I picked this Savage 1899 250-3000 up last year when a friend offered it. Carried it once during deer season and filled a doe tag then put it away. I don’t feel like it fits me well so I’m trying to decide what to do with it, but before I make any decisions I want to know more about it. Does anyone have any information or thoughts they can share ?

Fished 5:00 to 11:00 and did 4 kings, 1 steelhead and a nice Atlantic. Bunch of releases we couldn’t connect on. Fished west of the creek in 180-250 fow. Best water was 225 fow. All rigger hits on spoons. Watermelon and red with pink spots was best.

Had a chance to get on the water early today before the steady rain came in. Fished west of the creek to the beach. Water was green to clear but overcast helped. Fished sticks and spoons from 10-30 fow. Went 4 for 4 with 3 browns and a steelhead. Best stick was a perch and best spoon was SS88. Brown water was east of the creek. Water levels going up. Docks at launch starting to get wet.

Took my buck yesterday up by Rochester. Didn’t finish the job last year so taking one early was a relief. He was scraping and marking the whole way in and left a scrape trail 100 yds long. He didn’t go far but I could have tracked him by his stink. Things should be getting more exciting every day for the next few weeks. Good luck everybody. Be safe in those stands.

Took the advice off the posts and fished marks in 85 to 95 fow most of morning. Patience paid off when the water settled down. Boated a fat brown and 2 matures. Only one laker and the skippies are still around. Took everything on green/white/black spoons and Sutton 88s. East/west trolls were best. Good weather and good company. Not many nice days like this left before hunting season.

I had an experience today that caught me off guard and I'm trying to figure out how I should feel about it. I'm looking for opinions. A small piece of property (40 acres) I've hunted forever in Cattaraugus county was recently sold and posted. Not that uncommon these days. The property is small but it's convenient and close to other huntable properties. The posted sign said 'written permission only' and had a phone number. My hope was that it may be an investment property or even a lease situation becasue it was such a small piece of property, so I called. The guy calls me back and tells me that he has no intentions of letting anyone hunt the property but he marked the posted signs that way so people would call him so he could tell them to stay off the property. This is a done deal in my mind. I have no desire, or need, for access to this property. I have no hard feeling towards this guy or losing access to the property. What has caught me off guard and has had me thinking about it all day is if this guy is a jerk or a genius for marking his posted signs that way. Is it necessary to bait people into calling? I'm interested in your opinions and whether your looking at it from a property owner position or from the position of a hunter looking for permision.
