Xman2000 Report post Posted March 30, 2013 Well I can only thank the good Lord for his tender Mercys and Favor!!!!! My wife and I drew #3001 september hunt in unit 1, 2b ,2c .The way I found out is I wanted to get the boat ready for the spawn so I went to Game and Fish today to renew my boat tags after getting off work and asked the sweet lady at the counter say? when do you think the elk results will be out she frowned a little and said we are hoping Monday or Tuesday after Easter.She said many people have come in saying there credit cards have been hit and I told her I always pay by money order and play it safe so I guess I"ll have to wait till Monday. She looked at me and said is this information on your boat regestration correct I said yes. So she looked up something on the computer smiled then wrote my hunt number down on a piece of paper #3001 and said congrats and Happy Easter!!!!!! when I looked up in the regs to make sure I realized it was our first choice in September!!! My wife had been putting in by herself and racking up points for about 7 years now and I said its time we put in together this year! I am so looking forward to spending this time with my my better half and best friend this year chaseing those heavy horned monsters!!!!! Any one else know for sure what unit?and congrats to all that are getting drawn on Monday!!!LOL!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

azmetalman Report post Posted March 30, 2013 #3001 would mean there were over 3,000 permits available for that hunt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bonecollector777 Report post Posted March 31, 2013 Metalman, he is referring to his hunt number. 3001 is the hunt number for Early Rifle Bull Unit 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tjhunt2 Report post Posted March 31, 2013 That's awesome! Congratulations on a great tag. Sounds like it's going to be a great year for ya. Good luck on the hunt and save a few fish for the rest of us. TJ ps.....been back out to the plant lately? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Xman2000 Report post Posted April 1, 2013 Ha ha Thanks TJ i love it nothing gets by you! We are very excited about this oppertunity!And now that most lakes are on fire all I can think about is Elk so I belive the Bass will be safe this season But possibly the trout might be in danger since it looks like I will be hitting unit 1 alot this season. Will try and sneek some sideline trout trips as well .Havent been to the plant since Dec I belive but was looking hard for your Chevy with that famous CW Sticker on it .We should hook up and go trout fishing In unit one between now and Sept and bring your glass those trout are hard to spot Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
