Garmin astro 220 / DC 30.

Absolutely brilliant piece of gear, no hunting dog should leave the ute without them.

I just ordered one over the net after losing my dog on Sat arvo. Worst hour of my life waiting for him to turn up again. He's not a hunter but chases pigs, buffalo and anything else he can see or hear running through the bush which we get alot of around here. What kind of dog is that?
 
Unknown mixed breed found abandoned as a pup at the Hopevale aboriginal community north west of Cooktown. He is a mates dog and finds / bails over 400 pigs a year. We caught 35 pigs in 6 hours hunting with him and another hard bailer. An absolute freak of a dog however he is getting old now. He is still an asset in training pups.

I would guess that he has kelpie, pitty and stag in him from the rest of the murray dogs there.

I will put some pics up of my dogs soon, Juno = Dane x Mastiff bitch and Lily G.S.P x Bull Arab bitch.

It sure sucks loosing your dogs mate, but your very lucky to get him back.

great pics guys my biggest achivement is holding a 6ft murry darling for the first time while being scared ****less of snakes lol now i own 3 soon to be 4 xD
 
Some locals asked me to come out and shoot some buffalo they saw on Sunday. Didn't find any buff but still managed to get 12 geese, 3 wallabies and 5 pigs. The first mob of pigs we came across ran through a small clearing about 50m in front of me and i didn't manage to put a single one down, very confident that i hit 3 out of the 4 i shot at though. We went after them because we were looking for food to take back to town but couldn't find any.

Came across a loan boar a bit later, i put a good stalk on and dropped him. No hooks but would be pretty close to my biggest boar yet, apparently the boars don't taste real good so we left him. Later on we found a mob of about 30 on the floodplain just having a good time in the mud. I dropped 2 smaller pigs from about 90-100m, then the morons turned and came running toward me and i dropped one more big sow. Unbeknownst to me, the fella who took me out to this spot, Martin, had camped up with my shot gun and he managed to drop another small sow with bird shot lol!

Finally we met up with the rest of Martin's family where we had a big feed of roast pork and magpie goose!

Nice pics in this thread, some of the pigs and some of the fish are fantastic

Wow I've gotta visit up north, SE QLD is great if you wanna chase bimbo's or asians, neither really appeal to me at the moment.........well maybe the bimbos.

if I end up visiting my cousin in Dysart I'll have some pics to post :)

though she uses the dogs and tips the pigs and hogties them for the box.


Also, wish I'd taken some pics of my biggest burnouts back in the day, I could've posted them up here :lol:

Taste of the boars is a matter of opinion. The Germans target the boars in particular as they love the taste.
 
A bit of a skinny barracuda that I speared while doing a coastal run, got him just under the eye then finished him off on the top of the head with another speargun. The biggest ive speared when i had a camera but second biggest

I think it's also the ammount of fat in the sows, the countrymen LOOOOVE the really fat ones. Most of the boars are relatively lean.
