I'll have a wolf tag in my pocket and if, at any time, I cut fresh wolf tracks I'll be changing tactics and going after them. :)

Hope you get a cat but would like to see a wolf picture.
HAHA- I don'e know if I'll shoot a cat or not. I might if it's a HUGE one. I'm more interested in working the hounds.
Wolves will be a priority,. I want one of them in the worst way! :)

The new pups will be trashy- they always are. Hopefully the older dogs will stay straight when the pups blow up on a moose track!
Deer are less of a problem because we get so many in the yard the dogs learn to ignore them.

I was lucky enough to draw a hound permit in Idaho for 2012 and will be running my hounds for lions there this winter! I'm pretty excited to get out this year becuase I've got a couple new pups and two 4 yr old dogs that are doing well.Those dogs baying a coon :dunno: :chuckle: :chuckle: :chuckle:

A wolf needs a lot of veneson each week ..so does a cat. heard ofa lot of sightings - no shots in Nov.
good luck.

Great looking dogs. Good luck with the cats. Just be careful with your dogs around the wolves. Wolves don't like hounds.
A good friend of mine used to guide cat and bear up north of Bonner's Ferry. He told me that, and he had some really good dogs.

I wanna go. I've got an Idaho wolf tag, only good till 12/31/2011. I'd love to kill a wolf. Also, I'm very good at keeping you entertained. What about costs, lodging, tips etc ? I could take pictures too. I've got a nice Nikon D 60, a Sony HD movie camera and even a gun. Oh, I've got a real nice ATV............... :chuckle:
Come on over! I use a snowmobile, but with the snow conditions being so lousy a wheeler would be perfect for the low stuff. Bring a camera and some good luck.

nah- I had a pursuit tag in WA a couple years ago. We got a bunch of good pics but never killed one. It was a wonderful way to train a hound...sadly they have eliminated that option for hound hunters too... :bash:
Hopefully hounds will be legal for harvesting cats one day...

My butcher's friend lost his hounds to a wolf pack in idaho a couple of years ago. He tried to get there in time,but the wolf pack killed his dogs. :'(They where trained not to fight each other so they didnt fight back. They were good dogs. So Bill gave his friend the two dogs he had,because he didn't hound hunt anymore. Bill's dog are good Cat and Bear dogs. Well good luck and be safe out there. Shoot a wolf and Cat and post the pic's :tup:
It wouldn't make a bit of difference if they did fight back. In fact I bet they did. Them not fighting each other has no effect on whether they would fight a yote or a wolf. Trust me, I've seen enough photos of hounds torn in half and killed by a pack of wolves to know, it's no contest what so ever.

I think they may try to get it back again, hopefully we have a big change in politicians so that can happen. :tup:
