We ate beavertail once. It was DISGUSTING. Like a fat explosion in your mouth.
I thought they had never been shootable.
I not sure about other provinces but as far as I know we only have been able to legally shoot them since September 15,2021. Apparently other provinces have been able to hunt them for years as stated by some other members! It’s a lot of fun.

Just had a look at the regs, in the small game license section it says same as waterfowl season but in the varmint license section it says open March 1-Sept 17 2022 & March 1- Sept 23 in 2023 & no limit on them. I think you can still hunt them with a varmint permit.

That's just how it be in NB. Can even be fined target shooting (other than a range) if you ain't got a valid hunting permit, or a sight in permit. Yeah it's messed up.

Sounds about as yummy as seal flipper. Which I thought I escaped from this Nfld relatives "gifting" after I joined the army & posted west.
Alas! There were Nfld privates that pushed this upon me when they discovered in was born in NS.
It's some kind of regional torture.....
Sometimes I have nightmares about glass jars and seeing the boney skeleton of a seals flipper. Lol
Edit: gimme shark fin soup any day.....

We run two boats. Both camo of course and one has a blind built on it that folds up. It holds three hunters. The rest wear full camo and sit below the top so we don’t get skylined. Some of the islands have stone blinds which we use. Running the boat to pick up the carnage keeps one very busy.

Would need a missile to reach the nearest occupied yard site. Lol

Awesome decoy spread! I've never seen/heard of anyone using decoys for cormorants.. I shot the odd one when I lived back in NB, but usually out of boredom or opportunity. I generally don't participate in 'varmint control' but I understand the situation that's occurred in Ontario. Not an invasive species technically, but certainly one that's population has really exploded to the detriment of many.

My suspicion is that they would be a lot like badussy.
