I got my 1st Pacific Eider!!!Warning: hunting pics!!!!

My real addiction is waterfowling!!!! I had to paddle my ass off to get this guy!!!! Another "poor mans safari"!






I paddled about 2-3 miles out to get it, but worth it! Now I have both eiders!!! Eventually he'll be on the wall next to this guy:

I'm pretty proud that I got both from a kayak!

That takes a good bit of talent to shoot from a kayak. I would be afraid of dropping my gun. Did you get them on the water or on the wing?

[Beerswimmer]

Wing. But it doesn't matter. I didn't use decoys for these. You still have to stalk close enough to hit them hard with steel shot. If they take off or not does not matter.

What they taste like?

I didn't know you had to use steel shot there, that makes it a good bit harder to take them down.

Or you can pay $2.50 a shell for Remington HeavyShot. I hunt Canada geese and to a lesser extent, duck. I have also taken Swan in North Carolina where it is legal.
