The Regs for Moose Hunting in 9E

By Link

Unit 9E

You have to be 16 and have a tag to shoot a moose on your own. You can also shoot a moose if you are under age if you’re listed on your parent’s tag.

In hunting unit 9E we have from Port Moller to South Naknek all along the peninsula to hunt moose. We can go to a different place to hunt but we will need a different hunting tag. In my area we can shoot one bull but it must have a spike fork, or have 50-inch wide antlers, or have three or more brow tines.

           

According to Meghan Riley, a Fish and Game worker in King Salmon, in December there was 197 moose between Black Lake and Meshik: 56 bulls and 141 cows and calves.  That is good news for hunters. Fish and Game hopes to count at least 40 bulls for every 100 cows in 9E. For the 2010 survey year they counted 60 bulls for every 100 cows.

I hear that Black Lake and Meshik are the best places to go hunting for moose. There are some big bulls in Black Lake. I would like to go to Black Lake so I can shoot a moose.

If you are ever over by Black Lake or Meshik, make sure you have a moose tag. If you get one, bring it in to town and we will barbecue it for you. We make the best barbecue moose in all the villages!
