Re: Migratory (and resident) Waterfowl Management
Very well said, I know out here, its a lot easier for access as its mainly farm land, but the closer to get the vancouver it just gets more and more private and no shoot zones. I know our geese will sometimes or mostly stay in a field just off the roost and its a no shoot zone, even though its about a 100 acre field with no houses nearby but you cant hunt it so the geese cant get hunted at all. So they go the roost, and then jump out and go to a no shoot zone, theres no fields near you can pull them off it, I know the last few years during late season they do this, so it puts a huge damper on our hunting I they decide not to come look at other fields. I know people have hunted the no shoot zone before but we're not risking it and even have permission to hunt the field but city says you cant. I believe the same sort of situation is with the snow geese, they come off their roost and most times head into no shoot richmond or to westham island where they can be shot.
1st Im in charge, and if not Matt is. Your job is to sign checks, tell us we're doing good and open your case of scotch after a good day. 2nd my fee. You can keep it, all I want in exchange for my service is the right to hunt all the drakes. A male. Buck only. Why and how are my business. If you don't like it, go alone. Set up right here or in a swamp or in the middle of a noshoot field for all I care. I've been on too many duck hunts with rich dentists to listen to any more suicidal ideas. Ok?
