Sandhill Crane - "Rib-eye in the Sky"?

[IowaHunter]

That looked fantastic. I want to hunt them someday.

[rbertman]

They are fun as he-- to hunt and they make a great meal to boot

[Soybean]

Very inspired...I have them like rats around here. Never dropped one, cause I've boon told they taste like rat... That don't look like rat to me!

I guess I just need to start killing stuff, and figuring it out for myself.

Our lease must be on a migration route cause they will fly over all day long and you can hear them way before you see them.

I'm gonna have to see if I need a special stamp or something.

I believe waterfowl stamp and Free Sandhills crane permit from your local TOWD office.

[Fergeris]

I see them at the lease an wondered how they tasted

[ChargerServices]

I give the ducks to my Hispanic friends and keep the cranes every time





Or my Cajun friends

I had 6 in the oat field tonight! Loud rascals!

You need the state migratory stamp and free Federal Crane Permit available at TPWD offices. No federal waterfowl stamp required.

I'm already planning a trip back to Lubbock soon. I need more!

[jetlag887]

They are great. Had them once, was very impressed.

[Dusty Britches]

No waterfowl stamp? interesting. I've always wanted to shoot one, too, but I'm in the no-shoot zone. I love hearing them and seeing them light into the area.

[texaggie17]

Looks delicious!

[drube75]

Eat the legs next time....Thats where its at!

[panhandlehunter]

I cook it just like I do a ribeye. Rub with olive oil, sea salt, and fresh cracked black pepper and cook to medium rare over mesquite coals. Some of the best eating wild game there is.
