Questions about your LEH draw?

[GoatGuy]

Usually a thread on this every year.

If you received an LEH and have questions about the area, timing, weather etc feel free to ask.

[Trevorg]

Anybody that has been to pink mountain in early november what can I expect for weather. Ive been in the later season but im curious about the differences earlier in the season.
Thanks in advance

Pulled a relay creek draw for bighorn. Heading down soon to do some scouting. Any advice where to start would be very much appreciated. Thanks boys

[Trapper]

I have a question..........Why didn't I get any L.E.H

[mr eagle]

Ewe or lamb in 3-17 A Nov 1-15.

Going scouting in a couple weeks as I'm unfamiliar with the area. Any suggestions on a starting point would be much appreciated!

[wos]

My dad got a 3/4 curl ram draw 8-03 zone a second week of sept. I haven't hunted there for over 10 years and dad hasn't been there for over 30. Will be a great hunt for us and probably one of his last sheep hunts so if someone would like to give up some info please pm me. Thanks

Bad luckTrapper. I got zip as well. Going to try my luck in the general season. Plenty of critters left.

Get on Google Earth and look for the 10 - 15 year old cutblocks. If you can find ones with adjacent fresh logging and perhaps a good creek bottom full of mature timber nearby, those are the spots I'd keep an eye on. ;)

I got a roosevelt draw for the north island. I'll be able to take off one weekend in September to hunt it. What weekend would be best? I only got a car. So keep that in mind.

Cut elk into meal size steak portions, wrap and place approx. 3 portions in front basket to pedal out.

I only have a weekend to commit to this project Blainer. And if I brought that friend, probably wouldn't get much hunting done.

Your nose would be stuck to her bicycle seat.

You should get a set of mud terrains for your car. And a lift kit.

Anyone share a little info about4-38B goat? I've hunted A but not B. Looks like access will be up the end of GoldStream or Downie FSR's. Anyone been up Sorcerer Ck in a while?

Bull moose in 5-15... any advice, access looks spotty.

[JIL_24/7]

What part of 5-15? A, B, C, or D?

[JIL_24/7]

I am also interested in knowing what others might have to say about Spanish Lake above Quesnel Lake. I have hunted near Ghost Lake the last two years. Wondering what the moose situation might be around Spanish Lake as it is a much shorter drive for me.

Keep the Downie road closure in mind.

How hard is it to fill my flat top draw in 3-32 ..can i just drive up any FSR and see a bunch and just stop jump out and level 1 over the hood of my truck or what...?

Yup, thanks, was wondering about that and if a mountain bike could get me up there a bit.....

Yes, if you aren't riding GoatGuy's shitters like I was last time I was there, a bike would be really handy. Sorcerer has one section that seems prone to washouts but they keep fixing it as they are always logging a bit up there. A bike should get you many kms up there.

I think you should backpack the bitch 10 miles. Show us what yer lazy union ass can do.

Isn't that draw what the Lilloett locals consider a drive by shooting? :) K

[frenchbar]

Isn't that draw what the Lilloett locals consider a drive by shooting? :) K i was really hopeing for a little tracking to be involved

[Fisher-Dude]

Just aim a bit further back. Then you can get lots of tracking in. Maybe 10 miles.

"I got a roosevelt draw for the north island." Is Sayward in the hunting area? The logging roads south of there were loaded with elk when I was there last month.

What zone did you get lucky with?

[pinofire]

I had the early november bison hunt in zone B in 2009 There was only about a foot of snow. Guys with sleds were having problems in some spots. We had temps down to around -20 or so. Lots of wind at night on the air strip. Bring Chains. I had to lend mine to a group to get out as the road hadn't been plowed before they left. Bison were still in the hills.

Anybody that has been to pink mountain in early november what can I expect for weather. Ive been in the later season but im curious about the differences earlier in the season.
Thanks in advance

[Brizz]

A - November 1-15.

[bigneily]

I finally got my moose draw for 6-01....again... Now why is the tag closed for one week near the end of oct then opens again ?. Would this be considered the heat of the rut in this area ?. Thanx

The peak rut is more 2nd-3rd week of Sept I would think? (Edit: after more research... 3rd week Sept - 1st week Oct) The any bull GOS in 6-1 is Oct 20-26 so if that's the week you mean, you could take a bull without your LEH authorization.

[bigneily]

Ahhh I never looked at the reg's yet , Just wondered why close it for a week then re- open for leh draw's

[Gs31]

Well i managed to draw a moose in 5-02A for sept.10-30. Now unfortunately I can only go on the first half of the short season. I'm wondering how the bull's will be acting pre-rut(ish) and if anyone has gone this early? I know hot weather can be a factor. Any and all advice/tips/suggestions are greatly appreciated! Thanks, Greg

[ducktoller]

3-12 Oct bull, never moose hunt but gonna go early Oct for rut. Find water and sign, sit still and call?

Also got 2-11 flat top mule, better off on private farmland? Or pushing farther up 99 and hiking the slopes

[TexasWalker]

3-18 October Bull,anybody got any pointers?
Can trade good mule deer info for surrounding areas.

PM's are appreciated.

thanx

[warnniklz]

Me and a buddy are planning on flying into Cold Fish lake September 23rd... anyone else flying in or out around that time?

Yep, should be lots running around the pennask plateau. Start at Hatheume down on your map and fan out from there. You'll see lots of swamps in that neck of the woods. Pretty much anywhere in 3-12 is going to be a pretty good bet in october.

[aleycat]

I was there about 5 years ago and the there was good snow for tracking but the temp averaged just below 0 during the day and -10 at night so it was a nice hunt good luck

[DGuest]

Anyone else on here draw a caribou for the spatsizi? I think 49 other tags were drawn. Our tentative plans are to fly in October 5th. Anyone else been in there that time of year? Is it busy with hunters?

Plans are I'll be pulling out 5 days before you head in. I'll try to dig something up for ya

[one-shot-wonder]

Keep the Downie road closure in mind.
If you are hunting later in the season and snow is on the ground, focus on the old burn at the beginning of Downie.

There are goats up main goldstream, stitt creek, up downie, up standard basin (usually smaller billies). Downie generally produces the best. November is the time if you can get a break in the fog.

I guess you don't plan on eating your bou???
Will taste like crap that far into their rutt.

[Amphibious]

Picked up a Foster Creek goat draw (7-02F). Access is brutal, but I knew this when applying. Doesn't look all that goaty, and very under utilized draw, but I'm determined to give it a go. Anyone else ever humped it in there? Have a grizz ticket for 7-02 as well, bases covered...

great.... Just like the deer I shot last year that the old lady won't hardly touch.

LEH.... Luck of the draw alright

7-20A for antlerless elk. How do I go about finding out what land I can hunt?

It will be much worse than the deer unless you served her the tarsal glands.
You'd be best to knock down a bull before Sept 22 ...or there abouts.

I drew a 4-23B goat this year. Looks like steep country but looks awesome on google earth. Any info would be greatly appreciated!

tag is only good for Oct 1st through 15th.

Maybe I'll get lucky, or maybe we'll shoot a moose while we're up there.

I doubt if even 15 others will show up , but thats only a wag. Over 200 tags for the season , participation ?
Maybe your pilot can shed some info.

[chuckerb]

My son and I drew our first Goat tags. After several unsuccessful attempts in the areas where we have hunted and seen Goats, we tried playing the odds and drew two LEH tags in 4:38B. Any advice for goats in 4-38B (Downie Creek) area? We had a successful Grizzly hunt a few years ago in 4-37 (back in the good old days) but this will be our first Goat hunt and first time in 4-38. We have hunted a lot and have been in goat country in other areas but this zone is new to us. Any help or suggestions are appreciated!

[sabourin]

My buddy and I got a bull draw for MU 5-5. Any tips on the area is much appreciated!

I got a moose draw for 7-16C, Aug 15, 2021 - Sep 30, 2021. I have two questions.

This draw is open before the GOS (Sept 10 - Nov 5), so if I understand right I'll be able to hunt before the general season opens, right?
Any early season tips? I might be able to do some canoeing and calling towards the end of September, but just look for trails and feed in Aug?

Thanks.

[srupp]

Hmm August..water water water creeks..lakes..rivers..staying cool hydrated and out of bugs..that's for moose and you..
Bring citric acid powder. .mixed with BOTTLED water sprayed onto meat lowers PH balance and extends best before date by 4..5 days.don't rely on 4 game bags bring extra.YUKON are good quality..decent $$.flat topped tarps..so sun / rain repellent however allows wind to aid cooling.
Bring 2 pallets for back of truck for trip home..pallets tarp..game in bags
Pallets give 3.5 inches of air under and around meat..exhaust pipes from motor under truck box to rear exhaust heat the frame box..then meat.,bad.
If it rains pooled water in box..spoils meat fast..
Straight shooting

Great advice from the man SRUPP

[srupp]

Hmm already at 200 phone calls /texts from successful LEH WINNERS..

Be careful..be safe..however get out there and USE THOSE tags..
Your already a winner by getting the draw..
Now remember to SMILE...FOR the camera..
Cheers
