Post-Season Blues
 

What a kick in the shorts. I can't believe something you wait for, for so long, can be over and done with so soon. I was off today, and didn't know what to do with myself. I hunted elk in september (got zip but had several encounters), antelope in october (got two), deer in november (got a muley buck, whitetail doe), and pheasants in december (got a freezer full). Sounds like a lengthy season, and it certainly was a successful one...but how can it be over already? I'm sure there are some folks out there feeling the same way, or will be shortly. Oh well...I guess now it's flyfishing on the Missouri River and counting the days until spring gobbler season!

Tried to post a pic....without much success I see.

Yep, always sucks when hunting season is over. By the way, I notice that you are from Montana and your handle is Moose Drool - That's good beer! Great name too!

You've got no reason to have the post season blues if you hunt and fish there's always something to do. I plan on going for some late season pheasants this year and a couple goose and bobcat hunts. I love to ice fish so that will keep me busy until ice off and thats also when the fly fishing really heats up. But I know what your going through, for me up to about a month and half after my muley and elk hunt is over I'm still ready for more of it.

I am with you, elk hunting one nice bull, deer hunting two does, and mountain lion hunting until March, I am considering trying coyote hunting, see what that does for my hunters blues.

Well moose drool is a very good beer, however, Trout Slayer is still #1 for me. As for the end of the season i've got a late season cow tag till the first so i can stave off that bad feeling a couple more weeks.

When do you guys find time to work????

I'm fortunate in that I have the option to hunt or fish in some shape or form. every day of the year.
At the moment the Trout fishing is "Hot"
King Salmon have just started running in the river. (Nice big 3-4 year old fish, plenty being caught over 20 pounds.)
Sea fishing is good every day of the year.
A spring spiker is on my menu, (Tried last week, but missed, will have another crack next week.) and the Alpine hunting is good too.
Bird shooting has closed, but there are places open for Canada Geese.
Time/$ is the only problem.
