Congrats on your bird Rat! Would love to stick one in the oven bag too. Amazing how they come out, but not in the cards this year for me.
I spent the past weekend scouting the Hoist Lake Foot Trail area for Monday's hunt. Although I've never been there, I've taken birds in the surrounding area before so thought for sure there would be some action in this area. The area is approximately a 4.5 square mile area that is only accessed by foot. Was I fooled, as I never heard a bird or saw any sign whatsoever. Oh well, humped the trails to Penoyer Lake which is about in the center of this track of old growth forest. Set up camp overlooking the lake with an awesome view. Spent the entire Sunday walking the trails and calling and searching for sign to no avail. Non the less, I enjoyed some beautiful weather, and some peace and quiet with a good friend that joined in at the 11th hour. Will now look forward to calling in some local birds for my son and daughter during the 234 hunt.
It's all good!
