sergio88 Report post Posted December 23, 2011 It was so long ago, I don't remember any of the people who were there. I wasn't involved in the transplant. I was only at the gathering site for four or five hours, just long enough to take a few photos and interview three or four people. I suspected that it wouldn't be long before the Seris moved back. Bill Quimby Bill, I worked with Robert down at the PSE proshop and heard alot of great things about you. Thats really neat to know you were there when they first released the sheep on the island. I have spent 2 1/2 months watching these sheep and taking video & pictures. The sheep are still running strong on the island and have done great for them selves. This past hunt we seen 46 rams in two days of hunting which is really impressive. As for the javelinas... they no longer exist on the island. I did see plenty mule deer and a couple that would hit the 180 mark with ease. The Sires do not live on the island, but live right across the waters in their villages in Punta Chueca and Desemboque. This hunt was lots of fun and cant wait to get our next hunter on, which happens to be pete shepley! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chef Report post Posted December 23, 2011 Great pics, and thanks for sharing the adventure. I stand corrected on the Seris living on the island though. I go off of what my family tells me. Best of luck with the PSE crew. As for Bill, yeah, we're lucky to have him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Coach Report post Posted December 23, 2011 Given that it's close to Christmas and we all dream of that "red rider" BB gun under our pillow. Imagine a hunt on Tiburon Island for rams that dreams are made of, and a voyage across the sea catching yellow fin tuna, el dorado and sailfish. And when the boat docks back onto the sand, with the sun turning into a red orb over a black sea, a warm welcome with a fiesta of colors and dancing and fire, shared amoung friends - all the bounties of the sea and land, lobster, crab, halibut, fresh picolte, a pig roasted over a spit... As a hunter, I have a dream of what heaven might be, and that would be my heaven. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
crotalus Report post Posted January 19, 2012 Sergio, it was really nice meeting you brother. I didn't put two and two together until I saw your pictures on your phone, LOL. You've got the dream "job" bro. Many blessings your way and may the Lord comfort you in a special way. Thanx for sharing, I'm still in awe of the sheep.
