Well here i am sitting on the computer looking at some other hunters succsess thinking about my sheep draw. Not sure if i'm nervous, worried or just plain excited. I know this hunt is a very special one and the chance of success is good. Never hunted a sheep before and not real sure where to start lookin but hey i'm sure i'll figure it out. Pretty much a once in a lifetime draw for the infamous Kamloops lake sheep. Am i excited or just plain nervous of not filling the tag, not sure myself. With work and a busy schedule i haven't had any time to go and scout it out. Well enough of that, i'll sit and stew a little longer. Only 13 days and i'm off to try my luck. Good luck to all out there, and stay safe.

I'm sure if you asked for help you end up with a ton of people requesting to help you. This is a once in a lifetime hunt....I would myself would jump at the opportunity to help but I do a live a fair ways away unfortunatley....

Its always a little nerve racking waiting to go sheep hunting,or any extended trip.Sounds like there's lots of good rams in your area,and it is the draw of a life time.Take your time and enjoy sheep watching for a while.You should get a great ram.Take lots of photos for us.
Good luck.

The rams have been pretty easy to spot the last couple of weeks. I take my nephew out there every other week or so to look for sheep. he cant get enough of it.

i would say good luck but you dont need it. it will be a walk in the park!

cheers

cheersSo should i go from the savona end or rosseau end? Go sit at the look out across the lake or come froma above. Ride a quad into some area from savona end or walk the tracks? Drive in from tronquile past the dewdrop? So many questions.

Im not going to spoon feed you the info. It has to be the easiest hunt in BC right now. All I will say is spend a few hours on the hwy and glass accross the lake. It wont take you too long to find some rams......

just watch out for the rattlers. there are a few around the north side of the lake....

It's all good, don't excpect a pinpoint. Wouldn't be much fun that way. It'll be a hoot anyway. How about a suggestion as to where a good quiet camping spot is? 19 ft trailer. Up the rd before savona coming from cachecreek? Used to be the criss creek rd i believe, when we logged up there yrs ago.
