The wind had eased up a little bit by the time we headed back but it was still plenty sporty. If it hadn't we would have just had to sit out there till it did I guess. It was plenty chilly, I ran out of coffee before noon.

I've hunted that lake probably hundreds of times, but there aren't maybe half a dozen hunts that often come to mind. That's one of them.....

Going into Canada you have to stop at the border, fill out a form, and give them $25 bucks. Once in awhile they'll come out and actually look at the gun. At the smaller crossings, mostly you just go inside, do the paperwork, and walk out. At the bigger crossings like Windsor they usually come out and look at them. The permit is good for 60 days. Some years, when I hunt over there a lot, I have to buy the damn thing three times.
If you're taking the gun out of the country for the first time you have to stop on the American side and get a little form. Essentially they're checking to see if the serial number is listed as stolen, that's the only reason for it. There's no charge and once you've got one it's good as long as you still own the gun. DLH

Destry - It may be worth your time to get a Canadian Possession and Acquisition license. Good for 3 years I believe. Much cleaner process. Basically, you waste a Saturday taking a mostly useless class in Windsor, and then get your certificate

Yeah, I took that class actually, but never got around to applying for the actual permit. It was in the couple years where Nathan wasn't hunting and I was only going over a few times a season. I wonder if I've still got the graduation certificate around somewhere.....
