    Where is everyone?

    Had a bad one in the elk area I hunt about a year ago. Acres and acres of timber down- it is physically impossible to get through the areas. That was at 10k in elevation.

    Where is everyone?

    Wyoming and Colorado get plenty of tornadoes.

    161 Colorado moose

    Hunt as high as you can in early September. If you get some weather, the cows will move down fairly quickly. I have seen quite a few near the Wyoming border in the western part of your area. If I had the tag, I would start in the upper end of Damfino Creek where it crosses the border or...

    CORNERSTONE GUN DOG TRAINING ACADEMY

    Honestly mine is too. We have had to cut his food back as he was gaining weight pretty fast. Working a lab in 100 degree weather just isn't safe unless it's in the water. We do that when we can. Looking forward to cooler weather so we can get him back into bird shape.

    Gr8, surely you can do better than posting fake labels on pictures of random people. Throw out some good stuff that Joe is getting done... wait

    2021 Fishing

    Yes, that's the official name used in the regulations here. They fight like no other fresh water fish. 2nd best is it small mouth but they don't make long runs like the wiper.

    2021 Fishing

    Thanks! We do the trip annually on the first weekend in August. We have been going for 8 years and this was honestly our worst year. We typically catch 400+. This year we ended up with about 250- just over 80lbs in fillets. All fishing from shore, no guide, and using all artificial. Great...

    2021 Fishing

    Had a great weekend with family chasing white bass, walleye, smallmouth, and wiper. Fish supply for the winter is good.

    College Visit

    I would like to think this is a bit of natural selection and population control... at least that's the only way I can make sense of it.

    Preferred cartridge? Grip and grin pic added

    Literally any big game caliber shooting any legal bullet will be fine. I prefer to shoot them with bonded, controlled expansion bullets to keep meat loss to a minimum. My last several were with a 30-06 and 165 grain Hornady interbond. Almost no meat loss with a behind the shoulder shot.

    Time to buy points.

    I used elk last year and deer and antelope this year. The only points I have left are moose. I'll keep making my donations for at least a few years until I see how everything will pan out.

    Beginner Elk Hunt- Wyoming

    Yes. There will be a lot more general tags available since they will be removed from LQ areas. Wyoming will still sell 7,250 elk tags to non residents. It's just a matter of where those tags are allocated. I do think there will be an initial exodus of point holders so you may see a year or...
