Thread: New to Nelson and in need of hunting mates

Thanks for that! Good to know. It's a real shame about the 1080 around here. I have seen that there are a few fallow in the area, correct? Is it mainly bush hunting there and should I be looking around on the river flats at the right times of the day?

Hi, welcome. Theres a few fallow around the perlous. Bush stalking is the way to go. River flats are good in spring but always worth a look at the change of light.Plenty of goats in certain places and the odd pig. Few animals in behind the Middy hut and the odd red. Just go for a walk and look for sign then hunt areas again that have reasonable sign. I head that way myself end of april, may pm you when i do and you can tag along if you wish, cheers jason

Thanks for the info. I would definitely be keen to go for a hunt at the end of April. Let me know when you are going and if you don't mind I will tag along. Cheers!

All good, i pm you closer to the time. We have a look for a late red or a fallow, i know a spot i want go have a look
