In this issue Barry Sharplin suggests there's more to game bird hunting than ducks. Make the most of your licence, he writes, and get out after paradise ducks, swans, pheasants and quail - even pukeko. They all provide challenging hunting and most are great table fare.

The Editor talks to a couple of expert jet-ski fishers and gets the lowdown on what makes a good fishing Personal Watercraft (PWC).

Other features include an unlikely tale of fishing gear lost and found in the remote Mohaka River wilderness and much more!
