[huntertj]

MN website shows that winners have been notified. Anyone here get a surprise email today? Not me. 4,425 applicants this year. Up 1600+ applicants from previous record.

Arcola....do you live around Stillwater?

 

[huntertj]

Me either. I put in for the late season cow elk license. 1 for 4 on big game apps this year.

No luck here. Looks like I’ll be keeping my bear tag for September.

Yes Sir.

I was a little peeved when I moved from Wisconsin to AZ and all of the sudden Wisco had a Elk season, grew up there and even went to the site where they released the original Elk in Clam Lake. However my irritation was squelched when I saw how many tags they were giving out haha. Maybe in 40 years I'll be able to hunt them in my home state, until then I'll hunt AZ and CO!

Out of 10 tags last year, 6 went to the tribes. It's a step in the right direction, however slight.

 

[TheNorthStar]

Yes Sir.

Grew up in Stillwater. Suppose you're off the trail there, Arcola?

That I am. Small world.

I live in Woodbury...hunted Arcola a bit. I'm planning on hunting the islands north of Scandia this year.

Just found out I drew. This has been a good week. Caught a 30 inch walleye a couple days ago as well.

Congrats! Might want to pick up a lottery ticket to round out the trifecta.

Beats TN... we have about 12 tags available, including archery, gun (random draw for 5 or 6 4000-6000 management units) and youth (age 13-16), and a raffle.

We would have more elk and opportunity, but the restocking program got shut down just as it was really getting established due to the better understanding of how CWD can be spread by moving cervids around.

Congrats on both!

Holy smokes, longtime listener, first time caller!

swing and a miss for me on drawing my august cow tag, but I am not surprised, I would be more surprised if I did draw. It is really good to see that a couple people associated with this forum did get drawn though. I really hope you take the time to write up a little play by play and post in on here after the hunt. I would love to read it!

Another unsucessful elk draw for me, 6 years and no love yet. But I'm going to Idaho in Sept to chase elk there.
