Hi
Just finished the second hunt.
My update.
1. Felt like more hunters this year than last year.
2. First day was crazy. Birds everywhere. If I shot as good as my dog found them I would have been done Thursday.
3. Day two and three were a lot harder. No idea where the birds went. Had to work hard to limit.
4. Some land I hunted last year was signed no hunting this year :( hopefully it is not a trend.
5. Only had pellets rain down on me once.
6. Pretty cold at night.
7. Pretty sure I had the only Golden on the island.
Probably going back for one of the cleanup hunts.
First hunt first day and first bird.

Thanks for the update. I love Pelee. The posted land, was it in crops? It’s unusual to see posted land there. I hope it doesn’t become a trend.
I was on the second hunt this week as well. Weather was absolutely perfect, and the hunt was excellent as usual - Lots of birds everywhere. Hunted my older GSP and my younger Brittany, and they did very well - it’s great to be able to rotate dogs every hour or so. As for hunter numbers, yeah I agree that it seemed like there were a few more hunters this year which was nice to see. Still plenty of space to hunt without bunching up around others. As for posted land, I felt a couple more properties had no hunting signs posted, but still a very small amount overall (and not related to crops as far as I could see Dilly). As for crops, there were still quite a few fields that had beans up, so some of the places that I hunted in previous years were a no go due to this. Regardless , still plenty of nice spots and had a blast once again on Pelee.
Thanks for the reports guys, been hearing the same from others.
Got a brand new pup here, so eyes on 2023!
Great picture! Good looking dog and bird. Thanks for the updates. That is very helpful. I have skipped a few years but will be back to Pelee in 2023. It's always fun.Quote:
