It should be redhot this weekend. I hear the area next to the Island in front of the heavy equipment on the shore has been good. Candy corn has been a good color. I'll be there Sunday.

Good luck fishing

Outstanding, had a literal blast. Our wild birds average 17lbs. Killed one 18.25 with a 10inch beard. Shot another right at 9inch and weighed 17lbs. It is as mucxh fun calling them as it is to harvest one. Hey got any good leads on a reasonable deer hunt in Canada. Want to harvest a250lb pls monster

I might be able to set you up some time I own about 1000 ac, up here. This year the smallest one we shot was 255lb. 11 pt. biggest was 285lb. 8 pt. most deer avg. about 275lbs. and score 130 to 170 I'm in the the oufitting business up here, but don't do deer hunts some of my buddies do.I hunt near where they shot the Dryden buck. I use to live in Selma AL. where I hunted turkeys hard. A gobbler is the only thing that will get me up at 4am 10 days in a row.
