I have been to Insula, Alica, and Fishdance several times. You just gave me a whole new reason to go even later in the season than normal! Although I hunt both ducks and grouse it never occurred to me to do so there.
It certainly wasn’t easy, but as you can tell I hardly ever do anything the easy way! I love hunting the backcountry on these remote lakes-always an adventure
We took the orange off when we were in the blind. Since we were jump-shooting in a wilderness area with others likely nearby who weren’t hunting, we wanted to wear the orange to let others know we were hunting in the area.
Thank you!! I agree, nothing better than fresh fish, duck and grouse over the fire. I always do a salt brine with my ducks if I have the time, at least 24 hours. I feel the salt pulls out that gamey taste if they are the less desirable species like merganser. Also, I ALWAYS cook medium or medium rare. With ducks, I feel that overcooking is the #1 reason they end up tough or gamey.
