CuzTheyFly Posted February 24, 2006 Report Share Posted February 24, 2006 Are there any Quail Hunters in here, if so how was your season? Got any pics? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huntinsonovagun Posted February 24, 2006 Report Share Posted February 24, 2006 Re: Quail Hunting I should have some footage up in the next week or so. Of course the ones we hunted were released birds our clients didn't get, but it's still fun and we still had to hunt for them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smallmunster Posted February 24, 2006 Report Share Posted February 24, 2006 Re: Quail Hunting We only managed two quail here this year, but were were pheasant hunting and just managed to run into some. We only saw two coveys this year and both were within two miles and 30 minutes of each other. Granted I don't hunt many fencelines or woody ditches or I am sure we could have found some more. Nice picture by the way! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tominator Posted February 24, 2006 Report Share Posted February 24, 2006 Re: Quail Hunting The winters of 1977 and 78 pretty much wiped out our huntable populations of our wild birds. I see and hear them every now and then, and the state DNR is trying to re-establish them, so we'll see. There's still a season of them in select Ohio counties, mostly south and east of me.

huntinsonovagun Posted February 25, 2006 Report Share Posted February 25, 2006 Re: Quail Hunting I got a few pictures this morning. None all that good. Spent most of the time videoing instead of doing still shots. I'll try to get an edited version up sometime in the near future. We've got some decent video... Here's Sprig and Babe This is Sprig with a retrieved bird, and my buddy Shane. Here's Babe Shane and Babe Last one of Babe Didn't really have an opportunity at an action shot, as these aren't our best dogs, and don't hold point for a real long time. One of these days I'll get out with Gaddie (who is worth 3 times+ as much as my truck) She's amazing! Sprig is Shane's dog (and only about a year old), and is finally starting to point, but doesn't hold long at all...he's definatly getting a LOT better....even in the past week!! I'll try to get the video up soon..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

huntinsonovagun Posted February 25, 2006 Report Share Posted February 25, 2006 Re: Quail Hunting Tominator- Better send that one in! It's a good'en! We only took the two dogs out this morning because Shane was guiding another hunt this afternoon...didn't want to wear 'em all out. I think we'd have done better with another dog. Still so fun to watch them work though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tominator Posted February 25, 2006 Report Share Posted February 25, 2006 Re: Quail Hunting [ QUOTE ] Still so fun to watch them work though! [/ QUOTE ] Got that right Ryan. I could literally just watch the dog and have just as much fun. I used to do it all the time out back when I had a dog. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
