I'd love to hear your thoughts on when the moose start rutting for real. mainly in the PG/ McBride area. When do you think it is best?

If you cite things that happen in the US of A but live in Canada, then you might be living as an idiot in a great country. ..... clueless
sept 25th to oct 15th thats my experience
September 23rd to October 20th ..... Peak rut activity is from Sept 25th to October 6th
... plateaus then after October 9th it starts to taper down to the 20th .. done like dinner
... Bull moose get nutty around Sept 9 so calling is good from then to Oct 9 for response and coming in to a call, after October 9 the bull might not come into your call
... I'd say after September 20 look hard and call until mid October 9 or so. Then roadhunt if open season in that MU.
... Hunt early mornings
... POW!

I bet there's some pre rut action going on any day now...the bulls will start feeling the urges soon

i've found the best days are first week of october on a cold morning if you are cow calling. i have heard that in around sept 15-25 a good bull grunt will get the bulls coming in to challenge other bulls but haven't tried it as i mostly cow call.
Last week of sept through the first 10 days of oct.
Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.
