Grundy's Aladdin Moose Hunt

[fishngamereaper]

If you call one in assume you have at least one more coming you can't see. Happened to use a couple times when my buddy had the tag few years ago.

Is yours early or late?

Early

Moose rut! Going to take your muzzleloader?

Yep. I have a MS deer tag so I figured I would pack it for deer and if the opportunity allows I'll use it for my moose.

Thank you for the tip. I'll keep it in mind.

Grundy congrats on the draw, I hope you have a great hunt! I have not been lucky enough to draw Washington but I have hunted Alaska for moose. One of the biggest things I learned was to be patient with the calling, they will come but sometimes it’s from a long ways and it takes a while. I would actually get up at night and cow call from my tent just to pull bulls in for the next morning!

wasn't expecting moose on this cam, it's low elevation.  My "moose cam" is still soaking.

Nice! Always love surprises.

I can't wait to see your bull on the ground! Best of luck.

Heading over this weekend for my first scouting trip. Wish I  could've  got over sooner but I've been busier than heck this past month. My main goal this trip is to cover ground and get more familiar with the unit. Hopefully I'll get some pictures to share. Can't wait.  Thinking about leaving Friday after work.

Looking forward to this story as it unfolds!

Scouting update:  I got over here yesterday evening and within an hour of hitting the woods I spotted a moose. It was a cow but I figure that's a good sign lol. Today I've pretty much just been trying to cover as much ground as possible trying to familiarize myself with the unit. It was going great until I got a flat tire up in the woods just south of the Canadian border and had to drive all the way back to colville to get it fixed. So that set me back time wise. I've spotted the one moose ,a bunch of turkeys, even more rabbits, a couple grouse, but zero deer (other than fields and along the highway). Having fun learning a new area.  I've only been in the unit once before ( other than driving by it a bunch going over tiger pass). Is it October yet?

Found a bull last night right before dark. Not a big guy but he had single eye guards and he had paddles. He was fairly wide for his size. Sorry for the poor picture quality but he was 130 yards away and it was with my phone.

Sweet. Enjoy the ride man.

I checked my "moose cam" today, had 3000 ish pics of 2 small muley bucks, 1 doe w/ fawn and 2 moose bulls.

Unfortunately a bear or something got 12 feet up the tree and twisted my cam around.

I did notice one bull had a good amount of ticks, not life threatening, but quite a few!


no pics good enough to share
