We got caught in a CRAZY blizzard in Northern Canada, so we hunkered down, caught some grouse and snowshoe hare and made an EPIC BUSH MEAL!!!
Watch for "pumpkin pie," ruffed grouse and t-bone steak on the coals and open fire 3 hours North of NORTH! The purpose of the trip was two-fold, we wanted to hit some less pressured game of ruffed grouse and snowshoe hare, but also explore some new lakes and back roads for potential fishing trips come winter, spring, summer and fall.
You can expect us to open up new waterways for sure as we found many small kettle lakes that are promising for all species of fish, from lake trout, brook trout, walleye, pike, bass and even stocked lakes with rainbow and splake! A real Northern paradise! When we think of the North, this is it, where the deciduous trees turn coniferous and the waters stay cold year-round!
These woods are foreign to me, but also very exciting and I'm happy we took the time to get up here to have a look around. I dream of heading even further North to the Hudson Bay lowland and hit areas of Ontario that few people get to really see and explore. Something that is in my blood.
Not captured on video...the hare that I took was actually running full speed on the road heading toward our vehicle - head on, we nearly hit it, but at the last second it turned at a right angle into the woods. I was able to track it to 20 yards and make my shot. We noticed that it had been in pursuit from another predator as revealed by the tracks in the snow. From one predator into the clutches of another - bad day for the hare, is a good day for us!
TO THE VIEWER, snowshoe hare or varying hare are plentiful in the North, as are grouse. They often fall prey to wolves and foxes. Removing one or two hare or grouse from the population helps increase the strength of the overall population. As the season is open in the fall and winter, it helps reduce overcrowding and therefore reduces the stress on other living things like plants and vegetation. Life without balances can often be catastrophic. By not removing animals at the bottom of the food chain, it becomes more stressful for those below it such as plants. Nature intended for the chain to be complete from bottom to the top
