    Any Bull moose LEH during open spike fork season...Does a spikefork count as your LEH

    Question for you guys. I got a group LEH. 4 guys. We are allowed to shoot 2 any bull moose. If one of the guys shoots a spikefork moose during open season for spikefork moose in that same area, does that count against the LEH tag? I'm assuming no, but his bag limit of 1 is now taken and he himself can no longer hunt for any moose. But the other 3 guys can still hunt 2 any bull moose. I want your guys opinion as well. I will call the Conservation office as well to confirm.

    Correct, so now only the other three hunters in your group can harvest up to two "any bull" in your LEH zone.
    Too many hobbies, too little time.

    Your interpretation is correct. Lets the CO's go catch poachers, and polluters!! Moosin

    Yes but I understand the person who harvests the moose has to wear short shorts the rest of the trip so the co can readily identify him.

    As others said, correct. My group got our 2, and I got a spike the next day. Checked by COs and all was good.

    Very impressive and successful trip. Congrats to you and the crew.

    I have been in on a few triple headers and its a lot of fun……and a lot of work!!


    Good luck and happy hunting to the OP who’s question has been well answered.
    If the world is warming why are there so many new snowflakes?

    If we are all equal why do you demand special treatment?

    You can not comply your way out of tyranny.

    Fire them ALL!

    The answer is yes, but you shouldn't be allowed a spike fork at all if you have a group moose leh. That is a loophole they should close, leave the spike forks for the poor buggers that rarely get an leh draw. IMHO
