Ladder stand winch installation

Has anyone ever tried the winch installation system? I was wondering about the pivots you place in the ground and then put the ladder in it  to hoist up with the winch.  Can you get those pivots out later to use in other installations or do you have to leave them in.

The winch is awesome given you do not always have someone with you to help hoist up a stand. You hoist up the stand, have it leaning against the tree, lift it up and the pegs on the pivots fall out of the bottom of the ladder. You do not leave them in the ground

Elite Answer, QAD Ultra rest, pile drivers with Blazers, 100 grain Muzzys are my hunting implements this year but honestly my weapon of choice this year has been reading every book and magazine this off season that I could get my hands on and learning strategies of high vs low impact hunting, better stewardship of my land with creating cover/sanctuary, plans for food plots next year and making myself a better hunter through education.

We'll see if it pays off...........good luck this year and as always thanks for your great hunting thread

Wow!!!!!!! I'm speechless......bc I'm plugged up with so much moisture from salivating....

Spent all day in the woods yesterday checking some of the stands and mowing / clearing all the trails. When I got to one of my stands I discovered the whole tree is covered in poison!! Not sure what to do at this point...... any ideas on how to really kill this since I'm not able to reach the stand to even remove it with out getting it all over me!

Hey bud - even after you kill the leaves, the vines still are loaded with uroshiol which causes the rash. The leaves, the roots, the stems, vines..... you name it  they all contain the uroshiol.  Even the tree bark may have some on it after you remove the vines.

IMO, the only way to do it would be to trim all the leaves and then cover yourself with a throw away Tyvek painter's suit, climb up the tree and retrieve your stand and find a different tree.

Throw the painter's suit out after you're done

Congrats buddy!!! You deserve it!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Folks - Anthony is one of the nicest guys you will ever meet, with incredible generosity to others including me and a great passion for our fishery. He is very humble but he catches consistent fish both in quality and quantity without fancy electronics and without a down speed and temp indicator. He does it with great intuition and years upon years of experience.

WTG buddy - tight lines and many cheers,

Chris

Whent back to my property that I lease last night to see how the clover was doing a week after being mowed. Starting to come back alot better then I anticipated! I sprayed all the clover with to kill the grasses last night also. Mixture was 10 oz of Clethodim 2 E and 10 0z of 80/20 Surfactant ( crop oil) in a 15 gallon sprayer. Research says it takes about 2 -3 weeks to knock out the grass, so it's a waiting game now. Also sprayed our biggest plot with Roundup to kill the grass in that so hopefully next week I can get in there and till it up and plant Turnips and Winter Greens.

 

 

Can anyone help me with what kind of grass this is? It's covering a huge area that I sprayed last night but cannot figure out exactly what it is, almost looks like it was planted but it definitely wasn't.

 

 

looks like tall fescue to me

West coast streams are nutrient poor, and without the carcasses, there would be nothing to feed the invertebrates the young salmon depend on, so the carcasses need to go back.  In New York, the nearshore is overly nutrient rich, and basically only the streams draining the tug hill are nutrient poor.  We don't need the carcasses so much.  If you lived down current and had all that offal washing up on your beach, along with the algae and dead gobies and other c**p, you would probably like to see a 1 mile offshore restriction for fish cleaning.

Finally some science to back a claim!!

Thanks for sharing this very valuable information

Cheers,

Chris

The carcasses are food for the tiny critters at the bottom of the food chain. Imagine what happens if all the fish were removed from the lake if that would be possible. Salmon streams in Alaska require the carcasses to be placed back in the stream rather than landfill them. Millions of salmon spawn, die and become food for their offspring.

Tree ID Video - Understory Species

I made another tree ID video for my website.  This time we go over the smaller, lesser-known species that live in the understory of a woods.  Maybe some of you hunters will find this interesting.

 

Hey Pete - yet another great video!

Thanks for taking the time to do these
