#1: What's yout bag limit? Author: Victorian, Location: MelbournePosted: Wed Jul 30, 2014 2:35 am ---- Here in Victoria (S.E. Australia) we have 8 game species and our season runs from 3rd Saturday in March through to 2nd Monday in June (12 weeks). Bag limit is 10 per day unless reduced for seasonal conditions (drought - one season we had a limit of 2, but was happy to have a season).
When surveys are done, the "average" actual bag on opening days here usually is said to be about 3 - 4 per hunter (there are lots of once a year hunters, who I'd call shooters rather than hunters).
I've heard Americans think our bag limits are big.
PS - We can also hunt under pest permits in the rice growing season (November - February) generally no individual bag limit, but property permit limits can apply.

#3: Re: What's yout bag limit? Author: Dawgdad, Location: On the PrairiePosted: Wed Oct 29, 2014 1:32 pm ---- For Ducks, in my state it is pretty convoluted....
Basically six ducks or teal, of which no more than four may be mallards of which no more than two may be female. Not more than three wood ducks, three scaup, two redheads, two pintails, one canvasback,1 black duck and 1 mottled duck.
5 mergansers with no more than two hooded mergansers.
Possession limit is three daily limits.
Geese - Canadian limit is two. Brandt gees is one, Blue Ross and Snow geese is 20.

Thank you Greenies, may you rot in the same hell reserved for terrorists and paedophiles.

Author: Aloysius, Location: B., BelgiumPosted: Thu Oct 30, 2014 11:37 am ---- My bag is limited by my back, the size of my bag, the amount of game we can shoot and the knowledge that you can only shoot it once. So we try not to shoot female small game as their job is to get us new game next year. There is no selection when shooting rabbits or dove, but for hare, the one running away with its ears down in its neck is left alone as she is most probably female.
And no, other hunters are not allowed to hunt uninvited in our area, so we know that when we shoot too much game, it's our own fault when there is nothing left for the year after. We even have to take into account poaching, diseases, predators... it's almost farming, only the harvesting is a little bit different.
