Are you allowed to have a go pro on your shotgun while waterfowl hunting? What about on the dog? Didn't know because of the no electronic rule
-
I would think the no electronics would only apply to the decoys and calls. But be careful because the footage will show this misses too! :chuckle: Pretty cool idea though!
-
I dont know but I agree that would be pretty cool!
-
As long as it's not aiding you in the hunt, (calling, attracting) we have used them before it really does give people that don't hunt (like my wife) a good idea of what it's like :tup:

IfI were you I would CYA and call WDFW and ask them. If they say go for it make sure you write there name down. Like I said CYA, you don't want to get caught by a gamie who interprets the laws differently. Had a similar thing happen to a buddy and because he had the name of the person he talked to it was dropped right there on the spot. :twocents:

Have at it. It doesn't enhance your hunt. I bought one the other day and will use it whatever way I want. It's a camera and nothing else.
-
Legal. It would be cool to have one on the shotgun and one on the dog and then edit the two footages together.
-
I use one bird hunting. I have a mount on my gun and a headband mount. Haven't tried to mount to the pooch yet, I've heard the Chesty can work for it though. They way I look at it, its no different than videoing your hunt with a camera on a tripod.
-
Your fine on whatever you place it on. My buddy has one on the collar of his dog. I have a shotgun mount one and one for my head. We had 5 going the other day. No restrictions on a camera. They had restrictions on devices that project a laser for for sighting purposes, etc. It's not an electronic call. Good to go. If you want a dozen on around where you shoot, go for it. Ours will be out in the morning recording.

Do you guys have the silver or black version?

I think the GoPro idea on the dog is a great one. I'd pay a nickel to see that.

:yeah:
The "No electronics" rule refers to anything that aids in attracting birds to you.
Like a sexy robot Hen mallard, for example, would be a no-go.
You can use all the electronincs you want, as long as they don't make ripples in the water, make noises that attract, or flag ducks in for a landing.... just for instance.
-
I mean... we all use flash lights or heaters or microwave ovens or Televisions while hunting in the blind. Those are electronics... right? :chuckle:
But they don't help you attract birds.

Depends how loud the volume is when you are watching Butt (for you Run), I mean Duck Commander. :chuckle:
