Had a great mountain lion hunt. Fifth trip out yielded a great tom. Thanks to Josh and Amanda for being great friends to take us out and show us a great time chasing cats. Thanks to Kent and Jay for being there to share in the excitement. This was my first lion tag.

Well, it was sure weird to pick up my rifle before the bow, but I had the opportunity to hunt for a cow elk on the Bar J CWMU last weekend. My wife and daughter were awesome to tag along and help out on the hunt. http://www.monstermuleys.info/photos/user_photos_2016/48975image.jpeg

My wife Brenda and our daughter Alyssa had Fishlake cow tags this year. Alyssa got hers opening morning and Brenda a week later. The women filled the freezers for the families this year.

I shot this deer last Monday. We are really after elk but I had a deer tag this year just in case a nice buck presented a good shot. This one presented a great shot at 20 yards.

Just got around to posting a pic of the wife's 2014 bull. Chad Draper with Blue Ridge Taxidermy an outstanding job.

Just wondering. My brother-in-law and I bought new Badlands 2200 packs in Feb. 2014. Used them all last spring and summer. Got to the hunt and used them to haul out a cow elk with the exterior meat shelf. Got home and was cleaning out the pack to wash it and noticed way down in the bottom ...

After 14 years my wife Brenda drew Fishlake LE early rifle. She worked her butt off to get into shape this year to be ready for this hunt. After 5 frustrating days of people everywhere we went and no elk, she put the hammer down on this bull at 120 yards with her .308. She was beyond words...

Is anyone available or know anyone available to haul an elk out of the mountains for a reasonable price? My wife drew Fishlake early any weapon (Sept. 13-21), there will be 3 of us for the work but if it's hot and we need to rush I am throwing it out there to see if somebody could be there...

This is a pic of my daughter Alyssa's antelope that she tagged on Allen's Ranch CWMU on Sept. 4th with a .243. This is her second buck antelope in 3 years. She drew Westlake CWMU in '09 and got a nice buck then and drew this hunt with no points. She was even filmed on "Hooked on Utah" from...

Just wondering if anybody knows of any good meat processors in Walden or Steamboat Springs or anywhere near there close? Thanks very much.

I thought I would throw out a few units that I was given for OTC archery elk and would like any input. Just looking for a good hunt to be able to get a branch antlered bull. I have been led to units 36, 37, 371, 44, 444, and 65. We have been looking at the tip sheets on the DOW website but...

Got the daughter's 2009 antelope back on Christmas Eve just in time for Christmas. She was pretty excited when she saw it on the wall with a big ribbon on it.

Hey everybody, just need to throw this out there for anybody hunting the Gooseberry area above the campground this fall. My brother-in-law shot a 6 point bull last Sunday (Sept. 12th). We tracked him for 200 yards with great blood, found the back 1/3 of his arrow and then nothing. Not a drop...

My daughter went on her first hunt ever this morning on a CWMU for buck antelope and she scored with a great goat at about 150 yards. She was one excited 16 year old. Hope you enjoy the pics.

Just got back from Alberta on our black bear hunt. We were in the Fort McMurray area with Ells River Outfitting. All 4 of us took bears. My bear was the smallest of the 4 but it is my first bear and I am thrilled to death with it. I took it with my bow at 10 yards in camp. Cannot wait to do...

I am interested in hunting this area this fall. I have hunted 32A and have looked at the topos of unit 22 as a possible area to hunt. Have any of you hunted this area? By the looks of the amount of cow tags they give out there seems to be a sizeable herd in there. Thanks for your comments.

A few of us are heading to Alberta in May to get some black bears. We have a few options as far as getting the bears back home. We can leave the bears in Canada at the taxidermist there, ship them back to the states overnight to our taxidermist here, or try to bring them back with us in the...

Where did the video of spider bull walking next to a camp go? It used to be in the elk forum but I haven't been able to find it again. Moss didn't buy the video did he?

Here is a pic of my wife Brenda and her first big game kill on Dec. 29, 2007. It was a 100 yard shot from a .270 and man was she stoked. And here is a pic of the euro mount of my 2007 archery bull that officially scored 335. 2007 was a great year for my freezer.

My brother in law and I are seriously looking into a spring bear hunt for 2009. We have never done this before and I am throwing this out to all. I know some of the basic questions to ask but is there questions out there that need to be addressed that people really don't think of like certain...

My brother in law and I are seriously interested in a black bear hunt in Alberta. We are not filthy rich so this is going to be a once in a lifetime thing for him and I so I am throwing this out to all around. I would like to see if any of you are familiar with any guides or have any...

Here is the photo I promised last week of my Fishlake bull. Roughly scored at 336.

I just got back to town with my bull from the Fishlake. I got him Tuesday morning at 9:30 after following him and him harem into a canyon where they bedded down. He wasn't really responsive to cow calls so my brother-in-law Kent bugled at him and he screamed back at us. We worked down the...

I noticed Cabelas had a ton of Dead Down Wind scent control stuff on clearance. Has anyone used this brand of stuff and does it work or did they put it on clearance because it sucks?

WHOOOOHOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!! I drew Fishlake Archery. Yeah!!!!!!!!!! Drew 10 years ago and got a nice bull. Hoping to get a better one. Should be great times. Good luck to all who drew.

I was thinking about putting in for the San Juan black bear tag from the hunt expo. Does anyone know if anyone guides this area and at what kind of cost? Thanks for the responses.

I still have until Nov. 30 to get a cow in unit 32. Has anybody seen any elk in the area? How much snow is up there? Thanks in advance for any responses.

Just saw that there was 5 tags left for a second chance drawing for fall bear in unit 32 (also includes 32A). Anybody hunt this area for bear in the fall? I heard it was a trophy bear area. I am hunting that area for elk and thought it would be nice to have a bear tag. Wasn't planning on...

Just wondering if anybody out there has hunted unit 32A in Idaho and what you thought of the area.

I got back last week from the archery elk hunt in the Fishlake area. In the 14 days we hunted, I could not believe that we could not find the elk in numbers anywhere we went. All the way from Gooseberry near I-70 to Niotche and Gates at the top, we would find a few here and there but no real...

I know we have beat the issue of ATVs to death, but this just got my goat this last weekend. We hunt an area down in the Fishlake area where there is a trail so well marked as closed with a log fence across it and a big sign saying "no motorized vehicles allowed" that you would have to be an...

Has anyone else that has looked at the 2004 Utah Big Game Proclamation and read the harvest stats notice that there are harvest data for the Fishlake area? I have hunted that area for 8 years and that unit was closed to all hunting except limited entry in 2002 but yet there were people who...
