Where’s the moose?

[Boyd Brooks]

Such a perfect spot for moose! This was Thursday mornings watch. The trusty 358 Norma unfortunately never sounded off this year. 310 yards to the end of the marsh on the right, 125 yards out front and over 800 yards to the far left end.

Another very productive spot over the years, with ranges up to 325 yards.
My idea of paradise!

Nice photos where were you hunting?

Our camp is northeast of North Bay Ont about 3 miles from the Ottawa river.

The moose was in my yard a couple nights ago. Nearly had a live sex show 50' from my front door.

Very picturesque!

Why couldn’t Canada look like that when I went for 6 months??

I think it had more to do with “where.” All I saw was the 401 and the inside of a factory/hotel. Stupid Covid.

@Boyd Brooks,

are you doing some calling as well? they should be in full rut, probably on the back side of the peak.

No I haven’t learned the art of the call. All the rest of the guys in camp can and do call. It’s on my to do list though.

My family and I saw this small bull and a cow just above SLC last weekend on a little hike. Cool animals.

Is that a shiras moose?

Yes that’s a shiras moose

I was wondering the same thing last week. Spent 10 days in the mountains west of Winter Park and Fraser. Only found 5 moose, all wearing headgear. Needed to find a cow but the only one seen someone else had found about 3-4 weeks earlier.

you will have LOTS of time before next season and plenty of time before next weekend. look it up on you tube, it will add to the number of moose you see in that spot.

Are moose tone deaf? If not they will clear out faster than the karaoke bar when I start up Bon Jovi’s “living on a prayer”!

@1dirthawker is right... Look it up on line and make it happen. When the switch flips and they are keyed in, it really works. I have called in a bunch for me and friends, including my bull this year. He wasn't there... I started calling... He was there, and trying to find me. It is worth your time to learn.
