Thanks to Chris, for some direction, good weather, luck, the know how and the means, our trip was quite successful!
First day there, we pretty much did some road hunting and trying to find out what the country was like and where we wanted to concentrate our hunt.Saw no game, found a nice looking slash to hit in the morning.
Second day, watched about 9 moose and Jay and I spotted what looked like a bull heading towards where we sent Ed. We headed over there and were heading into the slash where we watched Ed shoot a decent 3/4 bull. Right on, pulled him up out of the slash about 250 yds away onto the road with the truck, delt with him and off to the butcher.
Third day Ed shoots a 3 point mulie. We saw a nice bull that evening but he was to far away.Lots of does around, which was going to be last on the list, LEH doe draw.
Fourth day, saw more moose again and few deer. Tried tracking a couple of bulls but got too far into the timber so we turned around.
Fifth day, Jay shoots a little 2 point mulie, right on for him, he has only been on a few hunts, never a moose hunt, so he was pumped the whole trip.Saw some nice hat racks that evening but they were too far away.
Fifth day, saw cows and does and went for a hike with Jay that reminded me that I was too old for that shit again!! lol That evening just befor dark I spotted a few deer down by the timber, picked out a nice 4 point and got him.
Around this point I think Jamie( our butcher friend ) was starting to get tired of seeing us. lol
Sixth day it was time to take my doe, so I taggeg her and won the pot!
Seventh day, the day before we were to leave, we hunted the morning, chased a few moose around but didn't see a bull that we could shoot.That was fine though, it was time to pack up and deal with our meat.
We had a great time in Quesnel area and hope to go back again. Good hunting and Good times!!
Thanks again Chris for your friendly advice, we'll have to get out together sometime!
