What an enjoyable thread. Well done everyone.

I need to get out more.

 

[Superbrad]

Uhmmm... maybe a little more "give" than "take..." Friggin' pizza...

Got a tfal actifryer for sale on the ee..... Just sayin'..... Lol.....

I have to get back into game shape myself..... New job has too much desk riding for my liking......

Not a big fan of eating them so just don't bother chasing them.

Fair enough; they are good for sausage and jerky. And what a chase it is. Mallard hunting is new to me and a totally different sport.

I like the Skeena for some reason; but there are plenty of rivers to go around in that area.

So it can truly skip over stuff now.

Awesome; take that jet boats.

Don't let it give you a false sense of security with deadheads in the ocean...

conor your asking about sea ducks I have to say I do not know of anyone including myself that targets them here in BC.

 

[conor_90]

Really I have hunted them around the gulf islands and on VI in a few places. It is really my only tangible duck hunting experience, mallards continue to elude me.

They are very popular on the east coast and with FN's.

 

[Camp Cook]

Mallards and Canada geese are the local targets and all the hunters I know even stay away from mallards that feed in the local rivers due to them tasting like fish.

Come to Saskatchewan for a hunt. You'll get your fill of malkards and go away wondering "why did they seem so elusive back home?"

 

[conor_90]

You in the Lower Mainland/Fraser Valley Camp Cook?

Spank the mallards are "elusive" because of ineptitude I suspect. I think next year Canada Geese will be my target. The real question is "where are all these snow geese", I think you know the answer though.

 

[Camp Cook]

Yes

Never hunted snow geese but I understand you need to be in the Richmond area.

 

[conor_90]

I'm thinking The Spank knows a better Snow Geese hole than Richmond.

 

[Ardent]

No shortage of snow geese in region 7 certain times of the year... Rather an aviation hazard.

 

[conor_90]

Might have some work up there myself soon. Then I will be able to buy my own hunting boat.

 

[Ardent]

There still lots of work up here despite all the despair talk. Almost too much work, I was excited for the opportunity of a lifestyle change and a big pay cut to go straight outfitting while my boys are little... if anything work has become busier...

 

[Ardent]

OH... and every kind of boat is on sale here right now.

 

[conor_90]

^ same here; I had a gun sale myself recently!

Hopefully you are correct because I was signed on for 4 projects that fell through last year.

 

[Ardent]

Suppose it depends on the industry, one thing I've definitely noticed is the guys with papered skills are busy, the big chop happened in labour type jobs. Those folks also bought a disproportionate amount of toys, some good deals out there.

if people now are able to decipher me .... did i told you the mozz are our birds lol ....

 

[conor_90]

I am somewhere in between the two. Unless you mean trades like pipefitting as "paper skills"; I work as an archaeologist.

Not even about the money anymore; I just want to get back into the field.
