Zag

The guy demonstrated one and said to add some structure to it and some dead logs inside and leaning against for the critters. After we got some rain we had some frogs already in them!

My dad went to a local event earlier this yr on vernal pools. Within a day of it he was out making some on the land. As of now he's up to 4. All were dry till some recent rain. Now all have some water holding in them and they are already being used! They are pretty easy to make and can provide a good water source for deer. https://www.epa.gov/wetlands/vernal-pools

My rule of thumb is shoot doe for the freezer. That's the first hurdle then I an afford to try chasing a nice buck. I wont shoot the small bucks, they have to be 8pts or higher and ill pass them up waiting for the hit list for a short while during bow. I run cams all yr and know I have multiple small to midsize 8pts and a couple in a higher class. Gun seasons a game changer in our area. I'm yet to find the oasis they migrate to but I'm sure there is one.

I bought a Bushnell t cam a yr or two ago and lately I seem to be getting a ton of white flash and need some advice. Cam is located back in the hardwoods and faces NW. I will get one pic that's fine (on a gloomy day) and the next pic of the same deer is white. I don't have this issue with my other 2 cams. Any thoughts?

So so sorry for your loss

Gosh that things the definition of the word death trap!!

I just use my garden tractor and York rake. I make a bunch of passes to scrape up the dirt, spread seed and fert and drive the tractor all over to try and get good seed soil contact. has worked like a charm for years.

Hey Happy B-day my friend

First time camping at fc? We were there over 7/4 for the first time. Nice place I think we were site 170 something.

Cool, id call him beer bottle with that mass! Good luck

I get an occasional email about someone replying to a post that isn't mine?

Yeah super cool pic, I wish it was on one of my better cams. T cams are so dang cool I need more!

Grow, that pic was taken in the food plot were making, does and fawns have been all over in the natural growth,

Sorry the lens cracked so its not the most clear pic, lt kinda looks like a coon but I dont think it is, note at the top of pic you see tail feathers from another turkey. None the less a cool pic

Gosh I cant picture it, but ill have to check next time by, i wouldnt think so tho

Looks about the same size as the on I picked up on t cam last month. How about the one swimming across hemlock lake this weekend, big freaking bear!

Larry, we stayed at alpinecountryinnandsuites. Its just before you drive up to the top of w face. Its about 6-7 min north of whiteface. Nice place, quiet and cheaper than most places in whiteface.

done

I think glassing will give u alot of info and not educate them but once the corns mature your sol. I've hunted field edges most my hunting life. I was fortunate to have a farmer who did a few rows of corn then would have a few rows of wheat or beans then corn again. I could park a few hundred yrds out each night and see alot. It can help pin point where they are entering the fields. Remember they are on summer patterns and will change early October from what I've seen. One yr I kept seeing a buck in the field, one of the top bucks all summer. He came out in the same spot and almost the same time every evening like clock work. I knew I could possibly catch him on his summer pattern the first few days in October. I Hung a portable and hunted it the first night. Like clock work he came following two doe to the field. My mistake was I was setup to close to his entry point. Both doe came in sniffing around but continued past me. He stopped probably 30yrds out walked up wind to the west of me skirting me at over 30yrds out, I was full draw but didn't chance a long shot. His pattern changed after that. Had I setup slightly down wind I would have connected all based on glassing the field every night.

Can you glass the field from a road?

We bought a place on a fingerlake and have been looking around. I would keep searching for a decent used one. My buddy found a small used fourwinns for 6k 2 yrs ago and hasnt put a penny into it. I think for the limited summer life we have and the over inflated new boat prices i think used is the best way to go unless your filthy rich.

Yotes and snakes are in the same group for me, the only good ones a dead one.

Pretty sweet moogs, id have one hell of a bad ass attitude walking in the woods with that!

Haha, i was locked and loaded when i checked. Pretty cool opposum pic with the kids latched on.

Set up last weekend over i beleive an old coyote den. Got a cool opposum pic.
