They have been out for a week or two, but I haven't been out looking much. Might be an early year. Lots of goats. saw over 50 a couple days ago. Three different locations. All closed to hunting, of course. Just doing what I want now.

Cold and windy here 17 degrees this morning. Some water on the sides but still can travel a few miles downriver to hunt. Hows it going on your Side of the Big River :-) Last edited by yukontrapper; 05/01/12 03:09 AM.

Looks like it could jam in that cutoff just below town though. Might have some fun yet ! Mean As Nails

Going to do some more this coming weekend. No rats in the creek so that was surprising. Bear baits will be out this week and will have some on the ground before the 20th.
