    Grouse, season start, and snares

    I am a Coast Guard licensed charter captain & state licensed fishing guide for over 30 years. I run boats on Lake Erie up to 60’. I handle thousands of fish taken by sports fishermen every year. Fishing is definitely the cruelest thing you can do to an animal. You bring that fish up from over...

    Cimarron this weekend?

    I hunted near Marion yesterday a little. Even back roads were pretty good, but to get into a field I had to wade thru snow way over my knees. I drove out to Syracuse today & after Larned, there was only 2-3” of snow. None near syracuse. It was raining a little about an hour ago

    Brush pants with zipper legs

    Dan’s also makes pants & bibs that have no canvas or denim, these are solid nylon & are briarproof. These are made in SE Ohio, in Amish country, probably by Amish. Ruffed grouse or raccoon hunting in Appalachia is way tougher than any place I have hunted in the plains states, or MI, or WI, or...

    Brush pants with zipper legs

    I wore WOW,(Wick Outdoor Works), chaps for 40+ years, & still do occasionally. My go to now is: I bought 2 pair of nylon faced Walls pants at Gabe’s for $10 each. I had my canvas guy put heavy knee high YKK zippers in them for another $12 each. If it is wet/snowy I wear gaiters over them. If it...

    Brush pants with zipper legs

    Buy whatever brush pants you like without the zippers & then take them to a canvas repair shop & have them put heavy duty zippers in them.

    Yips

    Well, major league baseball hitters can see the direction & speed of rotation on a 100mph + baseball coming straight at them. A pointed 40 mph phez, maybe only 10 mph when it first gets up, 10 feet away, flying on a diagonal, SHOULD be easy, even for an old man like me. Maybe thats why goose...

    I try to always look for the red eyepatch on phez. If I do not see it, I will miss most of the time. If that bird & I make eye contact, its a bonus, I am gonna crush it!

    First time Pheasant Trip SD

    Yes. Impossible to carry enough water for dogs. We would hunt an hour, or maybe 2 first thing in the am for grouse. Later in the day, for phez, we hunted close enough to Pass Creek or one of its offshoots to let the dogs get water & wet whenever they wanted. Setters in the early day, English...

    Which Barrel First For Over/Under

    SXS that have a NON selective single trigger shoot the rt barrel first. SXS carry a whole lot nicer than an OU. An OU carries like a single barrel gun, not nearly as comfortable. It is extremely hard to find a 12 SXS as light as an OU. I used to have a Dakin SXS 12 that was 5 lb 3 oz. I would...
