Epic Spearfishing NZ Cheers mate.

I have hunted the Chatham Island with Darrel Frazer and and also Jacob Wardle. Good luck on Pitt mate.

frank datank |Thanks Frank. I should have gone a bit more into the importance of stock proofing. Thanks again for raising that point. Thumbz up mate!

here in America we call that thrashing

very similar terrain Jim

Yes , some of the places you hunt are beautiful . Did allot of hunting all my life from the age of 5 years i'm 54 know. My whole family are pig hunters . I have been out of the game for a few years, but watching you have put pig's back in my brain. Keep up posting those great video's.. God bless Aloha.

Awesome. I would love to hunt in Hawii one day. I caught a fat wee boar yesterday with the dogs. I will post that hunt up on the first Tuesday of next month. I am 52 so we are not that far apart in age brother.

Yes time sure went fast was 20 last week this week fifty ! lol . Yes one day come hunt . we have goat's , sheep , mouflon , pig's and on the other island's black tail deer, and axis deer. A couple of guy's brought some axis deer over from Maui to the big island where i'm living so we had something different to hunt, well the state people had a stroke and made a big deal about it. The two guy's payed thousands in fine's and the state tried to kill it all . Well they tried i heard that there around yet. Aloha.

thanks Georgia

Take a trip down to some bay pen competitions.There are people who sell pups and start them in a pen on hogs.Book a hog dog hunt.They are cheap and you will learn a lot.

the best way to train dogs is to first do all your basic training and then to hunt your dogs with an experienced hunter and his pack. Only train one dog at a time.

Go to the Department of Conservation and get maps of public land. Get a hunting permit and start walking big miles off the tracks and in the wilderness. Still to the spurs and ridges and stay of the gullies. In the winter hunt the warm North facing hills and look for animal droppings and prints. Good luck.

The best advice I can offer is that he finds someone with an older experienced dog with no bad habits to run it with. To do this join up with your local hunting club and also the fishnhunt forum and make contact with an older bloke who has the time. Good luck.

Holders hold the pig. Bailers stop the pig with a bit to the asre and then bail hard out. (bark). Holders generally hold the pig until the hunter gives the pig the knife. Bailers generally bail the pig until the hunter sneaks in and shoots it.

Hit me up mate. claytallstories@gmail.com

+Matt Brown thanks Matt. I appreciate that offer and will certainly hit you up next time I am in your neck of the woods and have a handy dog or two on the back of the truck.

It is quite a big process. There are plenty of clips on how to tan a hide if you have one ready to tan. I will do a video some time in the future though so stay tuned.

Clay Tall Stories awesome and I love your humour. Also how do you join the good barsterds club it sounds very appealing to me. Thanks again.

To join the club you need to make a contribution to it. That is how I get help to fund making regular videos each week and taking young people hunting. You just decide how much you want to give. Every little bit helps keeping this channel rolling. Thanks

Clay Tall Stories cool thank you

Black Mouth Curs and Catahoulas are popular.

+Nelson Akast you can get it here bro...itunes.apple.com/album/id912470756?ls=1&app=itunes

Tuku Kahukura We can get one sent over to you no worries. 25 NZ for one CD or two CDS for 40. You can send us your addy to Clay Tallstories on facebook via a PM. Or can down load on iTunes. There are two hunt CDS out. The first has a 24 page booklet (CD Quarry Treed) and the newest CD titled 'Balls Ups ,Ballads & Ballshit' comes with 20 songs . itunes.apple.com/album/id912470756?ls=1&app=itunes

This clip is just for starting off hunting with dog & knife. We don't use sent cover as our dogs are working and have their own sent. Wind is always a big factor. These question here that you ask are valid for this clip though...where do they like to graze? what are signs of traffic? Pigs are Omnivores so feed across a wide range of ground. The are opportunist feeders. The main signs we look for is fresh rooting and a good mark showing the due claw. Tree markings or at least rubbing from pigs are other signs. Reading your comment has me thinking maybe I should make a more in depth video on the topic. Good luck with your hunting.

If you did that it would be great!! I really want to get into this and I live in Alabama in the u.s so we don't have many that hunt hog and I really want to do it but I don't know the first thing about it. So if you do make a more in depth video it would be MUCH appreciated! Thanks for replying to me. Safe hunting!

That will be our GPS unit for tracking our dogs.

+Shoot,fish,spear Stickley Thanks Kyle. You better start saving for a fishing & hunting holiday in NZ mate.

If I had my way we would have moved there years ago! Apparently the wife likes to see her mum? I don't know why!

hahaha. Hard case. Oh well...the old girl, bless her, wont last for ever mate.

Thanks mate

+Edz Hanlon I am using 3 different boots. Any thing made with goretex is normally top shelf footwear. It all depends on what dollars you can afford to spend. If your wallet is not so fat it pays t o look on trademe. There are heaps of people out there who think the yare going to get into camping tramping * hunting ...they buy all the flash gear and then 3 months later find they are not cut out for it and then try to flog all theirnew gear off on line

I like that. I am gonna keep that for one of my clips. Thanks.

Ideal!

pete allan the second mouse gets the cheese

You sure can

robbie lambie BIG thank you Robbie and apologies I did forget to credit you for the magic photo in the thumb nail. Out standing photography on your part mate!

Yes I do. Private hunting guides are all over NZ. I take a few people out pig hunting. Most prices start around 300 per day and go up depending on what animal you are hunting. I know a couple of guides and also do a bit of guiding myself.

Try and meet up with another hunter or just start doing long walks in the bush and stock proof as you go along. Good luck.

yeah mate we could look at that. I am currently putting togeather a basic training video. Might look at some advance hunting stuff down the track for my Patrons

Chur mean looking forward to it

I have hunted pigs with just a rifle. I have caught pigs in pig traps. Just like most wild animals you can track them and hunt them. You don't need a dog. A dog is just better than tracking than a human. Having pig dogs is like having a pack of tame wolves all working for you.

Clay Tall Stories cool man thanks for the feedback.inspiring videos as well.

Nothing wrong with that gear mate.

I have two yellow ones. A Knifecut (which just snapped in half) and a Victorinox)

no but it will decrease its chances of injury from hunting as old dogs slow down and are at higher risk of joint problems.

Join a hunting club mate .Goodluck!

a pup with good hunting parents

Just one of the many I have written mate. I am not sure if I have released that one yet. Old Bailing dog is the name I think

@@ClayTallStories I enjoy that one sir, north Florida native checking in here... i searched, didnt see it released

Yeah mate... Still not released it. This year I will release 40 new hunt and fishing songs that being one of them

Svord

thanks mate. Mixed breed. too many in te mix to mention but lots of greyhound and lab and bully

Maybe there is a hunter with dogs living nearby who would be happy to take you out. Maybe you could look after his dogs if he has to go away. Something good should work out eventually if you are really passionate about hunting with dogs.

Connor Hafoka Join up with the Fishnhunt forum and make your self known to all the hunters on the pig hunting section. Always offer something in return for a hunt and remember...The squeaky wheel gets the oil! Keep asking. Here is that link for you to join up on the forum. www.fishnhunt.co.nz/forum/YaBB.cgi?catselect=FishingCat Good luck Connor.

+Connor Hafoka Hook up with a hunter who has dogs mate.

Hit me up here. Claytallstories@gmail.com

Thank you

Cheers Ted. I took Flynn out on Sunday and we got a nice fat sow.

+blokefromthebush Thanks blokes from the bush. Sorry I am 4 months late getting back to you bro. You get that song here on iTunes. This is how I make my living selling hunting songs...which are pretty non-commercial as the market for pig hunting songs is tiny. Thank you for your support. itunes.apple.com/album/id912470756?ls=1&app=itunes

+Clay Tall Stories cheers mate great song

Yeah mate I do quite regularly. A very productive way of catching pigs but pretty much impossible to get any hunting footage in the dark.

Dogs have good days and bad days just like you and me. Right now my dogs have been a bit off the last 3 weeks.

+Clay Tall Stories thanks mate as I say this took my dogs out for a hunt today and caught a pig 1km away dogs killed it so couldn't get to it. but they all came back smelling like wild pork mmmm

+NGOSLAYUPS BTP Flip em n stick em. You can get all of my hunting tunes here bro. Thanks for your support slayups!. itunes.apple.com/album/id912470756?ls=1&app=itunes

About 30 minutes out of Nelson / Tasman

Stephen Coote haha. That epic fail was a comp boar for the Pest Quest in Waimate. If we had been just out harvesting pork for feeding the family it would have got boned out Stephen. If you feel so inclined to see that hunt here is the full clip.You will have laugh. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ldWAedWVtMC1faM.html

I hate hunting music videos

you probably should not watch my channel Anthony because I create lots of songs about hunting. There are plenty of hunting channels with no music other than mine. Happy hunting.

I have to vote you up here for being honest. I wish more people were straight fwd shooting like this. Sorry about the bad language and I am sorry I won't likely change.

I believe that when I vote someone's video down I let them know why. The information I got from it was great. The small changes we make can change lives. Also as someone who lives in a very antihunting area I have to deal with people thinking we are nothing but mean.
