Title: The squirrels ruined my coon hunt!
Post by: coyote101 on December 30, 2021, 04:42:43 PM
I went out this morning to try and call some raccoons. No coons showed, but the squirrels were running everywhere, so the game changed.

I got a limit using my son's Ruger 10/22.

I may try again tomorrow.

Squirrels will probably taste a little better than a coon.

Roast coon tastes like pork, but you need to remove as much of the fat before cooking. The only squirrel I have tried was pine squirrel and thought they tasted like turpentine. Eating squirrels that feed on corn and mast crops should taste better, I believe.
