Thanks Wayne, I have been invited over on the east side a couple of times but haven't taken them. I will continue to hunt west for a couple more seasons, maybe come over and hunt Naches one of these days. I like it over there, it reminds me of Colorado. Anyway still looking for some info, I know it's a pretty complex system they use for the points, but just curious if anyone has drawn for this area.

I could go for that kind of dough!!!! Thanks Robb, hope you get the promotion. I am ready for the season, I have the fever. About out of elk meat and not ready to go back to beef. would like to get another blacktail, I am almost convinced it is the best venison I have had, and I have had them all. Or it could be that I haven't had the others in so long I forgot what they taste like???? Have a good one.

Hey nascar I am in the Tacoma area--Spanaway. I just started waterfowling again two years ago. Lived in CO and Neb and very spoiled when it comes to the #'s and season out here in WA. I hunt Fort Lewis but since Osama, we are restricted to only hunting propertys off base. I also like to waterfowl down in the Rochester area. ( Brady, Elma). I am interested learning more about the Mossyrock Chehalis area. I killed 45 ducks last season, no geese. I have yet to take the test for identificataion. The seasons seem unfair accout of the weather. The next day after waterfowl ended, it snowed hard in Tacoma. I went out to Fort Lewis to check it out and where I was seeing 5 to 20 ducks a day, I saw hundreds. I think the season should at least reach the last of Jan. It seem to get colder anyway. I havent been to pot holes, accout I don't have the time to take off from work. I use Vacation for elk and deer. I did hunt some private land with a guy, and it was good hunting. I also talked to a guy out in Graham are who owns a dairy and he is thinking about letting me hunt this year, cause he and his kids wont be. Anyway let me know where you are at, I would be interested in learning more out here!! Thanks

gator, we mostly hunt the tide flats up here on the penn. the drought last year is what really hurt us on the numbers, but seeing as how the weather has cooperated nicely this year i think it will be great. seeing lots of little ones around anywhere from 10-14 puff balls following momma... last year on the trout ponds i was seeing 1-6.
we will be losing a member from our party this year(outta the navy, going back to montana) so we may have a slot open. we will deffinetly get together this year for some wet hunting.

im up here in port orchard.

Nascar, Sound great, let me know.. Have been woterfowling since I was eight years old and can't get enough. When I moved out here 7 year ago, I had no clue where to go, but gradually builting up the spots to go. Brady is a good place, there is an access site down there and 17 land owners with signs that say feel free to hunt. There is also a Wetlands in Ethel with floating blinds. Not a lot of hunters.
I am looking this summer for some more private land to hunt, and have a couple of leads. Found a good place down by Morton for geese. We will definately have to get together. Ft Lewis isn't bad and it's free to hunt. Kepp me informed and I will let you know if I get permission to hunt the Dairy. I am going out there this month to see if the guy needs any help around the place. There is another dairy out there, but they want 1000. a year to hunt it. Take it easy, and talk to you later.
