Not my adventure - just a good write up from Vintage Guns Journal.

Good story and a fantastic website. The wildfowling up there is pretty special.

On my "bucket list" of hunting adventures. Marrakaitooje out to Harrison's Dam I evening maybevwthAtt Graham (?). Imay have Fred one shot? No goose. We didn't see much.

I don't see thecTop End as "wilderness", certainly near Kakudu. Maybe part of Arnhemland? But perspective, if coming from the UK, Europe heavily populated parts if North America, it might feel like wilderness.

I was at a waterfowl paradise on a cattle station in the West. The waterfowl in flight darkened the sun. But alas NO SHOOTING WATERFOWL. We were there for boar.

September is a lot hotter than August. October a strpmupmagain. November .... Early August is better for buffalo hunting. Inland I've never saw many wAterfowl. On the coast at Gan Gan, the waterfowl madecacrackey way out on the wetlands. Croc waters.

Thanks for posting. An enjoyable read.

An adventure I aim to participate in one day. Maybe an end of August pig and/or buffalo hunt. Followed by a early September waterfowl hunt and fishing interlude.
