Hunting along lower Salt River?

[Brlux]

So over the years I have often heard shooting while Kayaking the lower part of the salt river. It has seemed to come from near the end of the river about 1 mile before riving at Granit Reef recreation sight and on the South/East side of the river. The shooting pattern seems to be consistent with hunting, not target shooting. Curious if this is a known waterfowl hunting spot or something? It would seem to me to be to congested of an area for hunting but just curious. North side of the river is tribal land where I guess they can do just about whatever they want but this seems to be coming from the south side of the river.

Dove and or Quail maybe.

In AZ have to be 1/4 mile from an occupied structure. (ridiculously restrictive IMHO)

Also a good place for Sandhill Crane.

They are great eating!

Unless you have permission from the owners.
Then you can hunt off the porch if you want.

Reminds me of a joke,....



A forest ranger making his rounds at various camping spots came upon a rather dilapidated camp. It seemed more likely to a homeless person rather than recreational city folks. He decided to investigate.

He found indeed what appeared to be a hobo, who was consuming a bird he had cooked. Suddenly, the ranger recognized the pile of feathers that could only belong to an endangered Spotted Owl!

"You reckless, inconsiderate dummy! You're eating an endangered Spotted Owl, you uncaring, heartless bastard!"

"Oh no, officer. I found this bird already deceased, right over there. And I'm poor and hungry, so I figured it wouldn't hurt none to not let this go to waste."

"Well, golly. That does make a difference. I suppose it's better to not let the animal go to waste. But geez,...I've never heard what owl tastes like.

"Oh,...I'd say its halfway between a Bald Eagle and a Whooping Crane."
