tribal hunting
« on: September 15, 2011, 06:59:35 PM »
Had the chance to witness some tribal hunters bugling out of the back of their truck while driving the mainline. Turns out they killed a mature 5x5 with a 270 about 600 yards from me while I was hunting with my bow. I was hunting in the olympic peninsula. How does tribal hunting effect your hunting grounds?

It effects where I hunt, but only by the roads because most of them are to lazy to walk more than 5' from their truck even after they shoot something that runs off. Last year there was a few of them in their truck shooting at deer in their spot light at 2am with a .22 They were shooting right toward our camp and horses. The following night they were racing their pice of chit truck all around, the next morning there were skid marks on some curves where they almost went off the road, I kept waiting to see their truck down the hill off the road ( wishful thinking). We went to town and told the dispatcher at the police station. She said she would call all the Fish and Game and Forest service cops and let them know about them hunting at night and shooting at our camp. I talked to the forest service cop this spring and he said he never herd about it.

 *censored*

I have heard horror stories and only witnessed the sounds of one incident. Heard about 20 gun shots and later (through hearsay) that it was the tribe using AR-15's to harvest an entire herd. But I didnt see it with my own eye, just ears.

Harvest?   
Somehow AK 47's don't seem to be historical tools.

Like others say, they dont leave there rig so they dont effect my hunts other than the fact that they kill a $hit ton of elk. I know of three Indians that actually get out and hunt ethically, most *censored* won't track what they shoot at. Its disgusting some of the crap they pull, but not to much we can do about it

A several month rifle season during the rut in many places where others have to draw a once in a lifetime tag is not hunting at all.   Maybe the title should be "tribal slaughtering" or tribal killing at best.  I think they should have to use a bow and hunt strictly on tanto or on foot if they are going to get special seasons.  Shooting an elk with a rifle out their window when the archery guys are working their butt off beatin the brush.....

I have yet to witness tribal "hunting" in places that I hunt.   *censored*   If they want to make bows from sticks and sharpen rocks into arrow heads, let them hunt year round for all I care.  Otherwise they should buy hunting licenses and put in for special permits like the rest of us.

The Greenwater/White River area has kind of been known as being the first and worst killing area for tribal elk. Use to be one of the most populated units in the state for elk, now it is a special permit area only.

The reason the Nooksack was closed for about 18 yrs is because the Tribes slaughtered the Elk herds. Nuff said!!!!! :bash: I don't even want to get started on what the Tribes have done to the Skagit river. :puke:
