I went Squirrel Hunting

[DuMa]

Any elk moose there?  Fools over here be shooting them.  Not sure about shooting the elk regulation either

Lots of cows over here.  Why don't they shoot those?

I've been squirrel hunting for the past 5 years. It's fun and you do get quiet a good workout. I lived in MN, there's too many hunters, so I traveled to other southern states to squirrel hunt.

plenty of elk here either sex or cow or bull tags... moose are lottery draw tags...

animals that i prefer over squirrels... crappy, white-bass, trout, salmon, wipers, walleyes, grouse, marmot, teals, ducks, geese, deer, & elk.. truthfully... these are the only animals i primarily go for... lol!

Ok. Thanks. No squirrel down then.

go find tree
that drop nuts

their food source
and just camp there

no need to walk all over the forest

hunting is hard, man
don't aim for the head if you not going hit it
see a lot rookies shooting at every angle
and missing and scaring them squirrel away

you better off with a bodyshot
better sucess that way

Morels are hard to find and people keep their spots secretive.

I'll keep a look out when I'm in the woods but so far no luck.  Good for you.

[Reporter]

If they are carcasses, then all the deer are dead and gone.

Lots of deer here
I saw like 15++. Deer carcasses on a 30 miles road stretch

A lot of us Hmong here are starting to hunt for trophy type deer
We’re letting the small, female, young, etc... go
Ain’t about meat these days
More about bragging right

[Reporter]

Have you hunted bears? I'm thinking about it.

This year is a good year for squirrel hunting in MN. Trees had plenty of nuts unlike previous years. We bag our limit in a few hours every time we go out. I'm mostly into big game but I know all the hot spots in southern MN because I hunt big game down there.

every time i drive out east... i always see a deer carcass or two or three... deer run rampant in the mid-west and east...

Probably why chai Vang came over from MN to hunt in Wisconsin

Good for you.  At our last hunt, we got 3 squirrels in 3 hours.  We weren't so lucky but the hike was really good, uphill, downhill, etc..  I had a great work out and it shows the next day

[Dok_Champa]

i don't hunt squirrels because i don't have an yearning to eat them... many of my family members who are squirrel connoisseurs don't even hunt high country squirrels... said they taste too much like pine needles... they do however prefer eastern plain squirrels where they feed primarily on acorn and corn...

That's what I heard too down in CA.  In the midwest, don't have to worry about that.  The taste is very gaming  and definitely not like any plants or trees.

[Reporter]

If you look around, you should see cars running by. Where there are dead deer, there are cars hitting them.

[Mr_Mechanic]

all these talks about squirrels makes me hungry......hu ngry for squirrels

[Dok_Champa]

Oh yes forgot to add, even if you don't eat squirrels, it's a lucrative business at $10 or more per squirrel which many people are willing to pay or buy.  If you sell for less, even better.  $5  per squirrel is a bargain
