Hey guys, sorry i didnt get back to all of you. Hopefully next spring you'll be looking for some baits, pm me if you haven't already! College has really taken a toll on my free time. Thanks for all the support tho!

All the baits have worm oil and some "bear juice" added to them to keep them fresh and smelly. Grampy, i do indeed have smoke color, biz i have root beer which is an orange color and fehyd, i have watermelon and can add some green pumpkin ink to the rootbeer for a more crawdad color. PM me guys!

Trying to get started with my own soft plastics company in the albany area. Made with CNC aluminum molds and have senko style worms, swimming senko style worms, drop shot worms, and swimming shad worms. $4 a bag. This is how the big, modern day companies started, so I'm trying to do the same, one step at a time! Fresh out of college as well. Thanks

I would probably say western NY has the healthiest and largest bucks of ny state in the largest numbers per square mile. But, if you're talking about small areas with giant bucks, i would say any suburb outside of larger cities usually have some slammers in them. Deer have adapted so that they can live in small strips of woods and suburban areas also have lower amounts of hunting. If you have the proper habitat of food, water, shelter, good genetics, along with barely any hunting pressure, youre going to have some slammers. Its just too bad that they usually get killed by cars instead of going to proper use. In my experience, parts of niagara county have some monster suburban deer, albany county has a lot of big suburban deer and areas down near NYC and long island have some big ones as well. Along with that, the deer in suburbs are used to people. I've seen deer that will not run from a guy in camo in the middle of the woods within a suburban neighborhood, but I've also seen deer bolt from the same thing. That being said, I'm sure nothing really beats the feat of harvesting a truly wild monster buck taken in western or central ny.

Well I don't know about everyone, but here in east-central NY, the turkeys have really been gobbling a lot the past few days. Today at the golf course where I work, two toms gobbled over 70 times each. Driving around and seeing less cars on the side of the roads but more turkeys out in the fields all fluffed up! I mentioned in a previous post about two weeks ago that the turkey breeding season had not kicked up yet due to the late winter, guess my theory may have been correct! Now I just gotta get a gobbler in the dirt, good luck to all and keep hunting, do not give up yet!

I hate to disagree with ya deerpassion but I am still a firm believer that the mating season hasn't started yet! The late winter weather to me makes me think that the gobbling we've heard in the last two weeks of april was the first phase of gobbling which signifies the flocks breaking up. Sure there are a few hens and toms ready to get going early every year, but somethings telling me that their main breeding period hasn't happened yet. Last year they were gobbling their first phase in the first week of april. And to back my point up, the first day off the season, I had four mature toms with a dozen hens walk through my yard after shooting hours. They were all still together!! I strongly urge all turkey hunters reading this to keep going strong, and don't give up because I really think that the season has yet to kick off. If everything I predict goes correctly, the next week and the following week should have the most gobbling action.

Hey guys and gals, just wanted to see when you start scouting for spring turkey. I know some folks think the turkeys stay over the fall in the same area, but from what I've seen, they move around more than most think. Do you think they'll be out by the end of the month? Already itching for May 1st.

All I know is that they must release them a lot over the winter. I can't go one car ride through partridge run without almost hitting one on the way home. They are everywhere along sickle hill rd. Some even survived the winter last year and saw some chicks. The best spot, where I see the most pheasants, are right at the beginning of high point rd off sickle hill rd.

Hey guys, I have some containers of mousies and hot pink spikes for sale. I'm in the Albany area and am selling 25 ct containers of mousies for $5 and 25ct hot pink spikes for $3. PM me if you have any questions! Thanks and happy holidays

The coyote population has skyrocketed in this area. I live in the suburbs of 4J off of font grove rd and have coyotes running through the backyards of houses almost every night this time of year. Two years ago is about when we started seeing them and it seems like there are more and more each year. There are still plenty of bruisers around though. Keep to it

This time of the year until late October I'll use straight doe urine or buck urine with tarsal gland on the scrapes. I would only buy local because I think it all depends on the freshness of the urine. The fresher the better. Don't support the mass producers because half of the time or more, their scents aren't from the same month or even past three months once they get to the shelves. I buy tingleys northland scents.

One thing that I've noticed is that once they get into their fall and winter flocks, they use the same pattern of places to feed and walk, about every three days, sometimes less. If you see fresh sign, say 45 minutes after they left, just go there the next three days 2 hours earlier than you did before and I guarantee you will see some turkeys. They tend to roost in the same trees every night if they are comfortable and not pressured. Find that area and you're set. If you're having trouble finding their roosting sight, just remember, anywhere where there is a lot of acorns, they won't be far, especially if you've seen sign. Hope this helps

Def a big doe. Is this in 4J? Massive does everywhere in that unit
