Guppy,

It isn't up, and maybe is even down a little, but I launched there Friday with no issues.

A guy with a Ranger "Walleye Boat"  launched right after me, so I'd say he is deeper than your Targa.

Just keep your motor trimmed up until you clear the wall.  

Thanks for the quick response!

Has the water level come up at all over the last two weeks?  Looking to launch at Dean's with a Tracker Targa V-18 sometime this week (possibly Wednesday or Thursday).

First shot heard in 8T this morning was at 5:47! I was walking to my stand at that time and it was so dark I couldn't even see my hand in front of my face. Makes me wonder if it was an accidental discharge.

Little predator control from the stand this morning.

Nice 8. He might be 3.5 yrs

The picture makes him look a little bigger than he actually was, but it is possible he might be a 3.5 year old. Either way, he got a free pass today and should be a shooter for me next year if he survives!

Had a good sit this morning. Passed on a 2 1/2 year old 8 point at 10 yards. Ended up seeing 7 deer, including two yearling bucks, the 8 that I passed, and a nice 10 point that was chasing a doe...couldn't get him close enough. Tough stand location to get into for a morning sit, so I went in just at daylight...got to see a nice sunrise from my yard before I left.

First heavy frost on the truck windshield/windows this morning....unfortunately I scraped them off to go to work.  Felt like a perfect morning to be in the woods!

OMG I think I am targeting the same buck!  To be sure, could you send me the location of the buck’s bedding area?  Thanks ahead of time. 

 

I didn't realize there were so many people that hunt on Whaler's property....thought yellow fourwheeler guy and myself were the only ones...

Checked a couple cameras today that have been set up for a little over a month now. Got a lot of good pictures, but mostly night time activity. This is the 3rd year that ive been watching the very symmetrical 10 point, and my second year targeting him. With the most recent set of pictures, I've finally figured out his bedding location. Now to just wait until the time and weather are right!

I've had quite a few pictures of bucks sparring on camera over the past 2-3 weeks as well, but they should start breaking up real soon now.  I'm excited about this season, I recently upgraded to a new crossbow (Wicked Ridge Invader 400), and bought my first ever muzzleloader (CVA Optima V2 Nitride).  Can't wait to try them out this season.  Good luck to anybody that is heading out this weekend!

This season has quickly snuck up on me, but I'm excited to get out there! Here are a few of the better bucks that's I've gotten on camera so far this year.

Does anyone know where i can find some nightcrawlers near Deans cove? I'm renting a place near Dean's Cove for the next week, and I've got 4 young kids that are eager to do some fishing. We've got a boat and plan to do some fishing from the boat, but wanted to get a few dozen nighcrawlers for fishing from the dock as well.

Thank you! I will have to keep an eye on it as the date gets closer!

If you go to the link provided above - www.fingerlakesanglingzone.com - you can go to reports and look back through years of reports - the majority of which are on Cayuga.  John (the guide) is extremely knowledgeable on all finger lakes fishing.  Check out some of his reports from July timeframe of previous years to get an idea of areas/depths that he was fishing at in the past.

Well after a frustrating week and half of dealing with trespassers, poaching, and camera theft I am looking to just put the shotgun season in my rear view mirror. Every year it amazes me the a$$holes that enter the deer woods. If karma exists I hope it gets to every single one of these a$$holes. I can only hope late season is a more enjoyable.

 

Rob, I saw on a Facebook Trail Camera page that someone bought some "air tags" and put one inside of each of their cameras.  I don't know much about them, but the guy stated that if one of the cameras was stolen, he would be able to trace the location with his phone as long as the thief had something with bluetooth near the stolen camera.  He claims he tried it out with his son and it worked, so maybe it would be something to look into, just a thought.  It sucks that you and so many others have to deal with tresspassers and camera thieves so often during gun season.

Well I cut it close, but I'm all tagged out for the year. 9 point with bow, two big doe and a 10 point with rifle. Congratulations to everyone else that has harvested one, and good luck to everyone during the late season!

I have the CVA paramount .45 and it’s incredible. Easily the most accurate production muzzleloader available. The accura doesn’t hold a candle to it. The only thing better is a true custom smokeless and that will be another grand. 

Thanks for the suggestion, I'll check that one out as well!

I’m looking to purchase a muzzleloader for next years season, and after reviewing some of the content on Legacy’s thread over the last few years, I’m kind of leaning towards the CVA Accura LR-X.  I’d like to be able to shoot out to 250 – 300 yards, so I was leaning towards the .45 cal. instead of the .50 cal. for two reasons.  From what I read online the .45 has a faster twist rate (1:22” instead of 1:28”), and should also have less drop and better trajectory than the .50 cal.  Just looking for some advice on whether this is a good route to go?  Chromeslayer also recommended the possibility of having a CVA Scout V2 45-70 converted to a muzzleloader, but I don’t think I want to invest quite that much.

 

Also looking for a recommendation on a decent MOA scope that would be best for that muzzleloader in order to shoot 100-250 yards without breaking the bank too bad.

This piebald hangs out near my work. He knows where he's safe, and it's quite obvious that he eats well too!

Thanks guys, now the countdown begins until gun season so I can get a chance at one of these two
