    Baiting Lawsuit Continues

    Only issue tags in areas outlying the grizzlies core habitat. That would target more problem bears, and if killing boars results in a population increase, then issue more tags. Who cares what your justification is for a grizzly season, as long as it creates a hunting opportunity and eliminates...

    Baiting Lawsuit Continues

    So reducing their population density has no effect on their behavior? I’m not a bear biologist, but I would have to think they act more aggressively when competition for food is greater.

    Good luck selling your house. Hold out for what it’s worth. Home buyers are fickle and petty when looking at houses, but the right buyer will come along

    I get it, but we raised our family in that house, as a hunting family, and I built the house by myself. I wanted a like-minded person to buy the house

    When we were trying to sell our last house, we had some negative feedback regarding the number of dead animal heads on our walls. When my wife asked if we should take some down, I said ‘no way’. I didn’t want some anti hunting a-hole to own the house we had made our home for 12 years.

    I did not kill that one. A friend found it freshly killed on the road outside Richmond Virginia and I talked him through the caping process and he shipped it to me. I did the taxidermy myself with a rack I had laying around. It turned out really good and gets a lot of comments and questions

    Favorite Beer

    pretty much anything deschutes brews is good. Kona makes a good pale ale, I think it’s called long board. Day tripper pale ale. Tough to beat big sky brewing company’s scapegoat pale ale. My every day beer is michelob golden draft light. Reasonably priced and good beer taste

    Turkey Recipes?

    I love the flavor of wild turkey and think you guys are crazy for making sausage or flavorful sauces for it. To each his own. I cut mine in 1/2” thick strips across the grain, lightly bread them and deep fry it. Get all the wild flavor that way

    2020 Turkey Picture Thread

    Wife got her second turkey tonight. The toms just wouldn’t cooperate and skirted around us. After several morning and evening sits, she was getting a little tired of hunting, so when 3 jakes came by I was more than happy to have her take one.

    Brought my cousin out this afternoon and he took his first turkey. He was so excited I could feel him shaking the blind before the shot. People say he and I could be twins, but I just don’t see it.

    2020 Fishing

    We went to the east cape in March before covid reared its head. Fishing wasn’t great, but we caught and released a lot of small grouper and kept some Sierra and a dorado right from the beach. Fun trip.

    Reusing fry oil

    I fry a lot of fish all year. I use peanut oil, filter it through cheesecloth kind of material while still pretty hot. I have used the same oil dozens and dozens of times over a several year period, and have never had the oil go bad. Never a bad smell or taste from it. I actually prefer oil...
