But the weather wasn't cooperating either. It was in the 60's every day with frost only one morning and we were on the waning end of a new moon which made the nights bright. But there was fresh sign everywhere showing they were moving at night.
One other guy in camp missed a dandy bull the last morning and shot the cow that was with it to fill his tag.
There was a father and son in camp that quit because they weren't seeing anything and went home early. But they (at least the dad) was expecting to have them both shoot a moose and a bear and be gone by Wednesday. I guess he expected a moose to be behind every tree. He wasn't being very realistic. Plus the dad wanted his son who was in his 20's to hunt with him instead of with his own guide which cut their chances in half and he wanted to hunt the way he wanted too and not listen to the guide. You all know the type. Let's play my way or I'm taking my ball and going home.
