Chipmunks

[Raider Nation Fisher]

Since I'm limited to what I can hunt right now. Squirrel season doesn't start til September same with coon. Not really feeling like shooting at coyotes right now either. Not really into blasting beavers right now. Plus apparently opossum now have a season. Who would have thought. So that nixes them. I've been running my dogs, and need something to shoot at. So I am thinking chipmunks. Aside from making coasters, what's a good use for chipmunk pelts. Never thought about eating one either. Anyone ever tried one?

Ive never personally eaten one but ive heard theyre pretty good and my dogs and cats sure do like em. I cant really think of much to do with the pelts aside from just hangin em on the wall in your man cave for decoration. You might could stitch a few of em together and make a reel cover?

Freeze them and save for musky bait

Ain't got musky down here. I could mail you a few if you want them.

I like the reel cover idea.

Brings back memories! Growing up in my early teens, we use to shoot chippies, off-hand, with a Marlin 39A .22 lever rifle. Don't recall what we did with them though?

 

Got my first woodchuck with an old .25/20 lever gun too.

If you need a hunting ground let me know. I have offered a $1 bounty for each one my nephew and his friends kill in my yard. I have paid out over $60 so far. These kids my start a college fund with their pellet guns. On the plus side all the dead chipmunks thrown over my sea wall have made cat fishing great.

Shoot paper targets or soda cans. Let the little guys live as long as they can there on the bottom of the food chain anyway.

I do preach what I talk too. I was tracking a bear in the snow and seen her cub zig sagging the sows tracks so not wanting to kill both I backed out of there. The very next year I got a bear. I saved a cub and it's mother.

Yeah I gave up on the chipmunks. I've taken up hog hunting now. More sporting to me than blasting the little fuzz balls.

I can read animals. I watch them from my stand. When the chipmunks freeze and look in one direction you know something is headed your way. Reading the animals is like having radar.
