Although final figures of hunter success and take will not be available until completion of the annual hunter questionnaire survey, the good results of the 19(B seasons are borne out by data collected by game biolo gists in all sections of the slate as they checked hunters in Ihe field through the seasons. BY THE AREA In Northwestern Oregon, Ihe general deer season was termed average although the hunter take may be down slightly in Ihe mid-Willamette area. The report here indicates that hunlcr suc cess was average with some areas down a point or two. The unit season opening was termed only fair but improved through the remainder of the season. Soulhcwcstern Oregon hunters also experienced good results as indicated by field checks through Ihe region. Some shift in hunter pressure was noted from Ihe Eden Ridge - Bone Mountain area inlo (lie Sixes area.

Paul Ebcrt, dis trict game agent at The Dalles, reports that in the Hood River area hunting pressure was light during most of the season. Hunt er success was also lighter than normal until toward the end of Ihe season when good results were obtained. Generally throughout the central area, hunter success was higher than last year. The Klamath county success was reported up at least 30 per cent over last year. In the southeast, Ellis Mason, district game biologist at Burns, reports hunter success fair through the season and very high during the last week throughout most of the district. Hunters who worked the roads were reported to have had little success as deer were distributed from high lo low elevations and exceptionally wild. There was a general decline in Ihe numbers of hunters throughout South eastern Oregon. THE ELK SEASON The elk season appears In have been a good one as evl deuced by field cheeks in pop. ula r elk hunting areas. Boh .lull her, district game biologist in Lane county, reports good re sults In the Cascade area, with more hunters beginning lo find and work Hie country. Along the south coast, llaiiild Slurgls, game agent at CoignlUc, reports the general season for bull elks comparable to or pos sibly higher than (he best of past seasons. Bull elk numbers taken from the Mlllicoma area were the highest ever recorded and reports from Ihe Eden Ridge country indicate hunter success and total kill both high er than normal for the area. Northeastern Oregon kills were from average to excellent, wilh (he Wcnaha area giving up a higher pcrccnlagc of 5-poinl f bulls than In previous years. SUMMING UP i After a run down on big game , seasons like that given above, there certainly is an optimistic note in the Game Commission 1 reports. We can only hope that the statistical survey isn't loo much more optimistic. The lack of noise at the close of the deer seasons would seem to indicate that most hunters were able to connect with a deer and aren't too concerned about deer man agement this year, but the conv mision would be wise to be con servative for a while yet. Let's hope hunter success stays up and the amateur biologists stay down. THE OPTIMIST S CORNER There are those who reminisce about the good old days when Ihe fish were so Ihlck Vnu could walk across the river on (heir backs, and yet Ihe fishing has steadily improved over Ihe past twenty years to such an extent that we might hone that some day wo, can share that walking experience.
