he's a little more stable to the ground. Wouldn't want to wrestle him.

That’s an interesting and accurate way to describe some people.  I don’t think I’d want to wrestle him either!

Never tried hunting them but I drove 95 over to Princeton today and the Sandhills are flying everywhere right now. Flocks in fields!  Heard they taste like chicken?  :P

Pretty similar to tenderloin on a deer

I'd try a crane.  No hunting season around me though so it may not ever happen.

 

I'm skeptical of it tasting like ribeye or a tenderloin.

I'd take a beef ribeye or beef tenderloin over crane any day. It's similar to venison and the only waterfowl i eat with just salt and pepper. When cleaning them it smells more like a pheasant than a duck or goose, not nearly as pungent. Just so fun to watch em fly, they are prehistoric looking.

Fished tonight with a retired buddy and sent him home with 6, water Temps around 67 degrees. Jig and minnow. Hard to leave to go waterfowl hunting with the walleye biting

When you set up your deks for crane in the pond, do you ever get Turkeys landing in the set?  :P

We feild hunt for them, lot of time it's figuring out their route from water to feilds and pass shooting as they don't fly high off the ground. No turkey where we go. Do normally see a moose or two. Have had coyotes come in and try and steal decoys tho

Plus he’s always looking for someplace to sluice a turkey. 😉 

 

Oh I don't think I have any problems finding nice birds.  It is fun "sluicing"  though!  ;)

Nope them are from climbing the great mounts of Houston, MN.  That's why sluicing some flat land meat birds is preferred!  :P

I found paperwork,  it's a 2018. But it's had a starter and fuel pump replaced under warranty.  Brother thinks it was due to the brake clutch getting hot

Lots of fires start on fuel injected units that get a leak in fuel lines or fittings and keep pumping fuel on the hot motor and exhaust.
