SHNF hunting 2021-2022

[FlyGuyy]

It has been quiet on this thread! I hope some of y’all are out there in this crisp morning! Coldest we’ve had this year and I hope it puts some animals on their feet for you! I was tempted to go but I’m headed to the archery range instead. Last big practice session for me before I head down to Laguna Atoscossa on Wednesday.

Went out yesterday afternoon and it was really quiet. Heard a couple shots far off. Ran into some of the SHNF “wild” cattle herd but that was all I saw.

What is the story on the wild cattle? I am tucked into an area that is just about too thick to hunt with a pile of sign. Last time I came in here, fresh cow pies! Do these cattle count as an "exotic" species? I would have to call a friend, but I bet we could get one out!

As slow as the deer hunting has been, I am looking for other opportunities. Only hear the hogs when it is still dark and have not had a shot opportunity yet.

Prescribed burn hunting

How is hunting an area after a prescribed burn? I always assumed that after an area has been burned the animals should come back but the only experience I have is from Alberta, and they wouldn't like the open areas. Clear cuts were also a no go...

I ask because some of my areas I was planning on scouting are in the prescribed burn plan for this year.

It may take a while, but once the fresh tender green growth comes back on the ground it may be as good as a food plot in some areas...

Looked like they were burning yesterday near 1375.

It’s its own separate tag and doesn’t count against your normal license.

NOT correct. You still need your tag from license. The permit allows you to harvest a doe during rifle season. Otherwise, hunters can not harvest doe in general rifle. Archery ok, but you still wi have to use a tag from your license.

This is 100% the correct answer.

Howdy guys, following for when the 22-23 season thread is posted. New to TBH, not new to SHNF. I figure this thread has more serious hunters vs the facebook page yahoos. All my hunting buddies have moved since last season and I'm on the hunt for a scouting buddy. I work out of state most of the year but I come back for hunting season. I'll be scouting September and hunting all of bow season (mainly weekdays probably some weekends). I've got a boat and I'll probably be launching out of Scott's Ridge, maybe Cagle depending on the scouting reports. If you are interested let me know, I don't do public land gun season though so don't put all you eggs in my basket for the wild wild west lol. *Boat is a 15' allweld with a 2018 merc 25hp so 2 guys and gear is pretty much max capacity
