Biz 2021 Journal

[BizCT]

 

1/2/21: New year, new journal. Went out with the e-caller today for predators from 3-5pm. It was 20mph winds which I’m sure didn’t help. I saw nothing. Also fixed one blind, but the other one is busted for good.

If just one or 2 of the fiberglass rods broke..  you can replace them..  I have replaced them with fiberglass snow blow markers..  cut to length, drill a whole and use a bolt or rivet...

Thanks. The one that broke has been thete several years and we seldom use it. I don’t think we are going to replace it

The snow load broke one of the poles on a cheap pop-up blind that I picked up at Aldis a few years ago.   I had saved the poles from a 10-man tent that blew out of my trailered boat one time, while I was southbound on Rt 81.  

I never liked that huge, modern, fiberglass pole tent, because it was such a pain to put up.   We could never figure out what side was supposed to be the front, and where all the different sized poles were supposed to go.  An old, aluminum pole, cabin-style Wenzel, that I picked up for $20 at a garage sale later that summer, is so much nicer. 

When I saw the huge canvas lift up out of the boat in my rear-view mirror, I put the hammer down.  I can still picture the lovely sight of that disliked tent canvas floating away into the sunset.  

I found that big pack of poles,  while I was cleaning my barn yesterday.  There are a few different sizes in there, and I am sure it will be no trouble finding one to fit the old pop up blind.  Just in time for ice fishing season.

My brother bought a house last week in dutchess county (3G) with some land. I took a quick walk last Monday and saw a nice buck rub. My dad went back last Thursday and found this shed at the base of it. We threw a cam up and got some cool pics this past week.

You hunting turkeys this Spring Biz? Not here much so I probably missed it if you posted somewhere you are going after the wiley birds.

Yup, I'm going to give it a try in 3N again. Not far from that cell cam is where I found the Tom's last year.
