Thread: My "Bolt" is buggered

Heading to the river tonight and I seen two hares on the other side so rifle came off the quad gun rack and I squeezed a shot off.

Solid hit was heard but the bloody bolt wouldn't eject the round. Will get that sorted or use the old bolt from my other Stirling .22.

Headed down over the bank and sent "Bolt" the dog out but he didn't see where the hit happened when we arrived.



The hare was dispatched by the post above.

Bolt looking for ducks or fish or eels



I thought fuck it I'm not going over there to retrieve it so carried on fishing as bolt was buggered.

No trout tonight so made the dash across the river for the retreive. Pants off carrying gumboots and rod

This is where the hare layed to rest and the shot was taken from the skyline on the other side.


Well I wasn't going to carry it across an eel infested river so Bolt did.



We just got across and the bloody eels were there.



Buggered Bolt back on the other side

Eels are bloody good eating, cubed then dipped in batter and deep fried

I'd be keen to give that a go, every thing I've ever heard about eel is you smoke it and bugger all else. Had it smoked for the first time ever a couple of weekends ago, smoked with Kanuka chips and tasted pretty bloody good! Luckily the mate who prepped it had a 40L bucket of salt to take care of the slime issue, pretty strange fish the old eel!

Bolt the dog looks happy can't be a bad thing . Any retrieve is a good one for my dog ,doesn't matter WTF it is

Not sure of its food consumption or animal rights problems but surf laundry powder strips the slime of real quick, don't need much either

Thanks Brads and hamsav I gave it a bloody good clean the rifle "bolt" not the dog "Bolt" he had a swim. There must of been shit behind the extractor claws as it emptys a 10 round clip without fail now.

You saw that one coming eh brads!!!
