Before the deep freeze!

Used the last two days in the 30's to pull a few in up in the Longville area at a buddies cabin. Biggest was 13" 

Time to eat crappie chips and stay warm for the next 3 days.  -23 below up here Monday night!

 i actually dont mind eating duck...like goose more better though!!!!

I don't bring them back, eat a lot then clean them for the village. Some like them plucked and some like the breasts cut out. It's really remote where I go and the locals live off the land. I know they want me to go get some doves for them too. My buddy is a local so we'll probably go get a deer as well for some venison for some of the elders in the community

Awesome kind of trip!

I figured there would be a local benefit if you couldn’t bring them back (not saying you can’t).  Having a connection down there is pretty cool!

 

We donated a good share of meat to the village in Kotzebue, AK instead of shipping it all back.  Pretty pricey and they really appreciated it.  Win/win.

The locals there shoot ducks but don't hunt them. If they see a bunch on a pond they'll sneak up and water swat them but it's strictly for food not sport.

My buddy runs an outfitter so him and I will hunt a few days and scout then I'll help him with a group whose coming mid week. He's from there. Hoping he can come to Canada next year with me. He's never seen or shot a goose

Ok, how did we get from crappies and freezing temps to pond slime eaters in south America?  Focus!  

[Wanderer]

Central America.

 

Focus.

 

We almost went for a local overnight crappie run but the daughter’s septic froze so I got to work the brown trout pond through a 4 inch hole.  

It was opener today afterall.
