Fishing / Re: 2027 Pink Run Destroyed

At the policy level, I agree. The liberal governors have ensured that the commission members are selected to appease the anti hunting and fishing voters of the state, which sadly, is the majority. They know which side of the bread gets buttered.

Between my wife and I, we had 60 years of doing our best to produce fish for this state, only to watch policy decisions that did its best to derail any effort to increase harvest opportunities. Hence our decision to head east, and try to forget how bad it is there now…..

Anyone who was paid by WDFW to be an expert in anything was simply cashing a paycheck for nothing after 1993.

While everyone is entitled to their own personal opinion, this quite possible be the most ignorant statement I have seen in a while…..

There are some good people however, those at the management levels running budgets and making decisions have done nothing for the sportsman and women of Washington. They have however, appeased the environmentalists. They are excellent at it.

« Last post by GeoSwan on Today at 02:18:59 PM »
I was thinking of heading into that large tract of public clear cuts West of Centralia for coyote. Anyone ever done it? Any locals k own what the population over there is like?
I was also thinking of the west corner of GMU 381 southwest of Washtucna.
Thanks

Deer Hunting / Re: Question about Hancock Timber Co Eastside
« Last post by Kingofthemountain83 on Today at 01:18:52 PM »
The fact that anyone pays money to hunt what is basically public/private land in Washington in 2025 blows my mind…

The best Rosey elk hunting I ever had was on a Rayonier lease outta Forks...  And the second highest success rate GMU for modern BT is because of Weyerhaeuser... These area's sell out every year... These areas will to if they have decent hunting...  :twocents:

Well a guy can hunt a whole lot of states or go on a really nice outfitted hunt for 8-9k(that’s their cheapest lease) and who in their right mind would pay for that to hunt that in Washington. One of their leases is asking almost 70k.

I know it's crazy to some, way of life for others... I just know how it works cause I joined a Rayonier lease for a year... It's like starting your own hunt club... It's very common in the east... And even in some areas in western WA... There is a main person that is in charge, communicates with timber company, and a bunch of members that pay their dues... Had access to 70,000+ acers behind 5 different gates... There were different groups of course, archery elk and modern deer being the most popular... This place has great elk, and bear hunting, good deer hunting... Almost impossible to get an opening... Members rarely drop out... What I'm saying is if this place has better hunting than the state and federal lands around there, they will eventually be leased out... Handcock/Manulife land has been pay to play on the west side for years and it's not good hunting imo it's fair... You can negotiate the price per acer the more you lease... I know nothing about this area but some of you know if it's worth it or not...
