Just wondering if there is a Grouse hunt still this year on the long weekend? Could not find it in the regs.

it's definitely in there, Sept 5 - 7 non-toxic shot only with shotguns.

Thanks Russ, I'm unfortunately going to miss it this year, but I'll take it out on some Quebec Ptarmigan instead.

Heading up for Caribou with Explo-Sylva. Bringing along some Judo poiints for Ptarmigan. And the fly rod for Atlantic Salmon, Brookies, and Lakers. I'm also told that there is Arctic Char. I sure hope so where as I've always wanted to catch one. As for the ptarmigan, I really dont want to ground pound them, but with a compound I dont have too many choices. If I take the shot gun, i will be way over the 60 pd weight limit. And my buddies 7mm maybe a little much for the ptarmigan.

Well good luck... Post some picks when you get back

Hunted all day on the first day. It was slow. Very hot. 1 Ruffed Grouse is all we got. There certainly wasn't a ton of shooting going on.

Hunted it all three days....3 sharps day 1, 3 sharps day 2, 3 sharps day 3. Hot. Hard on the dog but she found me birds
