Guided for an Outfitter there. We leased private lands in the Colestrip area. Some block management in the area we were in .
Where in 700 are you hunting ?

I know the breaks well. That being said they cover a bunch of country. Private land is hard to get permission to hunt . It is leased to outfitters so provides income

to the owner. There is the Musselshell side,and then the Missouri side. Some people use boats because the lake side is all public land.

Fort Peck Lake is a very dangerous lake. Do not try to use small boats. It can be calm one minute and roaring waves the next. It will take homework to find a spot .

Huntershooter58: Your welcome ! Randy Newberg as well as others have hunts in the Missouri Breaks on You tube.com I had a FB friend " Big Jim" from Bowsite.com who had a cabin/hunting home there, and he had hunted there many years, but he died a few years ago. He actually died there on his last hunt. Sorry I can't be more help. HH

HH,
Not a problem, as I am able to accumulate a fair amount of knowledge, as My Son and His Hunting Buddy will hit that Area the end of this week on Friday!

Bow hunting for Elk is their plan, as they were able to draw some pretty hard to draw tags!

They have an Outfitter Familiar with that area for 20 yrs. and were able to set up 2 one on one Hunts!

Not sure on the Pic part, but we'll see.

He's sending me info on the hunt using the Sat phone, so were limited, Phone service isn't good where he's at!

Besides that, I'm still learning how to get these pics on this sight, as I was able to follow the Forum instructions,
and got a pic of the Mule deer in Velvet he shot last month in Nevada, but haven't figured out how to get the pic from there, and transferred any where else!

So I just got a message from him saying that they got into a herd with one nice Herd Bull, and two Smaller, peripheral Bulls, one Non-Typical, this Morning!

Got Terribly busy and missed some time on here!
So the Fourth Day, they were chasing a nice Bull up and Down some Canyons, and continued that into the,
5th Day, Passing on a Smaller, yet Nice Bull, within Bow Range!

Hard Work, Hard Hunting, a little grueling at Times, But Very Enjoyable out in the Wild!

Got a Text a few Hrs ago, "HIT ONE", Thinking his Shot was High, and Fore Ward!
Waited a couple Hrs, "5x5 Bull Down"!

Waiting for Pics and More Info!!!
