I’m on my phone so I will keep it short and sweet. The Ol lady drew a good muley tag this year in Idaho so we went out shooting and all the rifles I have had way too long of a LOP. So I started digging into some high falutin chassis rifles and just couldn’t afford it this year. Settled in on...
We have access to about 4000 acres here in Idaho through people my dad has met various ways. I would say it’s about 1 in 5 chance they let you if you door knock. Vast majority of people are very polite but I’ve also been in a couple situations that made the hair on the back of the neck stand...
Some of it has been touched on but increasing resident prices to insure that the non resident money(opinion) does not outweigh the resident money(opinion). Reinvest the increased revenue to habitat restoration and quit building subdivisions in the wintering grounds!
You’re not wrong, I truly do not get worked up about these topics. I learned as a young man you shouldn’t play chess with pigeons. I don’t think rockslide should be a place where we talk about committing felonies. Maybe his comments are within rockslide standards.
To see a healthier more mature herd of elk? Yes. And I’m not complaining along the lines of “ there’s no elk here!” I’m just saying I would rather hunt every few years and see a better age class of bulls. I fully understand some people get it done on mature bulls almost every...
I don’t know a lot about the southern Idaho units but the panhandle is a zoo. All the potential to have healthy herds and mature bulls but if you check Idfg and the statistics, almost every panhandle unit has between 1 and 3 thousand elk hunters in them. Why not change to a draw and give out...
Why would they? The non residents keep coming back in droves. Idaho needs to get their head out of their ass and make the whole state draw for everyone including residents. 3000 people in the same unit hunting bull elk in a 2 week period is crazy. Then add predation on top of that.
North Idaho panhandle rifle elk season. My dad used to hunt a unit south of CDA and seeing 3 to 4000 elk hunters in the same unit in a 2 week period is insanity. Idaho fish and game needs to get with the times and make these draw units. I hunted with him for a long weekend a few years ago and...
