IDFG has a statement on their website about the hard winter and feeding deer and elk since first snowfall. I don't know that I would pay to hunt 78 for a while, there are better areas in Idaho to hunt if you are going to buy a tag.
Also, I had an IDFG fish cop tell me that in Unit 78..."for every trophy buck taken legally, seven are poached". That worries me about that unit, especially when the bucks were forced so low for the whole winter.
