re: only 16 of 26 bear tags used in LA this year
Posted by 257WBY on 1/10/26 at 8:09 am to choupiquesushi
I’d like to see a season in late August or early September when the bears are in the cut corn fields. Much easier to find a big boar then.

Our deer moved fairly well on Tuesday, but not much at all after that. Deer sightings for the year have been about half of what we usually see.

I have a wise eye using lithium in Kansas. It’s been up there since mid September without a battery change.

Colorado gets very crowded. Montana and Idaho are much better fly fishing. Son worked four summers at Henry’s Fork Anglers in Island Park, ID. They run trips and are great folks to deal with. They’re about 30 minutes from West Yellowstone and have trips on a variety of waters.
Tyler Treece is an exceptional guide and he works out of Big Sky Anglers in West Yellowstone these days. Book a trip with him now before all his days are gone.

We had a hunter take a good bear (465 lbs) and we were contacted about another tag holder late in the bear season. We declined on the second one, as we didn’t have the other big bear absolutely locked down and our bucks were starting to move good.
The season structure is such that it interferes with the deer hunting in Madison Parish.

Consider a taxidermist where you’ll be hunting. I’ve had multiple Western big game heads mounted where I killed them and they turned out great. The taxi can build a box to ship it in.

Some tag holders don’t seem to line up private land to hunt on. Also, season dates interfere with deer hunting on private property.

There are some from nurseries that drop later in the fall.

Drop the 70s idea. Get the newest Tacoma or 4Runner you can find. Forget working on a car all the time.
“want to go out West and kill something that I have to work for. That or Alaska.”
I skin one side of elk, cut meat off the bone, then roll it over and do the same.

re: What knife or tool do you use to crack open the sternum on a deer?

Hang deer up. Skin. Cut meat off bone. Reach in and get sweet meat. Haul off carcass with guts in it.

Congrats on your buck. It’s a rare situation where I gut deer. I haul them back to camp, skin, then debone meat while it’s hanging up.
