The main reason I don't do what Californians do is because there are no ground squirrels in PA, and I believe none on the East Coast. Plus I find that more often then not Californians do a lot of things "Bass Ackwards".
All rodents taste pretty much the same , Rile .
BTW , Pa. does indeed have ground squirrels , they're called woodchucks , and young ones are pretty tasty . If Pa. is anything like Indiana then you can hunt "whistlepigs" all year round , and many farmers will let you snipe them at will and may also even pay a small bounty for each one that you shoot . This is also a great way to gain later access for other hunting too . Maybe those "bass ackward" Californians are on to something good ?
