NC4X4 Hunting and Fishing

[StretchASU]

First card pull of the year. Beyond happy to see the buck traffic and a bear or three. A few years ago I would be lucky to have more than a few spikes running around. The small property management projects seem to be paying off.

No it didn't. He'll be 2 counties away by hunting season

your probably right. im assuming this is the same bachelor group that was here early spring then disappeared until now. the taller 8 looks alot like a big tall 6 from last year. that no one saw, neither did the neighbors but had night time pictures off all season. i figure i have till the acorns start falling and his pattern changes so fist week or two of season or he will be gone.

I found this pamphlet from a taxidermist in 1988 yesturday, cleaning my man cave.....

I just looked up some prices and found WT shoulder mounts are about $750 these days. The last one I had done was $400 about 15 yrs ago.

Last coyote I had quoted was $750. Not happening.

Got this fella back a couple weeks ago though.

That's very nice, who did it?

I’m not sure, other pictures of him just look like his coat is shedding

A friend that does it mostly as a hobby, he offered to do and does a pretty nice job.

I guess the cool temps make them mountain deer shed sooner than the ones down here, the herd looked like this sat/sunday.

 

[Loganwayne]

Ya I guess so. Some look pretty rough, then we got some that have real slick good looking coats

You all have a lot of nice bucks! All I am seeing is skinny ass does..

Went to topsail a month ago and took the boat. Caught some reds, flounder and 1 trout. Went to wrightsville this past eeekend and fished off a dock and caught some nice flounder. It’s a shame they cut the season down to 2 weeks. I can definitely tell a difference in the flounder size since they have cut out keeping them. Caught 2 this past weekend 20” and 2 about 18” inches. Smaller ones mixed in as well. All off a dock. Just wish I could have kept 1 for the table

On a side note. Don’t have any cams out, other than security. Hope to have some out soon. Did draw a Kansas tag this year. So will be going there for the first time. Friends have been going for a while and have killed some nice deer.

Every time I read this thread I want to go kill and eat something.

 

[GONOVRIT]

Hope I get to see these 2 in a couple years.

Just got back a coyote last year. 450. My guy just called and said my 11 pt white tail shoulder mount is ready. Gonna be 550.

Took munchkin fishing for the first time.

First fish! "What is that thing?!"

 

[mommucked]

Getting ready for the doves....

That used SA-08 is now my favorite shotgun, 24" chrome barrel, it weighs about 5 lbs. I can carry it around all day and it never feels heavy. It mounts and swings effortlessly and is also a great rabbit gun in the thickets.
I've shot rabbits w the 410 that I inherited, this will the 1st time shooting doves w it.
