Early Teal Season Tips

Teal, we meet again

by Keith Sutton

If you haven't tried teal hunting yet, you should.

Duck hunting often reminds us of numb toes, frozen fingers and rosy cheeks. You won't be cold, however, during a September teal hunt. An early-season foray for blue-winged, green-winged and/or cinnamon teal usually is a shirtsleeve affair where sweat runs freely and mosquitoes substitute for snowflakes.

The Fundamentals of Blind Retrieves

The Fundamentals of Blind Retrieves
by Mike Stewart

One of the most exhilarating and rewarding aspects of developing a finished waterfowl retriever is training the dog to run blinds, that is to pick up birds the dog didn't see fall. Little else in the gun dog world will equal the thrill of being directly involved with a retriever, one on one, as the dog boldly goes out to a fall area to locate an unseen bird under complete control, returning promptly to make a retrieve to hand. Successful blinds are a visible statement to anyone's training efforts. read more...

May 15th, 2008 - Southeastern Saskatchewan is Dry

Posted by on 2008-05-21 13:10:30 CDT

The CWS crew and I have begun working on survey's in the south-eastern part of Saskatchewan. Conditions here have not changed much compared to what we saw in Manitoba - it's very dry. However there is noticeably more water in the large, permanent wetlands than we saw in Manitoba.

During our survey, we classify wetlands based on water depth, types of vegetation associated with the wetland and estimated permanency of the wetland. These range from a type 1 pond which is only inches deep and typically don't last longer than three weeks, to a type 5 pond that is deep and will last throughout the year. We also classify artificial wetlands, dugouts, borrow pits, gravel pits etc. Typically these hold water even in dry years, but are far less productive than natural wetlands.
