The Campfire

Welcome to the PrairieOutdoors Campfire. A place to tell your outdoor stories, show your fish pictures, hunting pictures, weave your tale of the big buck found in the woods, of shots taken and shots passed up. Tell of the day you dropped the grouse after all others missed and how you coaxed the flock of mallards back to the decoy spread for all to fire upon. Here, you are the story teller, and we all believe you. In the Campfire, the fish are as big you can make em and the fight as long as you want to stretch it.

Story: Reg Aupperle Saskatoon, SK October, 2000 Just got back from a morning field shoot with my golden retriever Bones.  We knocked down six big Canada’s but we only came home with 4. The four were adult birds and the largest weighing in at 10.5 pounds a good weight for this time of the year. I had four dozen shell decoys out and was using Super magnum decoy to hide in. I had some big Canada’s land only 20 yards from me so  it was a great morning. I called that flock right in and then missed with my first shot. I am once again not happy with the steel shot but I will have to get used to it. I knocked two more big birds down only to have them get up and fly away when the dog approached them the geese are not even well feathered yet. I am shooting the remington 3″ shells loaded with BB, I thought that it would have the knock down power I guess I was wrong with those two geese the other  three were stone dead. I had to ring one neck. I would like to hear from other people from Saskatchewan that have been out. I know that it is early but any info would be appreciated.
