RE: Wapiti Hunting Photos from last week
Man I' ll go back at the drop of a hat.
The area is subject to a ballot draw, there are 23 blocks split into 2 X 2week hunting periods. So 46 opportunities. Only about 10 of the blocks are good, and it' s preferable to take the first period (24th March to 6th April.) There is usually about 500 applicants. So you can see, we were lucky to draw. You are allowed up to 6 hunters per block. (We were 4 in number.) Anyone can enter the ballot (Including Americans.) and it is free of charge. This is the 8th time I' ve been down, so starting to get the knowlege to hunt these animals, and their whereabouts.
The fishing was also awesome, Brown Trout in the River (Caught a couple of 3-4 pounders.) and lots of big good eating fish (Sharks included.) & Lobster in the sea. We took a 12 foot Zodiac inflatable and 25 HP motor, so had plenty of opportunity to get around and explore.
We dined like kings.
