Honesty didn't think he would even hear me as was just using my voice. He disappeared and what seemed only minutes later was looking at me like that picture!! He made noises at me that weren't very friendly sounding! It was still a couple weeks before season and I was scouting, so no gun! They are really big when up front and personal with an annoyed attitude! Got one 3 weeks later, 838#. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cold Lake Kid, SASS # 51474 Posted November 30 Author Share Posted November 30 Bob M. one of my hunting pards called in a cow moose when we hunting bulls. (No cow tags) He kept "talking" to it and she hung around him until he started to finally walk away. She was giving soft grunts and he would answer. Bob walked up the shoreline of the river to where another of our group was watching and asked: "Wade, she followed me home. Can I keep her?" This was her, Marcia Moose, when she recrossed in front of my watch. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
watab kid Posted November 30 Share Posted November 30 my daughter and i came into an area exactly like that in the boundary waters decades ago and saw exactly that - not something you want to get too close to in a canoe full of gear you need so we kept our distance and watched a while 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fun is all over once someone pulls the trigger. We had a rule that there were some areas where we just did not hunt, even if we knew there was a good chance of tagging out. Hunting moose close to where you can get a 4 wheeler or a boat is the way to go. Carrying out commercial cuts of moose on a pack frame gets tiring and sometimes, if you fall, you can't get back up without help. Ask me how I know!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
