banded pheasant... where do I report it?

[jordano]

i shot a banded pheasant this weekend. it was my first pheasant too =)  is there a number I need to call or a website I need to report it to?

[yelp]

Nope..unless you want to send it to Coyote Ridge or Wa Dept. of Corrections..Did it fly into the decoys or what?  You must be hunting next to a release site..

[jordano]

o went down the shore a ways and he was standing there looking at me so I chased him til he flew ha. but ya the band says Coyote Ridge/WSP. what does that mean? but it was at Spanish Castle between Rock Island Dam and Cresent Bar

[bobcat]

It just means the bird was raised at "Coyote Ridge" which is at a prison (I think Walla Walla?)  I think the WSP stands for Washington State Prisons. (but not sure about that either)  Either way, the band just means it's not a wild pheasant. No need to report anything.

[jordano]

ok thank you! sounds good!!!

[twisp_river_slayer]

yeah i shot two of two of those same bands just yesterday near oroville, wa. They are just used to mark the pen raised roosters. Those birds are retarded compared to the wilds ones

[270Shooter]

Did yah kill him with orange on? 

Them chickens aren't nothin compared to a wily old rooster on the REZ

[carpsniperg2]

yep prison birds i call them chickens they are so dum. i used to hunt them when i was little. we have 2 realease sites were we live. now i just take new hunters and young kids out. i can't stand to go hunt them my dogs will catch most of them. i met one of the gaurds that works at the prison while archery elk hunting in rimrock this year. no reporting needed unless you want a pen pal

[h2ofowlr]

There you go Jordano.  Some bands for your lanyard.

[jackelope]

ha thanks guys  it will definately mix it up a bit     I was really excited!!!

and no kidding these are dumb!!! I was driving down a dirt road that runs along the river just to see if there were ducks along the river and I had an orange vest in my back seat and my gun in my passenger seat with shells out of the gun.... it was standing on the side of the road off by 2 feet and I had time to slam onmy brakes and load my fun and put on my vest.... it moved a whole 3 feet until I got out of the truck then it took of and i chased after it and then it flew cause I got him too close to the river     and blam blam got him  pretty sweet first pheasant story i think       

[Birdguy]

These days any pheasant story that ends with you getting one is a good story . Seems they are a bit tougher to come by this year. Not to many wild ones.

that is so true!

[BIGINNER]

lol.  i shot a pen raised pheasnt with a pellet gun, i was shooting cans,  and the thing just waked right up to me,...  it tasted good...     

my little nephew shot a wild one with a home-made bow,  he walked right up to it and the bird just sat there in the bushes trying to hide,  that one tasted good too....

careful with shooting the pheasant not with a shotgun big time fines there!!!            I think the bow is legal it just depends what the archery season is....  but those are still way cool stories!!! 

[BIGINNER]

ya,  i din't know the rule about shotguns back then,    and my nephew shot his in there backyard, he used a nail for the tip.....  funny what kids can come up with,

[Jburke]

o went down the shore a ways and he was standing there looking at me so I chased him til he flew ha. but ya the band says Coyote Ridge/WSP. what does that mean? but it was at Spanish Castle between Rock Island Dam and Cresent Bar

Haha.  My brother said he was up the canyon the other day trying to hunt coyote but every five minutes all he heard were the duck or geese hunters down at Spanish Castle.  So he ended up going home early.  I thought it was funny, might have been you, maybe not.  Still funny to me.

well if it was friday after thanksgiving then it was my dad and I. There were two other groups that we could hear too. so if it was that day... yep sorry about that!!!

I have a whole bowl full of those bands. Those are the most retarded birds in the entire world. One day i went out and limited out without ever even firing a shot. My dog caught all three birds for me. I like shooting wild birds much better but I'll pretty much take any pheasant that i can get. Nice rooster and cool first bird story.

P.S WSP   Washington State Penitentiary

I have watched the truck pull out of the parking lot many times. I'm going to follow it one of these days.

Your right. those birds are pretty bad. I hunted a Primo game Ranch once down in Oregon called Trio Ranch. It was a business deal. I shot 35 of those things in one day. It was one of the funnest things i had ever done. Shot a butt load of Chukars too. They were all penned raised tard birds. Some wouldn't fly, they'd just lay there and let the dogs get them. It was fun though.

You know it's gonna be fun when they say "bring 100 rounds". "For pheasants and chukars!?!?!" "Yep bring 100". Well we didn't need 100 but you get my point. It was a blast.

o you and your dad were out in a boat that day? o we were in a blind just up river from the bend. we walked a whole 20 yards from the road. ha   well that is very cool!

[CoryTDF]

JohnnyTDF and i got out on Friday afternoon and shot these. It was sooooooo fun. Had to kick two of them in the ass to make them fly. Tonight they are in the crock pot

[teal101]

I have a string I put all mine on and put it on my dresser.  They are released at the clockum game house and surrounding area a few times a year.  Some of em try to fly across the river to spanish castle orchards and most end up falling short and drowning

But ya those birds are dumb as hell.  We had one bird up swakene run and stick its head under a piece of plywood ass up in the air and thought it was hidden
