Dakota Duck Waterfowl Counts

The state of South Dakota has fielded very high absolute duck game bird waterfowl counts. It seems that mallard ducks , bluewing teal , as well as gadwallsbirds – which are by far the most common breeders of the waterfowl birds , in the geographic regions in and around South Dakota – are at very high count values.

Next in line are “pond numbers” , which are yet again another critical index when it comes to waterfowl levels. It can be well said that with all the ducks in the state and good reports coming as well from North Dakota and Manitoba Canada as well as the various Canadian hunting regions that waterfowl biologists point to another excellent , exceptional hunting season afoot in 2009.

In South Dakota itself it can be said that there is more than enough room to hunt and for avid hunters to roam and enjoy their days shooting. The bulk of the waterfowl producing holes – and waterfowl producing areas are generally listed as being in the eastcentral , northcentral and northeastern parts of th state. There aer both state Game Protection Areas and federal waterfowl protection areas. Lastly areas scattered throughout the pothole country are finding that hunting pressure is relatively light that is once you get away from the major population centers and areas of population such as Sioux Falls and Watertown.

Innate Instincts of Game Animals During the Hunting Season

Do animals think ? While its true that most animals could not figure out how to repair a computer to just get it out the door yet animals seem to be able to think and have the uncanny abilities to escape us hunters. On top of that humans are descended from animal lines so it must not be far off that animals can think to a great degree. Anyone who has had a cat , dog hamster or bird can tell you that animals do think , can reason and to a great degree have emotions as well.

You may well have come across deer that know full well when the hunters are around – to stay out of the limelight during the day – and then when the hunters are safely drinking their Miller Lite beer with their buddies – and recounting the hunting tales of fame and legend – that never occurred in any way shape or form in their or their friend’s universe – for that same buck to come out of the shadows – safely – at dusk.

In the same way it is known on the outskirts of Winnipeg Manitoba Canada that waterfowl – be it ducks , mallard ducks or Canada geese seem to know instinctively when hunting season for waterfowl and waterbirds starts – to the exact day and date in the fall, and come gather within the city limits of Winnipeg , on the various ponds and municipal waterways - knowing full well the safety there from the hunters.

Lessons of calling to gobblers

Fall turkey can be best said to be its best reward , all in all , especially on the Lake Manitoba Fishing and hunting lodges regions. However it can be well said that lessons learnt well in October, can help you take that Manitoba prairie gobbler come next spring. Although the flocks break up during the mating season turkeys can be best said to operate in a pecking order , not unlike you might find in unionized courier drivers or union bosses in a bullshit shoot session . Jadran noted the first discovered the vital roles of the pecking order all in all one spring morning on the Narrows over twenty years ago.

This was when Lake Manitoba Narrows was relatively undiscovered and acted in the means of a leased hunting region – not unlike early Netley Marsh.

Transcona recalls “I was watching my brother call to a gobbler with a multitude of hens out in the fields. Marty was doing a really fine job and effort but the gobbler it seemed wanted to strutt to his hens. I was trying to figure out a way to best shoot my brother’s chosen bird or birds . It seemed then that pecking order , whether with your brother’s flock or the gobbler’s hens was the way to go. In the same way pecking order plays an important role in human interractions as well.

Just then a pair of toms appeared at the far end of the field and one yelped. My brother’s gobbler dropped out of the strut, ran to the end of the field. chased one bird off, beat the stuffing out of the other and then came back to his own hens.. I snuck around to that end of the field itself and made the very same gobbler yelp. Marty’s Tom then ran out straight towards me.

Strutting those Manitoba Turkey Gobblers

If your consicence or vanity does not permit you to shoot a bird or hen of the year, you can always be counted to call up a fat longbird. It can be said that hunters can shoot hens in the fall time simply because they can make acceptable hen calls, However on the other hand if you wish to shoot fall longbeard then you have to employ and use “gobbler talk” well.

Goblers “yelps” can be said to not always sound like the traditional long , low croaks that you can hear in avid outdoorsmen tournaments and conferences in gobbling contests or on instructional tapes. Actually they are most similar to hen yelps but each call is “drawn” out and gobblers can be said to call at a slower cadence rate. Like hens, gobblers will also putt and cutt when they are excited. For gobbler calling, a call can be used with a clear as well as somewhat “raspy” tone and tones.

Spring hunters can be called on to know well , that gobblers will be near and nearby to hens. However come the Mantioba falltime and this may not be so. Gobblers can be said to be little different than mature whitetails. These keep to themselves. It can be said by experienced Lake Manitoba Hunting Lodges outdoorsman Jadran Transcona that come the Manitoba Canada falltime you will not fiind longbeards in the same places and locales that you would expect to see hens , jakes as well as poults.

Fall gobbler hunters should look for 4 to 4 1/2 inch tracks , big droppings and black edged breast feathers. Find the roost and their food source, and get in between them on the bird’s line of travel. It can be said that if you are pushy enough on the call, six or seven mature gobblers might just take a run at you, beards swinging ready for the big time fight. Make them really mad and angry and they can be sure counted on to be strutting and gobling as they come on strong.

Crashing on a Rifle Scope

You slip on a sidehill and to crashing down on the rocks with your rifle underneath you. The scope is badly damaged and gouged and is obviously took a whallop of a hit – bigger than if some hoodlum stole 2 laptops. You are now faced with a choice or choices. You can assume that the scope has not been knocked out of whack and continue to hunt. or you can fire your rifle to check its zero and risk spooking any game around . What is a wise and recommended course of action ?

The experienced Lake Manitoba Canada outdoorsman J. Transcona recommends that a good scope can take an awful course of abuse and still hold its adjustment. Still it is not worth assuming that this is the case. Pick a spot – a few inches off a dead tree, pace off 25 yards, and fire a single shot. If you are “zeroed’ to hit 3 inches high at 100 yards , the shot should to 1 inch at 25. If that checks out and the windage is still okay , then keep hunting at Lake Manitoba Narrows. If the bullet goes high or wide – then it is back to the hunting Lodge or camp at the narrows to rezero. Do not worry about inadvertently spooking game with your shot. Jadran remarks that he has personally watched “critters” react to a nearby gunshot. The animals and game will pick up their heads, listen and sniff or a moment , a minute or two and then go about their business. Its all in a days hunting.

Chambering a Stuck Rifle Cartridge

What to do when a situation occurs whereby you try to chamber a cartridge but it sticks on the way in ?

What would an experienced outsdoorsmen / Lake Manitoba “Outdoorsman” such as Jadran Trascona advise and as well as recommend ?

Mr. Transcona advises to stop on the spot. You are about to get into very bad trouble – all preventable. You may well a cartridge of the wrong designation and if you do get it into the chamber and pull the trigger…

Barring that , there is most likely and probably grit or snow on the cartridge or if you handload. you neck-sized your ammo, and the brass fits somewhat too tight. When hand loading your ammo Jadran recommends always full size length your reloads.

If you do jam the sticky cartridges into the chamber, the chances are more than excellent that you will not be able to get it out again. If this happens and you are certain that it is not the wrong sized round that is at fault, fire the cartridge, and see if the case will eject. ( Should you get the wrong load stuck in the chamber , do not shoot. Lift the bolt and get the rifle to a gunsmith. If it is really stuck. the ejector will slip off the case rim. or cut through it. and where you are with a useless rifle.

Do not try to get the empty out by ramming a stick down the barrel. You are going to need a cleaning rod, either one-piece or takedown, but in either place strong. Open the bolt ,place the butt of the rifle on floor, and drop the cleaning rod down the barrel. This is often enough to dislodge, even a badly stuck shell. If that does not do it, rap the roll handle smartly. If that is not enough, run oil down the bore, give it a few minutes to work its way down the case and rap the rod yet again. If this fails then you are out of business. If time to to go gunsmith, who will run a tap into the shell and screw it out.

Never ever try to get a live round out of a chamber by banging on it with a cleaning rod. There are cases reported where this detonated the cartridge and the shell came flying out of the breech with enough force to kill anyone standing behind it. If you get a live round stuck and cannot fire it safely , open the action, make sure it stays open , and promptly go visit a locksmith.

Residue in the Bolt of Your Hunting Rifle

Next in step – if you hear a second clunk it means that your firing pin is the culprit and problem because as in getting two bad laptops in a row are against the odds of life , two bad ….. is just as unlikely.

All in all you must deal with the situation on hand and in hand. Most likely the problem is accumulated grime and even “gunk” inside the bolt and bolt area of the hunting rifle itself. When the weather gets good and cold, the dirt , grime , and accumulated residues and gunk can harden and impede a or the firing pin. Try that in a good Manitoba Prairie winter. Hardened in the cold this stuff can harden and impede the firing pin.

The way to remove it ( assuming that you have a bolt action hunting rifle). is to take the bolt out of the receiver of the hunting rifle, unscrew the firing pin assembly , and clean the accumulated , cold hardened “crud” out of the bolt’s interior with powder , solvent, white gas or whatever grease cutter that you have available on hand. De-gunk the firing pin and firing pin spring and that should do it. If you are using a lever pump or auto. you are totally out of luck until you can get to a locksmith, which is more than an excellent reason to take your lever, pump or auto to a gunsmith before hunting season and have him strip-clean the instrument.

Hunting Trips – Events Common Mishaps and Mistakes

As you read this you are probably about ready to go hunting , are thinking of hunting or planning a hunting trip or trips. This may be your year to make the trek to our” neighbors to the North” and even to the wilds of Lake Manitoba and the interlake Lake Manitoba Narrows regions.

This may well be the year of your dreams that everything goes according to your plans and your script, or it may be a year of hunting and hunting trip no shows and disasters with poor hunting results at the end of the day or end of the trip.

To avoid this hideous trap of bad events here are some of the more common mishaps to watch out for :

1) You pull the trigger and instead of a “bang” sound you hear think. Most likely you either have a dud primer or the primer is good but your firing pin as not struck it hard enough to set it off.

- count to ten slowly. You may have a hangfire , and if the round goes off with the bolt open ,deer hungting or duck hunting will be the furthest thing from your mind. Eject the cartridge, rack in a new one, and pull the trigger again. There is no use resnapping on the dud, because if the fault is with the primer, it very unlikely at all that a second firing of the firing pin , will set it off.
