Don't forget that the "power stroke" on a crossbow is much shorter than a 30" compound length. This is partially why you double/triple the draw weight to achieve the relative same speed. You could have a 400lb crossbow but if the stroke is only 6" long you're going to have poor performance. Sent from my moto g fast using Tapatalk

Always use a white headlamp, you aren't sneaking past deer because you have a different color headlamp. If white light was so off putting to a deer then why do they get ran over by the thousands in traffic? Ever spotlight deer? Do they run at the sight of light? No. Deer aren't spooking because of your light, they spook because your noise, your smell, your cadence is unnatural to them. Anyone who says they don't use a light isn't going in or out in the dark, period. Dark adapt still only works with some additional light, and takes quite awhile for eyes to adjust fully.

They did notice the fish weights seemed off, that's how this all unfolded. The director of the LEWT handles these fish almost daily, he said he's usually always within a pound. He saw 4lb fish all tournament and when these guys fish hit the scale at 7.9lbs he knew something wasn't right. There is a podcast online where he describes the events of the day. Get off of your alcohol kick as it has no merit in this conversation and is extremely unfounded. You clearly don't have much experience trolling, as trolling is very labor intensive and calculation based. I have 5X more to pay attention to when trolling vs casting. These guys aren't throwing a line overboard and putting the boat in gear. You're just trolling and trying to get off on your superiority of bass vs walleyes, which also has 0 merit.

These guys in particular started out pretty dismally in tournament finishes, and they had a fast turning point and seemed to have "hot" days a lot more often than typical. One of the partners had actually failed a polygraph after a big win also, part of it gets written off as jealousy, but I highly doubt this was their first time cheating weights.

That drunken mob were the guys that had most likely been cheated for several years by two scumbags, guys who pour a lot of time and money into their sport only to be cheated would make anyone irate also. There are cheaters in every sport, especially where it's advantageous financially also. You think there aren't people on this very site even that would cheat or poach for some sort of notoriety?? If you believe that then your naive. You are really talking from the wrong end here, you formulated some messed up thought and now are forming a narrative around it. Sometimes I think you are either really lonely/ bored or have had a few too many cream ales to think clearly. Sent from my moto g fast using Tapatalk

You have no idea what you're talking about, just stop. The guys in the crowd were beyond mad because they'd been cheated out of money and tournament standings. Alcohol in major walleye tournaments is not a thing or the cause of this. Saying that walleye fisherman are drunks is about as ignorant a statement, but I consider the source.

I see little difference in baiting vs plots. To put it in salmon terms, snagging is illegal, but drifting a line through their mouth and setting the hook is legal, both are snagging. Feeding deer in a pile or a patch is the same difference to me. To each their own, I really don't care either way. Sent from my moto g fast using Tapatalk

You may be right. What I'm saying is that they should address the nomenclature as "restricted" or "no restrictions." A sportsman restriction is STILL a concealed carry permit. My permit says "concealed carry" on the front face, so by only addressing the entire bill as "conceal carry", it's deceiving. All permits issued are "concealed carry" in this state. I know what you're getting at, I'm simply saying that referring to "conceal carry" is a "no shit, they all are conceal carry" moment to me, whether they are restricted or not is a separate classification. Sent from my moto g fast using Tapatalk

They're all "concealed carry", NY does not issue any other type of pistol permit. They did not specify anywhere in the troopers information any distinction, they only mention, "concealed carry." I guess I'm not too sure that I'd have to write a judge to remove restrictions when the whole premise of the Scotus decision was to not have the burden of proof for no restrictions? Where did you see that you must write a judge to lift any restrictions? I realize it used to operate that way. Sent from my moto g fast using Tapatalk

My question is being that all permits are "concealed carry" are they only referring to "full carry"? Or is a sportsman now considered in the "no 16hr course needed" also going forward to be considered no restrictions? They don't mention "no restrictions", simply "concealed carry."

It isn't, it's the legal form of snagging... Sent from my moto g fast using Tapatalk

Couldn't keep them off this morning. Sent from my moto g fast using Tapatalk

If you have a boat, I'd highly recommend going into the estuary and casting crankbaits for salmon. It's much more fun getting them to crush a thunderstick than snagging them in the river surrounded by 100 people. You won't "hook up" as many times as in the river, but you're looking for the aggressive fish that snap at baits. If you've ever pike/muskie fished then imagine a fish 3 times the size smashing a plug. I started out in the river but haven't fished it in 3 years now, the people and the snagging aren't fun to me. I'll resume the river fishing in November when the steelhead are in and the people are out. If you want specifics on where/what to use let me know. Sent from my moto g fast using Tapatalk

Squash looks like you have some blossom rot. I've had it in the past, I found that adding calcium to the soil solved my issues. I bought a few containers of tums and ground them up and mixed into water. Seemed to do the trick for me. I now add calcium before I plant every year and haven't had it since....

Haha. I typically do real well now that they're on more of a pattern, and the bugs are gone. I boated 10 eyes this morning, some shorts and some barely 15's that I didn't keep. Sent from my moto g fast using Tapatalk

Guys on YouTube/forums have killed deer at 100 yds with 10mm. I'd be comfortable at 50-60 with the load, situation depending. The 3 MOA red dot should aid in better shot placement also. Sent from my moto g fast using Tapatalk
