I haven't hunted ducks or geese seriously since the lead shot ban. Mostly due to the fact that I haven't found a recipe to make geese tender or ducks taste like anything better than a bad piece of liver. I have a wonderful mutt that is too birdy to waste. He is a 18 month old Cocker Spaniel/Labrador mix that hunts better than my prior pooch which was a well trained GSP. He's a SOLID 47 lbs, swims like a fish and is hell on upland game and retrieves like no other. The problem is me when it comes to waterfowl. If I won't eat it I won't shoot it. Please help.
