Ebey island

[CuddlyBear]

Hey guys, does anyone here hunt ebey island? I know they release pheasant there but I was looking to do some rabbit hunting. That area tends to be a little swampy so I'm not sure what the prospects would be. Has anyone seen rabbits there or been successful hunting them? Any better suggestions in the Snohomish/lake Stevens area?

Ebey Island is a bit too wet for the small critters like Rabbits and a flood a few years back seems to have killed off most, if not all of the Deer. I suggest you contact the local Fish & Game Agent about what and where you might find critters.

Phesant release, eh?...anytime you wanna hunt those phesants, and you have a dog, let me know. I will be happy to come join you. =)

Well guys I went out today and definitely no rabbits. Stupidly I did not get my pheasant license because I jumped FIVE in under an hour just by mistake. They all would've been easy shots. Most of the guys hunting with dogs we're sticking to established paths and trails not seeming to be having a lot of luck, whereas I was walking right through crap up to my waist and almost within an arms length before they took flight. The weather was decent, a little foggy but it was a nice walk with a shotgun at least.

Yep, that's Ebey Island.

I hear you have to have a $80 license to hunt there. I was thinking about it. The money does go to a good cause.

Ducks, Geese and some Deer live on the Island but you should have at least Hip Boots because the Island is pretty wet this time of the year.
