Wabbiter, it does still have some interesting bits in it, just not what I was expecting. A lot on catching beavers, muskrats, and bears, so not all that relevant.
Had both his books,"Survival Poaching" and "Hard-core poaching" neither were applicable to the UK,didnt learn one thing from the books except I should have saved my cash for something useful The methods werent authors fairy stories like in the old UK so-called poaching manuals,but neither were the methods outlined overly useful either,just my 0.2 cents worth anyway
well mate like me you bought them to see if there was something to learn from them would I buy them again NO but untill you look you never know ?? TO THE BEST OF MY KNOWLEDGE NOEWHERE IS THERE AN INSTRUCTIONAL MANUAL THAT CATERS FOR THIS MATTER poaching by nature is not something that is advertised on a detailed scale you could try checking out buckshot
Theres a book being written and collated at the moment dugaboy,without doubt the most in-depth work on certain subjects ever written,not by a wannabee but a guy with incredible skills who really knows his art
Not like pat-careys DVD with fake trout-tickling but a guy everyone considers the real-deal,never heard one person criticise nor say one bad word about him because everyone knows he is the oracle on certain subjects,just wait a while,it will be on the shelves,money well spend
Gill-netting birds in Bensons book?We used to flight net duck,different concept,only ever caught cormorants in gill nets,but I dont think benson had much of an idea in that field to be honest

The lack of modesty?
Wait a minute, it must be be tidal wear's autobiography.
When's it coming out if you aren't having a laugh? I am genuinely intreged, you have a lot of interesting stories and a few photoshopped pictures of guys with balaclava fetishes.
Fake trout tickling reminds me of a time fishing with rods in a good salmon river, we weren't getting much, so for a laugh a friend tries tickling under the bank. I was so surprised when he pulled out a big wild brown trout of about 3lb. It looked good, I was like "wow, you're amazing." When I got closer to him, I noticed the fish was dead and had been so for a while.
Photoshopped?Surely you jest sir?
Wouldnt know how to photoshop fishy As for modesty,well,I am not the one PM'ing me about netting fish one day,then setting myself up as an instant expert the next on places like bushcraft UK You know I know my subject Not my autobiography,sadly I cant write for toffee,but the book is indeed coming out
