Julie’s Birthday Brown Bear with ProStaffer Rick Kreuter

When we were about 400-yards out, glassing the bear from the boat, we spotted an eddy where the wind was swirling in front of the boat. For no reason at all, the wind turned 180 degrees and was now hitting us in the face, giving us the perfect wind to stalk the bear. We decided Julie was getting more and more birthday presents as this hunt went along.

Additionally, if the Department of Interior finalizes the waterfowl harvest regulations as initially proposed, the possession limit would increase. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service has proposed a six-teal bag limit for early teal season and a possession limit for all seasons equivalent to three daily bag limits.

Predator Expert Steven Reinhold Hunt Crows and Buck Deer

During the summer, many of my friends call and hunt crows. When we think of predators, we’re more likely to think of raccoons, foxes, coyotes and bobcats, but crows not only will destroy a corn crop, they’ll come right behind a farmer planting seeds and dig-up the seeds

Raccoons are a Bigger Problem in the East than Coyotes in the West

In seminars, I’m often asked how I get permission to hunt the places I hunt. I tell them that I knock on doors and ask landowners. Landowners may have problems with bobcats, foxes, coyotes and/or raccoons. In other parts of the country like the Deep South, feral hogs also are viewed as predators and may be hunted all year, but they aren’t a big problem where I hunt.

Steven Reinhold Says to Take Coyotes You Have to Be Different

Coyotes learn very quickly. If they’ve heard a rabbit-in-distress call enough, they won’t go to it anymore, so I change-up my calls. I also use a blackbird-in-distress call. Since predators like birds, when I use the sound of a prey species that other predator hunters aren’t using, I drastically increase my odds for taking predators.
