Yep, I must admit the end result is not really the important bit for me. Dog did good and that's enough.Quote:

dear ngai tahu and doc please hurry up and open lake ellesmere/te waihora i so dislike shooting geese in sewage coloured crap water and swan leavins
Your catch today could make a fantastic dinner. For me small game means better taste. In Chinese culinary, we say the best meat is from sky, water and those jumping on the grass.Quote:

Good day with Spence on Saturday, managed to bag our limits. Little .410 is a surprisingly effective gun. Bismuth #4 definitely aren't quite as good as the lead #6 were.

Quite a few of us had reservations on what the day would bring in the Manawatu, turned out pretty darn good. 38 for the weekend, some good shots from the boys and some good dog work too. Even my 13yo Lab Rocco was getting some good retrieves in. I really thought last year would be it, but new steroid injections for his arthritis worked wonders.

Best opening yet for us down south on the public water, managed to get our limit on Saturday by 11:30 and then for the first time ever a Sunday limit by 1:30 with better decoying birds than Saturday, an absolutely amazing weekend had, bring on the rest of the season!
