Only got one, the rest of the wankers locked themselves in the ute.
Heard my neighbor saying yesterday though what a good opening morning they had though, drunk 7 24 packs between them. The only thing I had to throw was my good tourqe wrench though, so he got away with it.:tugger:

Ducks are known as beach chickens where we camp.

They should lose their firearms licence and their weapons if caught with alcohol

There would not be many duckshooters left in southland if you went and breathelized every shooter in every mamai. Seems like it is just an excuse to get on the piss, not to show how brave you are by shooting ducks.:innocent:

A couple of shots of good quality whiskey on a cold winters morning is no sin. More than that and yep, no shooting for them, is how it should be.
The reason for having a duck shooting season at all,is to cull the many thousands of them that clog our water ways and make already stagnant streams and ponds into simple, duck shit sewers.
There are many species of duck and there are limits on most of them.
Haven't heard of a duck hunter being prosecuted for having too many of the wrong sort of duck in their bag for quite some time.
Using floating rat traps, yes,cutting holes in the floor of their cars and dropping bread to bring ducks to them,yes.
Lots of people from all different sorts of walks of life go out and shoot ducks to help maintain a sustainable population.
Many don't eat duck, but their bag almost never goes to waste and they get to go out on the land and help conserve our country's waterways from what is considered a plague of flying pests.
So far, no news of an opening day incident, off to a good start ladies and gentleman.
No news of any duck lovers spoiling the day for shooters either, now that's a bonus. Damned dangerous having people wandering about in the early morning fog waving their arms about and acting like ducks, Christ, they could get shot.
Dunno.
Was firing 12g solid slugs today at "other" targets...
Have you tried Pukeko?
A different flavoured gumboot?

Heh, well that doesn't look good for a start then.
I have heard that pukes taste like shit, plenty of them about and no one eats them that I am aware of?

Yeah, due to there being plenty around (in some places pest quantities) I was just wondering if you'd eaten any.

A couple of Canada geese. Very few ducks where we were. I'm a shit shotgun shot so the ducks would've been able to see another day but the geese they're very hard to miss.
