Wife and I took trip to Santee, lake Marion. Landed over 500 lbs of fish over two days. Fish over 25lbs all released, cooler was usually full by noon and everything after that released as well.

No kidding. I just got mine last week. I already wore sunglasses or safety glasses all day, but its definitely been a change.

I can't wear them. My eyes are too dry. I've tried several different times with all kinds of brands.

And they are more expensive than glasses. But, that doesn't matter to me.

It does take some time to get used to them, but I couldn’t imagine having to wear glasses all the time. Sweat and fog alone will kill it for me. I’ve been in contacts since about 7th grade, and it took a few months to get used to them but I have no complaints these days.
 
LASIK for the ultimate win.
 
Big news


Gov. Josh Stein signed a law on July 7 authorizing North Carolina’s first modern elk hunt, with two permits set to be awarded for the 2027 season.

House Bill 747 allows the state Wildlife Resources Commission to issue one permit through a public raffle at $20 a ticket for residents, and one through an auction run by a conservation nonprofit to generate dedicated conservation funding for elk management.

Proceeds go toward managing the herd, and at least half of any raffle permits are reserved for North Carolina residents.

Eastern elk were wiped out in the state by about 1800 and reintroduced to the Great Smoky Mountains in 2001. The herd now numbers roughly 200 to 250 in the western mountains.

I figured. Thats how VA does it. You pay to enter the raffle, then buy the tag if needed.
 
Just learned about this yesterday.

Maryland has wild, open range SIKA DEER. Non resident tag is $200. Season only last two weeks. Nov 28th through Dec 12th.

Three deer limit. Only one antlered.

Nice chance to bag some Asian miniature elk meat for cheap!

But pack your leggings, from what I gather, they like swamp.
