caught? or someone saw it?No it means that I talked to another member on here that had heard it but I wasn't sure or was he, but when I talked to the game dept today he told me that it was true! I didn't ask much more due to the fact that it might be a ongoing investigation and he didn't seem like he wanted to talk about it much :dunno: I'M STILL PISSED

He told me a 350 bull and no meat/horns were taken. :dunno:
Post by: 400out on August 16, 2010, 11:15:43 PM
The bull that 400out is talking about(I assume) was killed in the 178 Peola unit up off of the Peola road. I was up there Saturday night and talked to one of the landowners who was out running around looking for bad guys. We were stopped glassing a group of elk and he came up behind us with the headlights out thinking/hoping we were the poachers. Someone was right down below his house calling elk and he thought it was us.Yes sir that would be the one! PM sent
He told me a 350 bull and no meat/horns were taken. :dunno:

pretty sad, I know of several dead bulls that have been left to rot, with only the horns and the easy meat removed.
I don't have anything against native americans but I do have a serious problems with the ones that do this. I'm not saying that other groups don't do it too but my first hand experiences have been with natives.

I understand they don't think this was native americans that killed this bull and there was no meat or horns taken at all. This I heard from the landowner guy I talked to. I know some guys got busted a few years back for killing elk up there and taking the backstraps and leaving the rest to rot. they were not native americans either....that said, there is a ton of native american hunting that goes on up in the Lick Creek unit and they all come from Idaho.
:dunno:
Post by: 400out on August 17, 2010, 10:30:43 AM
For the record...:dunno:I passed a truck the weekend before deer opener a couple years ago that have ID plates and a spike in the back! I don't know if it was native americans or not I still kick myself for not writting down the plates and calling someone just in case :bash: Tha wont happen again! and just for the record I don't care if it was a bull or a cow, if the elk was just shot because it was in the wrong spot and stood still to long! its wrong very wrong I hope they catch them :mgun: I think we need a smiley face hanging from a rope! :chuckle:

Yeah I understand getting off the road except for the fact that this area the special tags are only good in the farm land not in the forest :bash: I would amagin that the area is real hot with people watching right now I wish I could go up and play mall cop myself! :bash:
Didn't know that.. That sucks even more. You get excited to draw this awesome tag and now this crap goes down. Best of Luck to you.

Ya I'm sure its the locals and not the big land owners just punks from town. we have the same problems with the illegal aliens that work the farms here. The buck i killed last year had a 22 in his hind quarter. >:( >:(UM :dunno: I think if you were to look closer that was the bullet from your gun :chuckle:

Went up yesterday 8-19-10 saw nobody on the way up, re-set trail cam and coming back down the mountain saw 2 tequate beer cans in the road (I HATE LITTER'S) that weren't there on the way up. could be indians, blacks, mexicans,or dirty white boy's deer and elk seemed a little sciddish >:(Can you blame them!? I see that all the time and I take a minute and pick it up! Just do your part is the way I see it

I was up there in the Blues last weekend scouting and getting wood and heard some shotting Saturday pm. Tried to drive around and see if someone was up to no good...but didn't come across anything/anybody in the area of the shots.

I was under the impression that the blues were kind of "free" from tribal hunting. I guess I was wrong.
Not too many places that are free from tribal hunting in WA.
