Pygmy

A friend of mine shot one some years ago and had it mounted setting on a nest...Cool mount....

I see no advantage to the longer barrel.... My Rem 11-87 has a 21" bbl and has always worked fine.....

Over/ under ?? I thought you shot an 11-87.....

No gobbling here....Saw one hen wearing her long johns...Called in 3 penguins and a polar bear...

Bummer, Larry....Hope you get better soon...We'll save a couple for you....

So sorry for your loss, Tony..... I have lost several treasured canine friends over the years... Just don't let the pain of loss prevent you from getting another dog... Several of my friends have decided not to get another dog after losing a beloved one, and I think that is so sad... They are cheating themselves of the enrichment of having another treasured family member...

Powerful enough for a man, but made for a woman.....Heheheheh...

I just creamed my jeans and I'm not even a handgun guy....

Tomorrow morning is the first day of my favorite month... Weather is not going to be ideal, but it is what it is... Good luck y'all, and hunt safe.... I hope to read some success stories on here tomorrow....

Sweet...Don't let THAT woman get away !

Wrong war...Vietnam....my ship's home port was Fort Schuyler, da Bronx.....

The Mermaid and I are having our second one Wednesday.... No reactions to the first one except when I woke up the next morning my testicles were lying under my pillow... I regarded it as strange co-incidence......

Last time I crossed the Tappan Zee was in 1973.....How many of you Westchester Rugrats were alive then ??

Very cool, Crappy...I have never seen one except on pictures....

I have not, Mike, but I haven't fished the river much this year..However, if you check the NYDEC stocking schedule this year, it says that the 2 year olds they are stocking in 2021 are browns, but the yearlings are all rainbows... I have only caught one rainbow from there in my life, and I figured that was either a stray from the hatchery or perhaps from a private stocking on private land from perhaps Castle Creek..

My sister's first ( of four) husbands was a huge Eartha Kitt fan... He had a female black lab that he named Eartha... I thought it was a stupid name for a dog back then....Still do, as a matter of fact...Hehehehe...

Dawg....My dad always told me to use a good simple "call name"....Hence some names for my dogs have been DAWG, DOC, PETE and GEORGE....I think a good name for a female would be LULU ....

Reminds me of an old girlfriend of mine, Dirty Edna.... She was fully feathered too, and I heard that she is now playing the flute down at Mabel's House of Pleasure in Hoboken, NJ...

About damn time....PA has had 12 as a minimum age forever, and some state have no minimum...

Refer to my reply ( circa 2014) to the OP concerning deer hunting.......Lots of good turkey hunting available too...

I was hunting in PA a few years back and stopped on a road along a big valley to listen... A tom was gobbling on the other side of the valley, near the bottom of a big hayfield.. I drove over to the other side and walked out to a wood's edge on the uphill side of the hayfield from the gobbler. The hill broke sharply, so I decided to belly crawl the last few yards to the field edge... Once I got to where I wanted to be, I took the rubber band off my Lynch Foolproof box and set it aside...I was careless and the paddle slipped down across the lip and made an audible, if unintentional CLUCK.... The gobbler immediately lit up and marched up across the hayfield and I killed him without ever making an (intentional) call...

The longest spurred gobbler I have ever killed 1 9/16 " and needle sharp.... He wouldn't answer any hen calling.....I was on my way back to the road and bumped him, and from the area he flew into I guessed where he was likely to roost the next day.... I got in well before daylight and set up a popup blind on a field edge adjacent to where I suspected he would be roosted..I set out a single hen decoy.... About a half hour before sunrise, he gobbled, and he was less than 75 yards in the woods directly behind my blind.... I figured that being that close to the field, he would fly down and check the field for hens, so I decided that calling to him would only confuse things....I stayed quiet.... He flew down and walked into the field as I had expected...Strutted toward my decoy and I shot him at about 30 yards from my blind.... Sometimes the best call is no call at all... I think a lot more hunts have been ruined by overcalling, than by undercalling..

It's your money, but before I shelled a lot more $$$ for another fly rod, I'd learn to use the one I have... An 8.5 ' 5 weight rod is a pretty good rod for all around fishing, small trout streams included...

Cool, Jerry...Feed 'em to the fox pups !

Compared to the damage and death toll in the rest of the country incurred by Antifa and BLM, it's like throwing a lawn chair off the Titanic to reduce the weight..
