How'd your 2018 season go?

[Guy M]

September found me in Alaska, fly fishing the silver salmon run with family and friends. That was pretty cool. Have done this quite a few times over the years. Always enjoy. Lots of bears this year.




October, made a trip to Wyoming for mule deer & pronghorn. Good trip with friends:




And since then have been doing some upland bird hunting here in Washington, with mixed success:


How 'bout you folks? How was your 2018 season?

Nice!

Is that a German Shorthaired Pointer I see?

Thanks! That's "Clark" a German Wirehaired Pointer. He's 10 now and has slowed a bit, but honestly I think he's hunting better than ever.

Here he's on point, with a hen pheasant:


With my son and a rooster:


Relaxing at home:


He's a great dog, so happy to have him in my life, not just for the hunting.

Nice Pup! I have a German Shorthaired Pointer that is an absolute fiend for chasing birds.

[Guy M]

Ya, that's part of their nature. Clark is pretty mellow at home, but dang! Take the shotgun out of the gunsafe and he starts pinging off the walls! :)

Turns into a real hunting machine when we're out for birds. I dearly love hunting with a good dog.

I filled my bear tag on a 9 mile trek in for 4 days trip. Missed my elk at 25 yards, arrow hit a twig. No deer.

2018 blacktail with a Weatherby .270. I plan to try with a bow this year.

I did not do so good hunting and fishing in 2018.

Only caught one salmon at the Nisqually river, did not see any deer , the only elk I saw was in the back of someones truck, only shot two ducks.

My season did not go so well, however I did enjoy being out in the woods.
