  1. I used to hunt squirrels a lot with a 22 as a young guy . I had this wooden squirrel call with a rubber end plunger. it got old the rubber end rotted out. I was going to throw it away .I was outside at the trash can. i through away the rubber end of the call. For some reason I started blowing through the call next thing I knew I had crows diving in on me . I ended up keeping the wooden part of the squirrel call in my game bag. My cousin and I would be out grouse hunting that call was always good for a couple crows. 2058959929__1.jpeg.59c969c21bab061868797d4eb8916bfe.jpeg

  2. Dissapointed today. Made all the way down to the launch but last night some ice blew to the south shore. The harbor had too much to get out. From what I could tell it was 1/2" thick. Not worth it. Too bad cause the lake looked good.

  3. I use a Browning A-5 with a 2.5X Bushnell scope. I bought the gun the day after I turned 18, way back when all you had to do is walk in a gun shop and fill out a form.
    Belgium Browning light 12, topped with a Leopold 2 x 7 Buck barrel 2 and 3/4 Winchester preemption gold is my preference on ammo. The original gun was given to me by my grandfather. I kind of retarded the gun. I went with a Benelli super Black eagle same scope 2 x 7 Leopold . I use the same ammo but the guns also is chamber 3 inch . Then County when rifle. Muzzleloader I like the TC Omega have and it also has a 2 by 7 Leupold scope on it

  4. I never fished the finger lakes until I moved to Seneca County 27 years ago, i was always a walleye fisherman on Oneida Lake. Not living far from Berry's Bait and tackle on route 5 and 20 and Roy's Marina . I used to go to Berry's and ask him the how to questions to fish Seneca Lake. That's where I bought my copy of the Holdren handbook (I think it was about $6.50)I read that book from cover to cover I don't know how many times till it was embedded in my brain. I learned how to set up a seth green rod and fish it the old school way. I still got least one rig rod going in my spread. I now fish a Seth green rod with new school gear. like spin Doctors and flies dodgers and flies cowbells and spinning glows and so on .Less I look forward to reading your book too, and I enjoyed meeting up with you trading stories and techniques I'm still using your googly eye flies and your beaded spring clips. Happy holidays to you and your family. Thanks Brian .

  5. Not a question it needed repair and the repairs could have been done long ago.For the people that come from out-of-state used the Lake a couple times a year paying an extra few bucks no big deal. The people that have an empire pass and the local people that use the launch on a weekly basis are going to have to pay on a regular basis. If New York state takes the launch off the list I'm concerned they will do this at other launches also . Will have to wait and see I guess . Maybe pay to get into the park and pay to use the Marina..
