  1. Tried for lakers but struck out, bounced around from 70 - 12 FOW walked at least 4 miles and drilled solid 8 everywhere.  Tough lake but buddy saved the day landing this rainbow

  2. Yeah business is booming at the bait store,  5:30 was a line out the door.  It's amazing the amount of people that enjoy the sport of sitting on ice. I was really expecting to pick thu perch all day and possibly get a walleye not how it worked out at all but could have been worse. 

  3. First trip to Oneida was a success landing my first ice walleye but definitely not on fire by any means,  bounced around depths on the west side  from dark to dark, managed 4 walleye and a few jumbos. Marks were few and far between with a lot of lookers and light bites that drop easy. All fish came off a small perch color spoon with a whole fathead in 23fow .  Tried buckeye, minnow heads , jigging raps just never got anything to produce an aggressive bite, most fish seemed to take off running at the sight of my presentation.  It was zoo out the with tents as far as the eye can see in every direction.

  4. Hunting -

    I gave my 18yo nephew a full partnership deal this year at my place giving him access to all the cell cams and stands,  he spent every minute he could in the woods while working full time, he harvested his first bow deer (doe) while I was in the ground blind filming for him. That deer ment as much as a 20pt buck to us that october night!  He put in his time and would passed several smaller bucks  playing cat and mouse with shooter bucks appearing on cam opposite of where he sat often.  It was down to his last bow hunt opportunity on a rainy Nov 10th Sunday evening,   he climbed into the stand early and txt me at 4 that he was soaked to the bone -  I said stick it out it's power hour and these deer have to move after the rain let's up,  4:30 my phone rings - "I  juSt.  sMokEd  oNe!!!!"   

    Smoke it he did !  A great shot on a great buck, His first bow buck and  memories we will never forget!  

     

    His father - my (brother and best friend)  passed away a few years ago , to say this means a lot to me would be an understatement.

  5. Anyone else ever wonder what year this thread got started or how , what year it got the most hits and views? 

     

    Wonder no more ! 

     

    Started in 2014 when in Robs words " My hope for this upcoming season is to post an ongoing hunting report (on this thread) throughout the entire season. Basically a play by play of the my entire seasonal progression and a ride on the emotional roller coaster in the deer woods. My intentions are to fill these pages with instant updates from the woods, game cam pictures, videos, rut reports, and whatever else that i can come up with. Let the season begin!" 

     

    Since then it kinda became the all members journal and live report that can have you hanging on the edge of your seat when the rut starts.

  6. I'd say if you pull 140s+ then it's worth 140k+   

     

    I know guys that own and pay taxes on 200ac that have never seen a buck over 140" in 20yrs of hunting due to poor neighborhood management..  a small chunk that holds produces quality mature bucks is priceless if you can provide a solid trail cam and harvest history.
