  1. I'd be happy to talk to you about it and message me if you'd like. Insurance is what I've done for the last 26 years and I write a lot of boats along with homes, cars, atv,s etc...
  2. The smile says it all. Congratulations kid that's a BIG walleye!!!
  3. That sounds fantastic!! I often take the morels and make risotto.
  4. Nice birds everybody. I finally got one Sunday morning along with some morels.
  5. Way to go Donna and Kevin!!
  6. Nice one and with a bow!! Birds were going nuts early but too many hens. Hunted til 8 and went back at 10 to give them time to do their thing. Called in a nice one at 10:30 and got impatient and whiffed on about a 40 yard shot! Moved a few hundred yards and had more birds gobbling but ran out of time. Back at it tomorrow but it's the most amount of birds I've seen in years on the property I hunt.
  7. I'm right there with you. I heard the first gobbles of the season on Saturday in the woods behind my house while I was raking the yard and saw a flock of about 40 this morning in the big field behind my house with several strutters in the crowd. That's the most birds I've seen in many years which is a good sign the population has come back and they survived winter even with all the fisher and coyotes and other critters.
  8. Excellent job on the video and thanks for sharing. You already got the part about wearing a life preserver in those water temps even if just drifting and casting so get back out there, catch more fish and show us what else you come up with.
  9. Got to love perch fries. I got a bunch at Lake George Sunday after beating up on the lake trout all morning and ate perch for dinner, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday and yes perch again last night I'm all perched out. Tonight will be venison burgers to cap off the 5 night ADK surf and turf challenge.
  10. I just got one for my Thompson Center venture 308 and the magazine wouldn't latch at the front so I had to sand down the plastic piece on the stock with a dremel tool to allow for the mag latch to close. Basically the plastic piece was too thick so the tab on the front of the magazine tab couldn't spring back but otherwise I love the stock. I also took sandpaper and smoothed out the inside of the mag well. It was like a 30 minute job to get it all set and installed. I'm getting another one for my TC Omega Z5 and going with the thumbhole for that.
  11. I used to go with my dad's friend when I was young and he had the old green cassette tape caller and just used the gray fox pup in distress tape at night. It worked great on fox and they would come running hard from across a field and if the moon was bright you could seem em coming from a ways off. We taped a big flashlight to the shotgun and it seemed like we kill one every so often but miss plenty as they came running in. There weren't any coyotes around then but plenty of fox. We have lots of coyotes around my house now but the few times I've tried calling them never had any luck but see plenty when I'm deer hunting.
  12. ttt Be ready to hit the hard water with a chubby!!
  13. ttt Just got both cutting heads sharpened by Frank DeLuca at Sharp Nils. Auger is ready to go for the season.
  14. Me too. Filled my buck tag second morning of rifle and been very patiently waiting for Monday for what seems like forever. Going to hunt 9 afternoons straight for a big one. Good luck everybody this weekend who's still out there trying to fill a tag.
