Except for all the CWD threads popping up like spam. Doesn't anybody have anything interesting to talk about???
 
Tough time of year for sure. Nothing too interesting on my end. Just fertilizing, seeding, minimal shed hunting.....

Funny enough I walked one of my best properties for two weeks tans found nothing. Go figure I'm up by the barn and there laid both sides from one of my dink 3 year olds 20 feet apart. He's nothing more than 115 inches, but nice to find.

I've been getting the boat ready for walleye fishing and that kicks off on April 15th here. I've been catching eyes and sticking our gravel put with them. I checked with the dnr and it's legal to take legal sized fish from public waters and place them in private providing it's not connected to other water. I transplanted 40 last June and I'm looking for another 40 this year. It's about a 8 acre spring fed pit that's 20 feet deep. They should go nuts in it. Once finished it will be connected to the neighbors and be about 80 acres.
 
It's go time for me on the farm chores with projects, plots, scouting, farm prep, etc. it's gonna be dead til some monsters start showing up on cam in July.
 
Burned off the garden today, , pulled some trail cams, checked cards on others, built a greenhouse to start tomato and pepper plants, and then went fishing.
 
Hunted snow geese a few times. Managed one. Got so disgusted with the skybusters I may be done for this spring. Yard work.. Planting garden stuff inside. Getting the mower ready for action. And playing with our new pup.
 
Been shedding, doing house projects, working. I could do a post on trying to kill gophers in my hay field, but wouldn't be much other than punching holes in tunnels, throwing poison in and covering up...besides finding new mounds! Would post a harvest pic if I was trapping and got anything.
 
I posted about the sheds I found while driving...that generated two comments... nice weather has people out and about
 
I've been slammed with ridiculous deadlines at work, which aren't really interesting and griping here won't make things better. I've been out a handful of times shed hunting, but only found two old broken elk antler pieces and two old mule deer sheds. Was hoping to snag some fresh brown, but its been a crazy shed year and I haven't been able to find anything. I did, however, just start an elk hunt journal for my daughter's upcoming elk hunt. Hopefully that will liven things up a bit as it progresses. And I start three consecutive weekends of turkey hunting next Thursday, so that will keep me both busy and away quite a bit.
 
I started teaching driver's education three weeks ago, so my time has been eaten up! I got to shed hunt only a handful of times and without much success this year. Getting a few new food plots put together soon hopefully. Other than that, just looking for deals on trail cams, etc. when they pop up and always buying more equipment.

Taking my younger cousin out next week for some second season turkey hunting hopefully we get lucky.
 
its gong to be mid 70's- walleye are biting and the beers are going to taste great at the ICUBS game at 12:05 today- going to be a very rough slow moving day I can tell!:)
 
Daredevil right here! Just keep your foot over the cheater brake! Oh, and you are teaching them how to drive a stick, right?

I got sweet talked into by our Superintendent. Sounded like a good idea a year ago, now that I started it and I'm not getting home until 7-8 every night makes you second think the extra money!!

The last thing I am going to try and teach is a manual that is for sure! For the most part, it has been fun. Very time consuming, but lots of laughs.

Yeah, I would think it could get pretty interesting trying to teach a kid to drive a manual. Tried to teach my wife a couple times. Didn't do too bad, but I was sure glad we stuck to the back roads with no traffic! However, it is a nice skill to have sometimes. Although, nowadays you don't even have to stick the key in the ignition, cars brake on their own, and parallel park themselves, so I'm sure fully autopiloted cars are on their way.
 
I'd post some pics but I'm lost on resizing with the wife sleeping, I got lots of them since the last time I visited this site. no deer pics but just Alaska big game and trapping stuff.
