Here are the pics of mine and my Dads hunt on Catalina Isalnd. This was to be a doe hunt only but starting with this hunt we were able to take small bucks as well. We were able to harvest 2 animals per hunter. There were 8 hunters total and we took a total of 9 animals. The herd has been depleted quite a bit, but that is the goal of the Conservancy. As you can see in these pictures, the deer are in poor shape. Over a day and a half of hunting, as a group we saw only about 25 deer. It rained on us during our one full day of hunting that we had which really put a damper on things. Everyone had a good time. It is always nice to hunt with my Dad. I was the first to shoot an animal at 3:05 the first day. My Dad ended up shooting his on the last day at 3:00. The hunting was hard. Everyone filled at least one of their tags except on hunter who didn't even get a shot. His son, however, shot his first ever buck on this trip...a 9 inch forked horn. I hope you enjoy the pics. It is a beautiful island and if they offer this hunt again, I'd go again.
