    Do you bother with the spring bear hunt there Ted?

    Hey Ted for turkey and speed goats have u looked into heading south, I am sure I heard Montanna has fairly open draws / tags for a lot of species for non US residents and Canadians, might work out cheaper.

    Fair play Ted I assumed it was the winters slowing the breeding rate down here, but if u seen a sow with piglets in Jan i guess not. Hopefully they head west from you, I'm in Sherwood Park.?

    I've been in alberta nearly 6 years and have seen one in that time, I agree they are a challenge. There is a few isolated spots with them but the people in the know keep it to themselves. I don't think they are the problem here they are in the States, to many wolves and the cold winters limits breeding. The word was that very few people claimed the bounty

    Apparently Google Chrome and Foxfire have found a way to access the photos that Photobucket.com does not now allow you to post to 3rd party sites anymore without paying a high price. In the cases where former/current PhotoBucket users haven't deleted all their albums, Chrome and Firefox now have an extension, Photobucket Embed Fix, that will display 3rd party hosted images. It will fix all your broken pics, no need for you to do anything, it runs entirely in the background.

    On A Bear Hunt

    gazjon5 replied to socks's topic in General Talk

    One of the biggest grizzlies every shot was taken with a 22 Long, (it would not be my choice of caliber ) https://www.google.ca/search?q=bella+twin+record+grizzly&oq=bella+twin+record+grizzly&aqs=chrome..69i57.9178j0j8&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

    There is a few lads from this site (Wirral Sea Fishing) that have been going for the last couple of years I think, they seem to do well, lots of variety and big fish possible from the shore. http://www.wirralseafishing.co.uk/forum/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?f=57&t=30802 Gaz Edited to add, they have had some great fish from over there, search the site to find his other reports.

    Here in Alberta, (Canada) you have to hunt with a guide or hunter host. No requirement on the host been a relative though. So long as they are a Alberta resident and hold a valid hunting licence I believe you are ok. You have to pay more and you can only hunt on general tags for animals the locals dont have to enter draws for, but there is huge areas of crown land where you do not need permission. There is a chance of black bear, whitetail and mule deer, elk, moose, wolf and coyote. None would be easy and would involve travelling away from the major cities and towns, to areas with limited ac

    Move every 1/2 hour or 40 mins as well, you will find stretches with very few and stretches where they and the bait fish congregate.

    Great vids mate

    Jeremy wade has caught big sturgeon (around 10ft from memory) from both the Fraser and Colombia rivers.I think the Columbia River (USA) was shown one of his episodes.

    Over here it was aired on Wild TV, I run kodi on an android box and have not seen that channel anywhere

    Not sure if you will get to see it or not in the uk, so not much help to you sorry, but watched most of the series here in Canada and to be honest, I much prefered his youtube channel. It wasn't bad viewing by any means, just not quite as raw and a bit more toned down than what he is normally like. Filming quality etc was better though

    I think a big part in bait choice is the hair rig. Before it was developed carp were seen as practically mythical and almost uncatchable. Using the hair rig turned carp fishing on its head, and using baits suited to it made perfect sense.

    http://m.liveleak.com/view?i=6ef_1461709070 Apparently 1910 footage of a Russian wolf hunt with dogs. Only short but quite good. Originally posted this in general discussion but probably better suited here.

    For prawns find a dock wall or pier, bait with fish and check it every 10 or 15 mins. Remove any prawns and crabbs, prawns will always be first to enter but once a crab enters or blocks the entrance no more prawn will go in. You can try setting at low water on a rock mark for crab and lobster but is not great. Be better if you have access to a boat and as mentioned fresh bait for crab, smelly for lobster is often favored. Edited to add those clapSable traps work fine for the prawn if used how I said, leave them in to long though or out in rough seas they will get ripped to shreds. Gaz.

    Awesome weeks fishing!

    I would also consider how snaggy the water is you are targeting. More snags I would go heavier so you can bully them a touch more, and a little more insurance if your line rubs against something. Trade off is reduced casting distance and I always feel less bites on the heavier mainline. Clear, open water lighten up, you will get more runs. Gaz

    Amazing catch, congrats. Personally I would have put it back, but they are very good to eat and your catch your choice! Almost certainly a very old fish, real shame they have declined so much.

    Check the bedding isn't damp / wet. Seen a couple go that way due to a leaking hutch...

    http://www.dailypost.co.uk/news/north-wales-news/anger-holyhead-breakwater-closed-traffic-8114212 it's been closed a while. Was a good venue for those needing easy access, can't help but think the constant litter, fires and fact it constantly stank of piss didn't do anything to make the owners believe it was worth leaving access to though.

    The cougars here (alberta, canada) grow over 200lb and their main prey is whitetail deer, which often weigh more than them. They have no issues dragging adult deer high up trees.It would take a very special dog to stand even a slim chance against a healthy adult cougar / puma / mountain lion IMHO.

    Qbgrey August u will have plenty of salmon species to go at and sturgeon in the Fraser. As mentioned find a tackle shop and enquire in there. As a non resident hunting options will be limited and expensive, only real option will be going with a guide which ain't cheap. PM me if u want more info. Gaz.
