Any Waterfowl Section
Hello all,
I'm very new to the site. I am enjoying it very much. Is there no WATERFOWL
dedicated section ....... Or maybe I'm just a bafoon and am missing it.
If there isn't one, could I suggest there be a DEDICATED Waterfowl section.
Thanks
Csm

Sorry, only the fly fishermen and archers (bows only!!!) were snooty enough to demand their own section. Everyone else is happy with a general "killin' stuff" section. (hunting).

There's only about 20 guys in all of Alberta that hunt waterfowl anyway.

The waterfowl talk will start in September. Then the waterfowlers will be quiet and go shoot birds in October when everyone starts posting about elk hunting.

I'm one of the 20. We're just way outnumbered by the horny hunters.

There is no big game forum, no upland forum, and no varmint forum, so why would anyone expect a waterfowl forum?

Because it never hurts to ask.
At one time there was no Flyfishing Forum, and no Archery Forum. They came about
because people asked for them, and there was enough demand to justify them.

Check out Saskatchewan Hunts website. They have a million sub forums within the site. It doesn't make it better.

Check out the BC hunting forum. They have about 20 sub forums. It's ridiculous. Each sub forum//section gets about 5 posts a day total.
It's a pile of opening sections over and over. Vs open the hunting section and scan for posts that interests you.
It's like the question that gets asked and an ice fishing section. No point. One would be dormant while the other would be busy. And when the ice melts, it swaps.
I see no reason to break it up so much. But that's my opinion.
Edit: counted 29 sections on the Bc forum. Where does one stop?

If you go to the new posts button, you can read this forum like it's all one section.
I highly recommend it.
I find interesting stuff to read all the time, and it turns out it was in the trapping, or fly fishing section (where I'd never click directly, because I don't trap or fly fish).
So, put my vote in for fewer sub forums.

I actually think a waterfowl forum is a good idea.

While we're asking for new forums, how about a drinking forum?

There is a waterfowl hunter social group I believe.
Go to your user CP (top left in header) and then on the left side under Networking you will find the social groups.
