    Gas/Fuel Price and hunting plans

    I got priced out of most big game hunting a few years ago. I can afford it, but I would like to retire some day. Points, license fees, travel expenses, etc., all add up to more than I am willing to pay for admission. Not sure how that looks for the future of hunting when more people come to the...

    I created a Muskie angler last week. Shortly after my daughter caught her first Muskie she landed another big toothy fish.

    Tray o fillets

    We spent the last 2 days battling the heat and harassing walleyes. I would like to point out that I caught 2 of the fish on that tray. The queen of the canoe caught the biggest, 30.5”.

    Your preference with trigger lbs?

    I can’t believe how light of a trigger some of you are hunting with. I’d fire before my crosshairs were settled with some of your rifles. Especially with gloves on. Around 4 pounds is good for me. Maybe I’m just tougher and more handsome than the average hunter 😀

    Bowhunting whitetails from the ground

    I’ve shot one buck and a couple of does with a bow from the ground. As I get older I’ve been doing it more for various reasons. Ghillie suits may seem ridiculous, but I’d consider at least the top. A mature whitetail buck is arguably the most difficult animal to draw a bow on. Drawing from the...

    Will white tail bucks come to a rattle in early December

    All my experience rattling has been in low density deer areas. Like others have said, I have found it to be effective for small bucks, throughout the season.

    Turkeys

    Late season boss. I can’t even think about fishing when I have a turkey tag in my pocket. Now it’s time to fish.

    Turkeys

    Wisconsin turkey camp is in full swing. Part of my bird from Saturday was just used as fuel for my Fort McCoy hunt that starts tomorrow. As much as I poke fun at Wisconsin, the driftless area is gorgeous. It’s become one of my favorite spots. I got a bunch of maple syrup from an Amish house that...

    Any hockey fans out there?

    Yeah my post got lost in cyberspace for a while I guess.

    Any hockey fans out there?

    I wouldn’t be surprised if Denver wins the tournament. They’ve been hot.
