IMO trad folks have very high hunting ethics. Just comes with choosing a "primitive" wepon over comfort and technology. so here is what i got.
I have been chasing a DinoGar all summer. Thats an alagator gar that could possiably break 200 pounds. Each week the water level drops and i get closer to him. Time is getting short though. with bow(and dove) season approaching im starting to get a little jumpy. it is trapped in a low part of the river and cant leave until the water level comes up. I have found out that a rod fisherman has also located the beast. he fishes during the week as he is retired and i can only fish one day/night a week.
I had a buddy suggest to use a large hook tied to 10 pound monofiliment and attatched to a small water bottle. IF the dino gar took the bait he would then be MARKED and could be located. the river is low but still offers a quarter mile of water to hide in.
Questions:
1. Is this ethical?
2. Would it be considered a bow kill?
Kinda confused on this one.
