Did you see ones you borderline passed on or just didn't see shit?
We got weathered in on Afognak.
The one day we did hunt, I found the elk.

We ridge hiked a few miles to where we were within 1000 yards of them.....
And I looked up ahead and some fucker was standing above them glassing the valley.
He didn't even see them.
We sat back for a few minutes and then he spotted them.
Moron went around the peak up wind of them and scared them all off.

Other than that, we didn't' see shit.
(Minus a few nice black bears about 3k feet up on the other hunt.)
 
I need steel shot for snow goose season. Any leads are appreciated. I'd prefer bb, 2, 1 or even BBB shot.

Good luck with THAT search right now.

Edited to add - if you’re near Bennington, I’ve got some random boxes of this in the gun safe I’m not using. PM me if you’re SOL on any other sources.

This photo is a pretty good summary of my trip to South Dakota with a couple buddies last weekend. We filled a 2 day 3 man limit of Walleye - ended up coming close on perch. The empty bottle of fireball and empty Busch light cans are the tip of the iceberg
now that looks like every ice fishing trip i've been a part of.

I gave up rabbit hunting around here because I can’t get steel shot. I work part time at a Sportsmans warehouse and I haven’t seen it come in since August.

A lot of public access around me is steel only.

I saw some Tungsten in 3.5" shells yesterday during a quick search for @kyle23, and figured since they were in 3.5" shells they'd be fine for goose hunting. Nope, a mix of 4-7 shot. Weird load, IYAM and priced at roughly $4/shell. Yikes.
 
Rogers Sporting Goods sent me an email this morning that they have 3.5" BBB back in stock. Fired off an order for a case right then.

I've been looking for weeks. Maybe I just needed a little tPB luck to find some.
