better to just spend the money on a good unit and forgo the frustration of a cheap one.

Big Snapper (not that kind Pygmy) eats a duck
erussell replied to moog5050's topic in Hunting Related Pictures
saw one snag a green heron on the chenango one time. i sloshed over and tried to save it but the turtle was huge and did so much damage it was almost dead by the time i got it off it. took it to the shore and put it out of its misery. Always have to watch your stringers at cole park to. had snappers trying to drag my stringer of fish off on more than one occasion. -
Weathers not helping out i guess. River started out low and warm which i guess isnt helping either. Ive even tried the fast water and nothing. seems like a 20,000 cast summer instead. Might get my Pa lic. and head over the boarder. lol

Anyone heard of or seen any Musky in the susky yet this yr? I usually have 3 or 4 small skis in the 40's by now. been beating the water for a month now and havent even raised one yet.

3 yrs in the 509th aiirborne out of fort polk La. 13 jumps out of c130's .141's. chithooks. heuys. and even out of an old russian biplane. i would rather jump at night in full combat gear than free fall lol. All The Way. Airborne!

ya shot it 3 times 40 yrds hand size group through the lungs. we just stood there looking at eachother. lol i reloaded and was about to shoot again as he walked off but finally tipped over. took him a while to expire. i wasnt to happy. if i had hit him higher i probably would have had to shoot him 3 more times.

anyone else have problems with copper solids not expanding in deer? i stopped using them when i had to shoot a deer 3 times to kill it. tiny hole in tiny hole out. i dont think they expanded at all. The last one i ever used on a deer i found it in the deers off side shoulder not expanded. almost didnt find the deer. snow on the ground no blood. but i found hair. so i followed it up and found th edeer 100 yrds from where i shot it. only blood was wher eit dropped. switcheod to lead hollowpoints and havent had a problem yet.

yes 5x15 bellow 3x18 above. i count 6 eyes and a brown. i thought he said he was on the res. tho ive never in 42 yrs heard of a brown coming out of the res. but stranger things have happened. unless he was in the river above the res. got a 30 in walleye one time by where the brown beaver inn was.
-
i take it you were fishing with someone else as the limit is 3 walleye

Almost as good as the trail cam pics some put up with salt blocks in them. priceless!
-
I wonder how the settlers ever stayed alive shooting all that game with pure lead ball out of a front stuffer? i would think the lead from a modern centerfire projectile would be minute compared.

grossed 128 and net 125

-

This buck showed up 10 min after I sat down in my stand for my first time out for the season on oct 27th. double lung went 40 yrds stopped and tipped over. just sat there like wth just happened. Taxidermist said it might make 130 135ish. he's sending it out to get scored when done. My shortest season ever and my largest buck ever lol

He had a funny rack because he had 2 broken legs at one time. suprised he lived from it. season ended well, ended up with 3 deer 2 bucks and a doe and a coyote to. The second buck i thought was a doe but he had grown bases and that was it.
-
No money to mount just throw him in the pile of racks i have already. One of the ugliest racks i have. lol. arrow hit right where i thought it did right above the shoulder and out the neck. must not have bothered him to bad he was covered in shavings from just rubbing a cedar tree. Didnt get the jaw bone might check it out once hes all bones though if the yotes dont drag it off. teeth were all black I assume from eating acorn's.

Well I guesss there are miracles. I had to work the night before gun so I put everything in the car and went to work. Got out at 6 and headed to my spot. After changing and walking to a ground blind i built last winter and settling in I said a little prayer and asked for blade to walk by. 10 min later he did. I dont know what else to say but thankyou Lord. Ask and you shall receive.
