I was wondering if anyone has hunted or seen any grouse north of Merritt in wmu 3-18 or 3-19. Im planninig a trip up there on Tuesday and was wondering if it was going to be worth the time? :confused:

Just spend this last weekend in 3-18 and 3-19....saw 1 single grouse the entire weekend. Pretty slow in that area, especially in any buck season, the roads are buzzing with trucks and ATV every 10 mins....good luck

10 days so far in 8-05 and I've seen an average of 1 per day. If your going only for grouse, stay home!! If your going for larger game, by all means pack the little game getter!!

Went out around Kamloops looking for grouse - put around 4hrs on the boots, saw three - took one before the damn dog got loose. Did a little driving afterwards, to see if it was just the area I was in, and saw nothing

This is a spot that I would regularly see a lot more of them.

I got a few near Murray last week. The dog moved 5 in a few hours of walking and I knocked 3 down. Not lots this year, but they are there.
