Back from the trip, it was a blast. I didn't fish too much as I was busy taking in the scenery, swimming and just hanging out with everyone in our group. A lot more flat water than I imagined. The history might have been the best part. Everything from meeting the folks who are care takers for...
I'm not this way but my wife is like this. Even on Sundays...and she is a stay at home mom. Which in many ways is harder than work. I try to understand. For some sad reason, I'm usually ready to get back to work and regular life.
It's definitely not a premier tag. The number of elk is not significant and the genetics and or age class aren't nearly as good as other parts of the state. the thought of fewer hunters in the field might be the most appealing part however I used to never run into people archery hunting in the...
my wife and I got ours but it was touch and go...for me. I logged on first, she logged on a couple minutes later. She was put in line at #10, i was in the 1533 slot. I thought there was no way in heck i would get a tag however somehow, I got super lucky and picked one up. I'm not a fan of this...
I've been told there is a lot of flat water so I'm bringing paddle boards for my son and his buddies to play on. Nobody has ever said much about fishing so I figured it's mostly a scenic trip. regardless, there is time to kill so I'll cast a line and take in the scenery. Hopefully I can find a...
In a couple weeks (end of July) I'll be going on a six day rafting trip down the main fork of the Salmon river. We are putting in at Corn Creek and floating through the Frank Church all the way to Riggins, Idaho. It's my first multi-day rafting trip and I'm looking forward to it! Those who have...
you have many years to hunt or many years for the family to never let you live it down if you don't go. sucks but go and make the best of a different opportunity on the trip.
I drew the 3rd season this year and with the date shift, my hunt is later, Nov 13-19. Should be prime time as far as rut...I think. From what I gather, the hunt is not quite what it used to be but there will be opportunity to look over a lot of bucks and I assume that if I look over enough...
I have been leaning this way the last couple years as well. tags and or guns or gear. I full body mounted my OIL mountain goat and after spending thousands on it, i still look at it and think, was it worth it?
Anyone having any luck getting into elk that want to talk? I went out for the opener. Was in the middle of six rag horns and I was only able to get one light squeal. Heading to Wyoming for an elk hunt tomorrow hoping they are starting to chime off in the high country.
you are going from flat lands to vertical climbs. Are you sure you are prepared for the booty kicking that will come from 36/36b? Find a high point and glass. you'll need your eyes to cover the country because as much as you may think you are going to tromp through the woods to grandmothers...
