Nice job!!! I also have celiac disease so it can be tough at times to do a good fish fry. My wife always uses the Ian's Panko style GF crumbs - they are great!! Thanks for sharing Chris

You may be surprised - good genes and forage and he may only be a 1 1/2 year old. Agree - manage bucks that by taking your finger off the trigger. Thanks for sharing the pic! Chris

Same here - deer are still in their summer feeding patterns and I have many doe on my cameras but very few bucks right now. My property is very similar to your situation although there's pics of a few daytime core, smaller basket rack bucks. That being said, once the rut kicks into high gear, the bucks really start chasing in our territory and the cams really seem to pick up lots of daytime activity of travelling beasts looking for their mates. Jeff Sturgis' book Mature Buck Success by Design is a good book which focuses on some of these theories, and it has been a good read this past year Good luck, Chris

Sickening scum of the scum of the earth......so sad.

Awesome stuff Scott!!!! It makes me so happy to see what you've done. It's crazy to see how the grass has come in!!! Looks great. There are some big boys roaming out there - good luck this year and be safe. TTYL, Chris

Hey Scott, Awesome job on putting in the plots on the new property!! The clearing work you did from the fall looks superb! Good luck this year - I'm thinking of putting in a plot in Darien at some point. I'll have to pick your brain in the future.... I can't tell from the pics where the location is on the old property, but the deer used to hit the area north and west of the ridge quite hard where it leveled off heading north. Good luck bud, Chris

Look at Waffler Nursery in Wolcott. They have disease resistant "Wildlife" packages of trees that are fire blight resistant. The pricing used to be $200 for 10 trees that were bare root stock and they deliver them to your door. Be careful of Lowes trees as some varieties are not suitable given that they are not disease resistant. If you think you're just going to drop a few trees in the woods without fencing and wrapping to prevent girdling of the bark, or pruning and have a nursery in 3-5 years, you're wrong. The deer and smaller critters will destroy the trees, especially the new buds without protection. QDMA tree planting is tough and takes preventative maintenance, but in the long run nothing can beat a pear tree on fruit production for your wild game. Good luck gents, Chris

Hey good buddy - as always it was great fishing with you once again this year. Despite very tough conditions through reports around the lake, you stuck with a plan and put meat on the deck. You were extremely generous every time we went out - never asking for a penny for gas or tackle. LOU friends - Anthony is a great captain and great friend and I've learned a ton from him over the years. Every time I go out with him I learn something new. Thanks again bud - great times, great times!! BTW - I thought it's Barry "600 copper" Hayward.....not Haywood....lmao!!! Cheers, Moe

Beautiful! Will she be coming home by land or by sea?

+2 for Pultneyville Grille, but they're closed on Tuesdays...... Great higher end food and drink

Great report - thanks for sharing I wonder if you have a beehive on your boat? Good luck, Chris

Disagree - this time into the fall can be the best time to buy a boat and get the best deal c/w spring. Folks (like me last year) do not want to pay for winter storage and it can also be an easy time to do a sea trial since many boats are still in use. Many good deals can be had this time of year. Good luck, Chris
