COUESAZ Report post Posted January 12, 2004 I have heard your friends need a permit to even go in the field with you on top of the camping permit but im not sure. someone let us know its a good thing to know. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
deserthunter23 Report post Posted January 12, 2004 wonder if a predator or lion tag counts for in the field ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ELKNUT Report post Posted January 12, 2004 You use to half to have a companion permit but they did away with them,a camping permit alos you to be at camp but not in the field,probably the best thing would be to cll them and ask ,because you don't want to get in any trouble over there and if someone says its ok to be in the field with a permit holder get it in writing because you will get checked.

Guest JHN Report post Posted January 13, 2004 I hunt the San Carlos somewhat and I am always dragging someone along with out a tag. As I had been told, the companion just needs the standard recreation permit ($7.00 per day). This allows you to camp, hike etc. If he wants to pack a weapon then they can get a predator license of some sort. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
deserthunter23 Report post Posted January 14, 2004 jh ,thanks ,its wed,3:00 pm Az time,just got off the phone with San Carlos game and fish,was told the companion can be in the field with a recreation permit to help with getting game out and glassing or whatever,they cannot hold or carry a weapon.......but if they have a predator or lion tag ,they can hunt that species during the same time,they still need a rec permit I think Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
COUESAZ Report post Posted January 14, 2004 ive never had much to do on the apache res. I have hunted alot up on the navajo . You say they told you dont need the companion permit and that is good to know. My thing now is if I think I need it on the res i get it. Up on the navajo we were archery hunting ( the biggest mule deer I have ever seen by the way). We had our bows in the bed of the truck. We were only going a few hundred yards down the road to pick up my brother in laws buck. and the navajo warden came up and pulled us over checked our tags, and saw the bows in open cases in the back of the truck. he gave us all a citation for hunting out of the back of the truck. there was four of us there. We were all up front in the cab. Then he said we had to each give him a hundred dollars or he would take our truck and bows for payment so we all said a hundred bucks is better and gav it to him and the four other game wardens that he radiod for help. We went by the tribal counsel on the way out of town to see if we could get our money back. They told us he is the law out there and could make his own choice for what he saw.Like I said in my life and on tv I have never seen so many book class bucks . That was 5 years ago and none of us have gone back again . So be sure on the res you even have the permits you think you might need. And dont pick up any sheds there eather my cousin picked up a partial elk drop that was about ten years old. and they busted him for obtaining animal parts on the res and that was in san carlos. Not saying you shouldnt hunt there , But saing be safe. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

backstrap Report post Posted September 21, 2004 Deserthunter23, well this is my first day on this site, and my first post. Seems like a bunch of good people... I drew a Nov tag for 31 and am now beginning all the research to hopefully get a look at my first coues... I have "bowhiked" the lower stuff for mulies, and am really looking forward to climbing up to some of the high stuff. Any tips would be hugely appreciated, my buddy and I are planning to get back in there for up to 5 days if needed. Hopefully my legs will take me... Anyway, like I said I sure would appreciate any info you're willing to give up and I'm looking forward to reading some more of this site. Thanks in advance, Peter Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
