Ignorant Comments About Killing Tigers
justtracytrolling replied to Tiger Stalker's topic in Musky, Tiger Musky & Pike (ESOX)
The comments are absurd and the article is almost as poorly written. I dont even know where to start....welcome tiger stalker! I guide on the lake and much of what i hear is overstated....i have hundreds of days on the water in the last 5 years and i haven't seen any evidence of intentionally wasted fish....i see several released fish that dont make it...but there isnt any obvious intentional damage. We should be vigilant, but lets not get too upset from hearsay...the tigers are doing very well and big fish are getting common. -

The moldings on his website are done similarly to what ive seen, but raised art is carved.

What ive seen isnt solid plaster

The only guy in my area doing this type of stuff uses brown and finish plaster over styrofoam and fiberglass mesh that is screwed on with plastic washers. This is done on exteriors too. They use red hot electric shaping tools to carve the rough design out of foam.

What's this really costing us?
justtracytrolling replied to Big Water's topic in Open Lake Discussion
I love taking people more than catching fish so it was an obvious fit. As far as making it profitable...thats not why i do it. Im self employed and Tracy and I are at the lake EVERY weekend or it wouldnt be possible. I love the challenge, teaching, taking kids, and meeting new people. I get a mix of fishing with customers, friends, family, tournaments, and solo...i wouldnt wanna give up any of it! -

I bought a several bsa scopes and they are junk. Can you look thru it and will it work...yes. Once i started buying better glass i couldnt stand to shoot them any more. As an example, out of 4 scopes, which i spent between 100 and 200 on each, on 2 of the scopes the turrets work backwards and the other 2 forwards...all are catseyes....basically if you are sighting them in to get the point of impact to move up you move "up" on the turret on 2 scopes and down on the other 2....same with elevation! Went thru a bunch of ammo figuring that out...they are junk

Coyote or Wolf? Another pic added
justtracytrolling replied to Total Chaos's topic in Big / Small Game
Back in the 80's and early 90's we used to see lots of coyotes that were much larger and were wolf crosses. One of the first houndsmen to run yotes in NY told stories of having trouble getting some of his pelts sealed every year as they looked so much like wolves. He has huge black one mounted that the DEC did testing on and it was mostly wolf. As far as color goes coyotes come in about every shade from white to black... -

Not for me to say anyways what someone does with their legal catch....but one can always hope for a safe release. I really wanna see a 50 come out of Otisco and it isnt gonna happen if we dont let them mature....40 is a beautiful fish and tons of fun.....but by no means full grown and they fill out tremendously between 40 and 45.

I havent skinned one shot with a 17 wsm but the 17 rem does one of 2 things...if you dont hit solid bone it just pokes a hole thru or its a mess if you hit em anywhere solid. All depends on if the bullet expands and fragments or if it just passes thru. Pros and cons to both
