Just had 15 Turkey come into a shooting lane about 25 yards out. Those guys are lucky it isn't turkey season Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Call deer search! Don't feel sick, he may not be far at all. I doubt he'll be more than 200 yards from the spot you bumped him Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Liver shot. I would start tracking till 12 the earliest if I was you Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Up to 7 deer already. Unfortunately I spooked all but 3. This last one came in behind me and I didn't hear it at all. Hopeful for the rest of the morning Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Saw 3 doe. Unfortunately one of them heard a plastic bottle my dad had in his pocket and snorted like crazy. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Just making sure I have everything I need basically. My gear is as good as its going to be right now, so its mainly just what clothes I'm going to wear tomorrow and what ill bring with me.

Congrats! Any deer with a bow is a trophy.

Id take the shot if a legal bear walked by me. If I don't like the meat, I know i can donate the meat to my archery club at the very least. Im sure there are plenty of guys there that would love it. I hear its great, but make sure its always well done!

These pics are killing me. Im going hunting on Sunday and all im thinking about is going up to the river next week. Hopefully there are still some left in the river for me.

That's he reason I only go for like 4 or 5 days one weekend a year. I always say I want to go up for steelhead in the beginning of novemer, but I can't pull myself away from the rut Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I heard yesterday it was really going off on the river. This cool down towards the end of the week should mean a nice push coming Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I say go to the burlap blind since you have seen him there the most. I'm sure they'll start going to the acorn flat most often. I guess wind will have to be the main determinant for where you go Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I agree with you! That's why I'm not saying I won't harvest him if he comes in range. I'd like to keep to a 120" minimum because I like to set goals for myself, but happiness is the best goal you can set out for yourself Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I only ever care about gross score. I never liked he idea of taking points away because they antlers aren't exactly even. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Congrats! Cant ask for anything more than a healthy baby and healthy wife in my opinion

I know you guys will get this question a million times this season, but Im curious what you guys think about it. I think he's around 110 but id love to hear people say he's more. I'd like to stay to a 120" minimum, but this would be my best bow buck if i got him. There's also one slightly smaller so probably that one will be over 120 next year.

The steelies should start coming in heavy in a week or two. Coho are one of my favorite fish to catch in that river (besides steelhead) and they taste much better than a king. Never hooked a fresh king like that, but I hear they fight amazing Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Leave some for me why don't ya! Awesome job though. Some real fresh looking kings there. Hook into any coho? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Personally I say that i'd shoot that guy. Maybe I would think differently if I saw him in person, but most likely id let an arrow loose. As far as age, I agree with everyone else and say its probably a 2 or 3 year old. If you pass and no one gets it next year, it'll really blow up in antler size for sure,

Those small 1-3lbers taste the best though.

Ya that's my go to striper spot in June. That's when the big girls show up. I've had many nights with double digit stripers above 30". You really have to watch the tide because it'll leave that whole mid flat exposed at low tide. Yes the exit to the cross island is terrible there. Another thing that's bad in LNB is the mud. You step in that, and your in some serious danger. Great fishing from a boat or shore if your not wading. The no see ums also really suck there. Went out today for like 40 min and the bunker were everywhere. Just giant schools each direction you looked. Didn't look like they we're being harassed much though. Hopefully they'll be there tomorrow with some friends. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I actually prefer catching a big blue over a big striper anyday. Stripers can put up a good fight, but not like a blue of the same size. It's just that the blues don't taste nearly as good as a striper. I also don't feel bad when I catch a big blue versus when I catch a big striper due to the sad state of the striper stocks. I appreciate the advice. I heard the same thing, once the people start hitting it hard it becomes a dead zone for keepers. I'll be hitting it on opening day from the beginning of the incoming till close to dark. I know of a good spot in LI that holds them that I can tell you if you want. Not many people know about it for blackfish either. I'll be hitting little neck bay again tonight and I'll let you know how the action is. Usually there Marina is a good spot for them because the bunker will school up there, but as you know it's not a guaranteed thing. TC- If you ever find yourself down in the city or Long Island and want to do some fishing let me know. I'd be more than happy to take you out so you can experience some new fishing and species.

Hopefully the fall will provide some good bluefish. Chasing these huge blues can be pretty exhilarating and really get the heart pumping when you see them blow up on a popper. Ill be fishing for blues every so often and once blackfish season opens up then ill try that a few times. Ill do some salmon fishing and then focus on deer hunting starting mid October.

Ive been fishing with waders for a long time, so i know how fast they can fill up. Wish I could tell you another story of another big blue I aught today, but I got nothing. I didn't see a single confirmed bunker sighting so the blue's just weren't in as thick. Ill try again tomorrow evening.

Thats great! I can't tell you how excited i am to go up there this year. The run has been great this year so im hoping for another great season like we had years ago. Once you fish there enough, you'll switch to a fly rod and reel eventually. I always fought switching to a fly set up, but let me tell you its much lighter than a spinning set up and much easier to fish.
