    Wolf Hunting

    Hello All

    It seems the more I browse this forum the more comments I see about wolf over-population. Right now I am 100% focused on deer hunting but I am planning a wolf hunting trip for mid-february (reading break). So seeing as everybody and their dog... haha... wants the wolves dead, are there any specific spots in region 3 or 8 or 5 within a 4 hour drive of the lower mainland that would be a good bet for wolves? Also what are some good strategies for getting those guys in the crosshairs? I normally wouldn't ask for info this specific but it seems guys want these things gone more than anything so I thought it would be acceptable in this case.

    Cheers, Sylus

    Good thread.
    It would be nice to see an group hunt organized.
    1. Human over population
    2. Government burden and overreach

    Id be all over some sort of group predator hunt. Pretty sure its been attempted and discussed but never builds momentum.

    I have been seeing a lot of activity in 5-1, gaveup on deer there and been in 3-×× and tons of sign . Scat , tracks and even a freshly chewed deer leg . But still no visual or hearing them . The harder i look for deer the more wolf sign i see . I have been using an electronic call but only coyotes coming in . Seems like all sign i see i am a few days late .

    True, the map only goes so far. But the how section is pretty good

    I would be up for a group hunt as well! I had no idea you could bait those guys, my girlfriend works at a butcher's ship so it looks like I am set haha. Would a fawn in distress call be a better bet than a rabbit in distress call?

    one would think.
    I don't think wolves waste too much time trying to catch rabbits.

    Cow moose call is a good one too.

    I've used a foxpro lots using wolf howls, and have had them howl back right away, but never show themselves. It's frustrating, you know they're there but you don't see them.
