Ok. Will work on those between now and February.

Sorry, can't do that one. Ask him about a cinnamon teal flank?

If there's anything missing from his wish list let me know and I can probably help out.

Sticky mud tip...Wear stocking foot waders with no boots. You run the risk of punctures depending on the bottom but you can move soooo much easier.

I've got a buddy getting started in the decoy business wanting someone to carve a goose decoy for him. It will be used to create a mold for a new kind of full body goose decoy. Needs it done in 60 days. Anyone capable and interested?

I'm south of you in Central CA. We had a fabulous year. Drought conditions concentrated the birds and limits were the norm. Had many days that two guys could have shot 20-30 and maybe even 40 cans! But I'm expecting a tougher year now that there is a lot more water around.

If you don't find any near home, let me know. I've got a lot of rancher buddies and can make few calls and pretty sure I could find them as long as you're not in a huge hurry.

I hunted chukar and huns in the Hells Canyon many years ago. Was a great time.

As one of the few if not the only Californian on this site, I feel uniquely qualified to make this call. Not only was the bird in CA, but it was in the Bay Area. That's the land of freaks, fruitcakes, freaks, etc. That goose may have been nothing more than a speck trying to dress up like a...

Not too far from the Eagles Nest, in Austria, is a cool pedestrian bridge. I was there last year and they had a medieval fair below it which was a lot of fun. Food, drink, jousting, lots of home made leather crafts, woodworking, iron working, etc. Most people were dressed in era appropriate...

Maybe I've just been lucky but I've hung ducks on the garage wall for up to 8 days with guts still in them. Never looked to see if entrails were punctured. I routinely hang them a couple days or throw them in the fridge, guts and all for 2-7 days with no regard to entrail puntures. Then I...

You make very good points that are hard for me to refute with my limited knowledge on the topic. However, I and many other routinely hang unplucked and ungutted birds or throw them in the fridge 3-7 days prior to cleaning. I know of no one who has ever gotten sick after eating these birds...

Do you want pintails too? Cans or gw teal?

I doubt I'll shoot a couple dozen more wigeon in the last two weeks of the season but I'll save all of them for you :-)

How many do you want? Do I need to separate right from left when I pull them?

That's happened to me a couple times before with a hawk and I just popped off a couple rounds in his direction and solved the problem. Once it scared him before he got it and the other time he dropped it and flew off.

Funny you should bring Hank up. I met him on a goose hunt in northern CA last week. Had a great time and there were geese everywhere! He was great to hunt with and incredibly knowledgeable when it came to cooking game. If you want a new buffie recipe, fillet the breast off the bone...

If you're willing to drive to Humboldt, I know a guide that does real well on them.

Your analysis is wrong - duck meat is very cheap. Your only cost is the cost of the shell that kills the bird. All other expenses are part of your entertainment budget. It's like if you took the family to Disneyworld for a few days and spent a couple thousand on airfare, another thousand on...

If your wallet is thin, the Savage is great rifle for the money. But if your wallet is a little thicker, look into the Anschutz. Probably triple the money but oh man is it a nice rifle!
