Hunt Talker Hunt 2014

[Gerald Martin]

I'm sure I'll have my gear along. You can't get too far from fishing in that part of Montana.

 

[Colberjs]

I really wish I wasn't so broke all the time. I would be up there in a heartbeat!!!!

 

[JohnCushman]

I'll be bringing my 3 wt fly rod for the little creeks, my 4 wt rod for bigger water, and a spinning rod

 

[JohnCushman]

Here's a question... I've never had work done at a taxidermist before. If I do end up shooting a bear and take it to a local taxi up there that you guys recommend...do I pay the whole cost of the rug up front, or half down and half when it's done? How does that work? How much should I tip? Can they ship the rug to me in Colorado?

 

[Sytes]

Damn, I was hoping to do some turkey hunting while I'm up there. Is anyone still planning on doing any fishing?

I'm going for a few days to assist with this "Baeeeeer Thirty" event.

I'll either bring the jon boat (some good pike fishing... "Bite Me" flies locally made!), canoe and a couple float tubes for the trout. or leave the boat and bring the utv, canoe and tubes... Though the big story from myself, fishing? hell ya!

 

[----]

I don't know of any turkeys in the area. You'd probably be looking at an hour drive to get in to them. Might be worth it to do on your way in or out of Montana though.

I know almost nothing about fishing, but I'd think you'd be looking at lakes only that time of year. Most streams don't open until May 15, and the moving water should be pretty well blown out then anyway.

Way to be a buzzkill, Randy LOL

Sounds like us men need to get some bears killed by beer thirty to have some play time on the lake! I'm up for that!

I thought this was a mother cussing bear hunt, not a mamby pamby turkey shoot.

Should've chose Texas if you want to shoot mentally challenged birds in the head and trick fish into biting a worm.

I wasn't worried about being out of shape, until now.

I better switch to lite beer and start watching Cam Hanes' Youtube channel.

Just put a high fence around our hunting area and we'll pretend it's Texas

Bears are out in MT!

well...at least one is out early. My dog and I treed this bear yesterday while out shed hunting. One of the fattest looking bears I have seen in the spring and also the earliest I have seen a black bear.

There is a place in Missoula that rents all kinds of camping/outdoor gear. I was just on the phone with them enquiring about some rafting gear and they confirmed that they do have wall tents, stoves, and snowshoes available.

Here is their website

Cool Travis! Glad to see they are out and about

 

[Elkoholic]

I like what I'm seeing. That big guy will do me just fine next month :hump:

Not if I get him first

Since I can't really scout from here. I ran just over 8 miles today, on a hilly route (for MN).

You can haul me around. I put on maybe a dozen miles shed hunting this weekend and am still recovering.

I suppose I could try and throw you in the crew cab like Braden does with his kids.

I wouldn't count on it though, you can't forget I live at about 1000ASL! I figure I need to go balls out just to have a prayer of keep up with you mountain goats for the first mile.

 

[Gerald Martin]

Some of us "mountain goats" have been more like valley sheep for most of the winter. You won't have much trouble keeping up with me.
