Thread: Motorbike hunting!

So is anyone else doing this. I usually drive a land cruiser but I use my triumph tiger as an everyday bike and I much prefer it. I’ve moved a lot on a bike before , stuff you wouldn’t believe. I recon it’s pretty compétant to carry a goat over the back of the paniers though it’s easy to fill bags with meat and pack them away.

never tried hunting motorbikes are there many on doc land and whats a good cal to use

Don't need a cal really just two trees and some rope

I assume you mean something like this?

bamboo snare!

There's a thread or two already about this. You may find some answers there.

There have been a couple of threads.

Two too many wheels.

I can put you on to a Pub, with poor lighting, where lots of them seem to congregate from dusk onwards..

No reason why not use it.
Would be quick on the road and pretty good on tracks.
Just the issue of security when/if you leave it.
Can get lockable mesh bags to put your road gear (helemt/pants jacket) in.
Use over boots and you could ride too and from in your hunting boots.
Another trick we use is carry a length of light chain and run it though pants leg,jacket sleeve and helmet and lock onto bike.
Mind you some areas have improved out of sight as cameras have been put up and numbers of people around.

they are some good tips my brother, i have a full pannier set on my bike so use the panniers themselves to hold all the gear i don't take with me into the bush then across the back seats and panniers make a good surface area to support a small kill. just makes it very easy getting somewhere , its quick enjoyable. i suppose you guys don't have the issue of driving down the road with your kill of show. The UK would be going mental, think just recently in the news somewhere like Canada was reporting on a ute with a deer in the back being a disgusting practise and that it should be covered over and such....

Someone taking camouflage a bit far?

Laws of salvage apply?
