Thanksgiving Crane
Little Creek Calls posted a topic in Small Game, Upland Bird, and Waterfowl Hunting
I had the opportunity to hunt sandhill crane with my dad just before Thanksgiving. Had a great time and we were both able to get all of our birds. Made it back home Thanksgiving afternoon and had crane for dinner Thursday night. Had the normal Thanksgiving dinner on Friday with the family. The crane turned out better than expected, it really is the ribeye of the sky.- 16 replies

Thanksgiving Crane

Treat them like a nice beef steak only add a little oil or butter because they don't have any fat. Cook them hot and fast, Just don't over cook them and dry them out. You won't be disappointed. -

Iron sights coues deer, pretty impressive. -
I quit buying Levi's a few years back when they changed the style or cut of their 569 loose fit to low rise tight thigh jeans. Carhartt and Cinch for me now.

We sit the large pivots to hide our outline then we don't have to deal with ground blinds. We have full decoys and use calls to draw draw their attention to the decoys. We try to hunt cut corn fields the preferred food of choice for the cranes. It took us 2 years to figure it out (best setup of decoys and when to shoot) but we are pretty good at it now. This year the overall numbers of birds was way down from last year, I assume because the warm fall up north and they just haven't migrated in fully yet. I talked to farmers in all the different areas before the hunt and everyone said the same thing "the birds haven't showed up yet." -

Pictures? Removable or fixed chokes? Where are you located? -
Looks like game and fish should revise their description.
-
If you look on the game and fish website in hunting\game species\bison it says "Bison are also capable of jumping over 6 foot high fences without touching the fence."

2 weeks until they start charging cards
Little Creek Calls replied to Couestracker's topic in Turkeys!
Should only be one more week. The deadline to update cards is Thursday 11/4. -
California king snake. Good one to keep around, they eat rattlesnakes. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LdCozo_Ub_Q

This has been fun so I will join in.

One last lake for guessing to help the afternoon go by a little faster.
-
That's right, west fork of the black around 2 miles in from Thompson crossing.

Not the little Colorado. Here is another picture taken a little ways down stream. A little side note from this trip, we ran into a collared wolf chasing a spike elk on the way out. First time I have ever seen the tongue hanging out of the mouth of a live elk.

How about this one taken a few years back.
-
It is hurricane. Stay tuned for more fishing pictures tomorrow.

Nope. This is a great lake to catch Apache trout.

Not Christmas Tree but you are on the right reservation.

Kaibab archery Cow Buffalo - aug 12th---25th
Little Creek Calls replied to azpredator@work's topic in Buffalo Hunting
I know how you feel. I quit putting in for the 12A hunts a few years back when I first started hearing some of these type of stories and started only putting in for Raymond ranch hunts. Sure going out with the department employee and having them designate the animal to harvested at Raymond ranch doesn’t sound all that sporting but neither does being told what blind to sit in for 2 weeks and never seeing a bison and eating the cost of the tag. At least with the Raymond ranch it will only take one day and you know you will fill your tag. I am glad my Dad and I went to Montana and hunted them on one of Ted Turner’s ranches 15 years ago before the price went up too much. Sure it wasn’t that much different than what happens now here in AZ but it was still fun and the meat was great. That experience is what keeps me still putting for the Raymond ranch heard and I still hope that someday rules will change with the national park and it will return to more of a hunt again. -
I will take one. Not to far for me. Can't wait to try the fresh local honey.

Looks like you can sell them on ebay but they are "dead, dried and clean". your beetles are eastern hercules rhinoceros horned beetle. If you do keep them as pets adult males can live 2-3 years.
-
To bad you dont live in Japan, you could make some extra cash selling them as pets. This one in this picture is around $40.
-
To bad you weren't wearing a gopro, that would have been great to watch. Interesting how similar it is to the bear skull, I might have guessed a bear cub if I was looking at them side by side. You would think the front of the skulls would come to more of a point in seeing them and looking at the picture from your tailgate.

Kaibab and meat processing/taxidermy suggestions
Little Creek Calls replied to bigmuleyfan's topic in Mule Deer Hunting
I like Russell Buckley in Panguitch, Utah (435-676-2759). Panguitch is a little over an hour north of Fredonia up Hwy 89. -
LaCortis (928) 643-6126. My dad took his antelope from 13A there and he did a good job. He was recommended by the unit manager. Had a clean shop with lots of options for sausage and jerky.
