They say the hunting public average age is declining and it got me to wondering how old everyone on here is. My family is a hunting family. I have 13, 15 and 24 year old grand nephews, 30,35 42 and 47 year old nephews that hunt and my self at 67. Got a couple 5ish year old grand nephews that want to be in the woods with dad looking for deer tracks and rubs, so we cover the whole age spectrum. Can't say I influenced them all but if they wanted I always took them along scouting,putting up stands,had them involved in skinning and butchering,shot bows and guns with them and hunted with them and cooked and ate the harvest with them. So back to the question. HOW OLD ARE YOU?
ME 67

Found a little state access to the beach so fished the surf. Don't know what I am doing but had fun. 1 white fish (great eating) 2 sail cats (as good as any cat fish and 1 I do not know. But will find out if it is good tasting. I know a lot of people here would not keep fish "that small" but I am useto cleaning 8 in perch and 7 in bluegills so no big deal

It is 75 here in Florida. It is raining but I am happy with that because it is not white and fluffy. I figured out how to pay for my vacation with other people's money. What I am going to do is tomarrow I am gona go to the beach and have moma take pictures of me in my speedo. When I get home I am going to look in the mail box and if there are not envelopes with $10 in it from each person on hunt indiana I am gona post the pictures of me in the speedo here. I should charge more but sence you all are friends I am gona let you off cheep. If you saw me in a speedo you would gladly pay a hipmitest a hundred bucks to make you forget what you saw.
Thanks for the donations. I really appreciate it.

Accident in down town Louisville stuck 30 min. Spent night in Bolingreen KY. Next day hard rain all day. Drove 40 mph on interstate because could not see for 10 min. Ran wipers on high all day. Got stuck in accident traffic jam some place for 20 min. Stayed at Miranda FL. Good weather next day. Had I10 shut down for accident. 30 min in traffic then routed us off I10 and had to go around to next I10 entrance (saw some pretty senery) problly lost an hr. But we made it. Sitting hear eating bacon and eggs then gona go to store and get groceries for the week and do some exploring. Suposto be a dock acc streat owned by the place we are staying so gona find out if I can fish it.

We are suposto get 6 in of snow big wind then the -0 cold. I don't care. We are heading for Florida tomarrow as soon as we get out of Dr appt for a week. Gona stay extra day on the road so we donot have to worry about the weather if we left friday morning. car packed and ready to go. Also got a couple fishing poles. May drownd a worm or two. What part of Florida you headed to? You picked a good time to go for sure! Sébastien, fl,Indian river on oyster bay. Couple hrs south of Datona. I saw this cold forecast few days back and ask her if she wanted to get out of here. She said YES!!! So I got on the net and started looking for a place that was warm. Got a two bedroom full kitchen on the bay. Never been there but reviews were positive. When I look at reviews i throw out the it was great and the it was horrible ones and try to read between the lines on the rest. It hasn't failed me yet. If all are it was great I figure they are fake and if all bad I figure true. This is an OUR vacation so problly won't do much fishing. Will do thrift stores,good will,cremedic shops and pawn shops plus bunch od driveing around looking at scenery. If it was a my vacation it would be focused around hunting or fishing which I do every now and then

I follow a trapping form but do not trap. I am wondering what is the benefit in dying traps. I know some take new traps let them rust then die it then wax them. If you wax them to keep them from rusting why let them rust to start with. If the wax is to cover sent won't the wax pick up sent any way. Why not just just set the trap "out of the boxes to speak. I do know that most that set traps in water do not do all this dying waxing stuff. What is the difference.i have set a couple traps in the back yard to get problem coon and ground hogs but never went thru all the prep thoes guys do and got my critters.. was I luckey? I have very little knowledge on trapping and any information will be appreciated.

url=https://postimg.cc/8jWkmbV8] [/url] i.postimg. Went thru the cell camera pictures tonight and found a couple pictures of the buck I got this year. I did not know he was there as I did not pull cards till after I got him. There was a couple other decent bucks on the cards from December so I may get a shot at a good deer this comming season. Well crap. Something did not work right. Gona see if I can fix it.

Not quite live from the woods but went out about 30 min ago to get an armload of wood for the woodburner and watched a doe and 2 yearlings run/ fast trot accross front yard. Not a normal thing. I see deer once or twice a year here at the house.

I'm thinking of taking my muzzleloader scope and putting it on my .22 to help with accuracy. Of course I would need to sight it in. Anyone else think this is a good idea? The little rectangle open sight on this gun has always been hard for me to aim properly, so I figured that the scope would help If it was me and I could afford it I would get a second scope and leave the one on the muzzeloader. Two reasons. First my eye sight is not good any more and I pretty much need a scope to shoot accurately any more. Second is if you decide to put scope back on muzzeloader the cost of amo to re sight it in could get expensive along with if you decide to hunt with the muzzeloader you have to allow time to transfer scope and resist in. A scope for a 22 can be had cheap as they donot have the recoil of a larger gun. Onebentarrow
