    Moose around ootsa lake?

    Just trying to get some plans together for the fall. We have looked at the Ootsa lake area. Does anyone have anything that they would like to share about the area and the moose population?

    Some guys i know have gone there for years but in the last few yesrs the moose population has taken a serious downturn. But the wolf population is very healthy.
    They are now saving their gas money.

    10yrs ago it was a great spot. haven't been in years, but there is a rather large fire burning in the area.

    I have a leh for the other side of ootsa. I hunt over there every year. Last year spent 2 weeks and came home empty handed nothing but wolf sign. Close to home and I like the area is the only reason I'm going back this year.

    No never worked over there I know a few guys that did though. Started hunting over there when I first came to fraser lake 5 years ago. Got 6-2 b as my second choice a few years ago and posted on here for info. You gave me a pm that paid off with my biggest bull ever!

    Cant really help with the moose in the area ( we got skunked the only time we went ) but bring a fishing rod and a boat if you can cause there are lotsa trout and some lunker rainbows in that lake.
