This episode we jump forward a few years and take a look at some of the latest footage Jake and the team have captured. He's a little older, a little wiser and with some new cameras and gear the quality has gotten better as well. He's still hunting a variety of species in a variety of ways, from shooting deer to dogging pigs. First up, the team hit the hills finding and catching some good mountain hogs, it ain't no easy flat country that's for sure. It's thick, it's tough and the dogs have to work hard. While out hunting pigs they can get lucky and come across some trophy deer as well. So without further ado let's get in on the action.

Join Beau as he heads out hunting the cane showing us some of the challenges that you face when trying to catch pigs in the cane.

This episode the team head out hunting a variety of different species, some with the rifle, some with the bow and sometimes just the camera. You will get to see deer, pigs, goats, rabbits and foxes. So let's not dilly dally, let's get in on the action.

This episode, it's all about fishing, the team head out catching Murray cod and yellow belly from the river, using spinnerbaits and hard-bodied lures. So if you don't mind a bit of fishing kick back and enjoy.

Coming Up on episode two of Bristle Up's Huntin and Fishing Adventures, Daniel from ultimate hunting Australia shows us how he trains his dogs to track, find and point deer for him down in victoria, his dogs allow him to find many more deer than he normally would on any given hunt. Scott Meadows is back hitting the dams in dry western new south wales taking some good boars down with his bow, then we join Tim and Joey as they show us what land based shark fishing is all about. To finish up, Clark McGhie heads out with an old friend aiming to take down a few scrub bulls in thick mountainous country up in north Queensland. So kick back and enjoy the show.

E1 - Hunting & Fishing

Tough dogs and trap wrecking wild pigs, just what you need on your trapline. Well, game on we said.

Small game - rabbits, pigeons and predator control. I knew there was a rabbit population from the property owner, but had no idea there was this many around. I'm shooting my my FX Impact M3 .22 calibre for some BULK pest control shooting, headshot central as you will see. This is a professional pest control cull for a local problem. Rabbit hunting at night is an Aussie pastime, add in a modern twist of PCP hunting with thermal and night vision equipment. You can envisage good results if the rabbit numbers are prevalent. There is plenty of air rifle hunting and shooting action in this YouTube video for you all to watch. Nice to thin out the Invasive Indian Myna bird population along with a few feral pigeons.

FX Impact M3 is shooting on song in .22 calibre shooting 23gr Patriot Javelin slugs. Scope is a PARD NV008s LRF with ballistic hold over capability. Thermal hand scanner duties went to the amazing Pulsar Merger LRF XP50 binoculars. For those interested my FX Impact M3 is running a Huma-Air high flow slug & pellet probe but no other power upgrades. It has a standard 600mm barrel with superior liner (not heavy). I'm firing the 23gr slugs at about 925 fps for sub MOA accuracy (Which as 44 ft/lbs for the UK guys that feel the requirement to know this). Few Sabre Tactical upgrades in the mix to the rifle body like the Arca Rail 2, TRS & bag rider. Air supply is by a ShootAir light weight composite tank to refill the rifle bottle as required.

A good portion of these rabbits shot are utilised for the pot or pet food.

I am a licensed vertebrate pest control - contract shooters in NSW. For those wondering about the suppressor, I hold the necessary permit in NSW for use. If seeking information regarding that, please check the FAR webpage for details. All shooting is performed on privately owned farms, with exclusive permission granted in writing for paid services.

Many years ago, I did a hunt with one of our legendary characters of the hunting industry. Dan Latella is the muzzleloader man and few can match his skill with the old flintlock.

We are all very fond of our old "Zuke", the Susuki Sierra 1.3lt 4x4, however it has had a hard hard life. Soon it will be retired for a while and refurbished so it only had to do this one last trapline. Even Skunk looked worried but with traps in the ground, the show must go on.

Back in the days before the "Buy Back", when we could still use our semi's, when I was licensed for a sidearm. Those were the days.

We were doing okay, the wild dogs were falling into step and the trapline was in place. Now to keep the pressure on, check, re-check and improve at every opportunity.
