The other weekend I got out with the kids to black rock which is a local snapper haunt to try and chase some big snapper and pinkies. Was...

    Salt water fun with the kids

    On holiday with the family after a 2000km drive to queensland from Melbourne. Decided to try our luck in the local waterways, grabbed the boys and stopped at a bridge just before our hotel and we walked down to the pylons and chucked out their rods with prawns. Didn't take long and the bites...

    Australia duck opening fun

    Here in Australia our duck season starts on a Wednesday which are ruled out for me with work but Saturday it was on. Rang my local farmer and teed up a few of the boys for some dam and river jumping. A lazy 8am start and the first few dams surprisingly held nothing. Then slowly started picking...

    Catching fish in the new boat

    Well the weather gods were better to me this weekend and in the morning had a session with fishing pro on using the new boat properly which was great. Showed me some things I never new and was great. He is a keen hunter as well which was good to find out. Shot out to 18 meters to give the boat...

    Got a new boat

    So after a month my new boat was ready. Quintrex 430 fishabout pro. Upgraded to a 60 and the braked trailer. Was a dream to tow. Also got the tonneau Cover. Picked probably the worst day in Vic to put it on the water with 100kph wind warnings so just did a quick lap of the canals at Patto with...

    Fox and fallow success

    Went out for a spotlight last night on a farm I have access to and came across a den of young fox pups in an area of about 100m and managed to shoot 3 that I saw. Only about a foot long in total size they obviously hadn't had much shooting interaction as the last one was just curled up sitting...

    No fish left in the ocean

    Day I nearly drowned when hunting

    Its amazing how you look back on hunting moments that can define yourself for better and worse. One of the worse moments in my hunting career came when i was about 20 years old and thought nothing could hurt me. Some background: Hound hunting for deer takes you through all sorts of country...

    who carries a chainsaw?

    So I have been watching lots of YouTube vids on guys going elk and deer hunting and noticed that it appears most of the guys who drive up into the hills dont carry a chainsaw? Is this correct or just magic editing ? Down here in Aus it's pretty much a standard thing to carry when going bush...

    Ask an Aussie Hunter any question!

    So thought I would put up a post to ask an Aussie Hunter anything you like. Things such as what you can hunt, how much it costs, what it's like to get around, what else can you do etc. Your hunting processes with tag systems etc are very different to here so ask away and I will be happy to...

    Based in Australia and looking for some help on narrowing down states that allow elk hunting (rifle) that isn't going to be in freezing cold / snow conditions, watching some of Randys videos, places like Nevada and New Mexico seem to stand out as being on the warmer side?
