Thanks for that,SHOOTER13.

The last rabbit I bagged was full of small flat worms in the body cavity ,so I disposed of it rather than take a chance on it.

Over all rabbits and partridge seem low this season.A few more partridge than last year,but not a lot.Rabbits so far seem to be down from last year.

Yes kind of sad when the season ends.

Partridge(ruffed grouse) have been down in my area for a long time.The last year that I had a good year was 2004.

No,wish I could say that I had taken a few days off :).Just no luck. :(

Partridge (ruffed grouse) season closed at the end of December.Duck season closes tomorrow.After that only rabbits (snowshoe hare) left to go for.Do not seem to be many around.

So far the rabbits I have bagged have been given to people who I promised rabbits to.These people are older and enjoy rabbits ,but are no longer able to hunt themselves.
