Don’t ruin it for everyone

[time2hunt]

For you tag holders that have the Peshastin late bull tag. this is a Hunt that you should’ve had permission before the hunt started and the fighting and the squabbling is going to ruin it for everyone. This is just a friendly warning.

Running the animals around to get them on the right side of the river is kinda bogus too

[trophyhunt]

Right now everyone is looking for that hunt in the regs!!  Lol

[boneaddict]

   Well I thought that hunt was done a long time ago. Those must have been all raffle guys or special special permit.

Bring on the hay pile!!

It goes Feb 8th-15th pretty much a private land hunt in the pear orchards. If you don’t have permission prior to the Hunt or no one of those orchardist pretty hard to get permission. People seem to forget to read the little section C in the applications they draw the tag and then they wonder why they can’t get permission to hunt.

Dang, and waste a pile of points if they can't get permission.  Reward versus risk?

Bummer. I work with a lot of pear growers in the unit and some love to send me pictures of the elk in their orchards all winter long

Sounds like a damage hunt and if the landowners don’t provide access to the hunters there is not much reason to have the hunt in the future or pay the landowners for damages.

But at the end of the day, the regs tell you these are private land hunts and you need to arrange access so shame on the hunters for not planning ahead.

Sometimes they're in the fruit stands too

They like camping out in their equipment sheds too

The sign says “open” so why is it so difficult to find a place to hunt

That was the first year of the hunt and I do believe that bull was taken just up the hill from this fruit stand by a gentleman that had secured permission to the orchard

Fill the tag yet?

I’m not thinking there is anyone on this thread with a tag

Sounds like you should be applying!

Adding to this sentiment, it’s a tough hunt due to logistics of hunting in and around housing. You’re either shooting across a driveway, over a house or from the corner of a house. Not a hunt for guys that Willy nilly shoot elk. I spoke to all but 1 tag holder I believe. 2 hunters filled their tags with very respectable bulls (one of the tag holders was a 80+ year old women) who made a beautiful 600+ yard shot. There was also 1 guy who shot a bull right in the back leg and then couldn’t follow up on it because it was on a property line and crossed over to a piece he couldn’t get on.

Bottom line, to OP’s point, if you don’t have connections or live in the area it’s not a tag to put in for

Yes I will apply for it this season and also for Malaga. Multiple growers this year told me to apply and they will set me up. I guess the elk are getting worse and worse up around the golf course and doing serious damage to their younger trees and newer grafts.

When looking for or asking for permission from orchardists in these units, I would recommended looking for those that have small trees or grafts as they will likely be more willing to give you the green light.

Have any pictures?  I have a lot of this herd alive over the last month or so, would be cool to match up with what was taken.
