Even without the drop tine, that is one cool buck! Add the drop tine and it is amazing! Nice job! Congrats!

My 10 year olds first deer tonight in Wisconsin. 6 pt, busted off left side. Best moment for us together in the woods ever. 81 yard shot. Double lung!

Great buck Knight! Love those heavy split browtines. He was a big old swamp bruiser.

Congrats to you and your boy Abndoc! That's good stuff right there.

Phorn, is that the 8 point in your avatar pic? looks very similar.

I absolutely love checking cameras, getting pics of multiple bucks / deer then having encounters with those deer. Even better if you can harvest "the" one you want and put him on the wall and put a nice framed picture of him next to the mount.

I believe it is. I had so many pictures of different bucks. He wasn't the biggest I had. Those dam deer are so darn smart.haha I think checking the camera is part of the fun..I should really sit down and go through my pictures and count how many bucks I had pictures of. Even though you don't see half of them when the season starts its still fun taking there pictures. I'm a hell of a deer hunter with a trail camera.

phorn. nice deer!!! congrats.

I agree on the trail cams. Almost every buck we shoot we have pics of, very cool. Trail cams really dictate where we hunt, no doubt.

Nice buck phorn!

I couldn't agree more! Multiple years of pictures AND SHEDS is the ultimate! Going full circle with a whitetail buck! Nothing better to me!

Here is a pic of a great buck my 7 yr old shot in Missouri on the 2nd weekend of their gun season. He came in chasing a doe and stopped 18 yards and he made a perfect shot. Funny thing was we literally rehearsed the scenario just 10 minutes prior as I kept telling him no matter how boring it can get things can change in a hurry so always be ready. It was his first deer and was a moment I will never forget!!

That's awesome Jeff! A moment that will be remembered forever. Congrats to that young man and to you for sharing the outdoors with him.

Its in the photo....AR-15 .223 I wanted something with light recoil and adjustable stock for him as most youth model rifle stocks are still a bit too long for him to get a good shooting form. I thought it was better to be able to move up in calibers than force him into something he would struggle with. He LOVES shooting that gun.

That's awesome Jeff! Lucky 7 year old! for sure.

Congrats to everyone else as well!

I was able to shoot this deer the 16th. I had him on camera in august in velvet and hadn't seen him all season either in person or camera, just goes to show that they will come around eventually. Same thing as last season, had him in August and didn't see him again until the day I shot him. Passed a ton of immature bucks through bow season and the first weekend of shotgun and the patience finally paid off again... I spotted him working a ridge about 120 yards out and grunted at him to get his attention and hit the can call and he came on a string, shot him at 20 yards as he was still coming. Pretty exciting.... not sure who all uses the "can" or who has luck with it, but this is the 3rd buck I have shot out of this tree in the last 3 years and the 5th out of 6 years that I have called to my tree with the grunt/can combo.

Nice deer Stratos. Yes, I've had great luck with that same call combo several times over the years. Anyone not carrying these around the rut is really missing out on a great opportunity.

I scored a 8 pointer while out with the muzzleloader on Tuesday. Biggest buck I have ever shot so I am pretty happy. full-2507-39921-img_20131203_150747.jpg

That's awesome. Snow and now bitter cold has put an end to my season. That's okay though, Im happy with the way rifle went.

      Nope not me.  May want to go nextdoor and ask around?

      Looks to me like Leech brought his chair home!!😅😆

      I'm not there, so I can't tell exactly what's going on but it looks like a large area of open water developed in the last day with all of the heavy snow on the east side of wake em up Narrows. These two photos are from my Ring Camera facing north towards Niles Point.  You can see what happened with all of snow that fell in the last three days, though the open water could have been wind driven. Hard to say. .

      Black Bay had great ice before but a few spots near rockpiles where there were spots of open water. It looks like the weight of the snow has created a little lake in the middle of the bay.

      On the south end...   Thanks to some cold spring weather, ice fishing continues strong for those still ice fishing.  The bite remains very good.  Most resorts have pulled their fish houses off for the year, however, some still have fish houses out and others are allowing ATV and side by sides.  Check social media or call ahead to your favorite resort for specifics. Reports this week for walleyes and saugers remain excellent.   A nice mix of jumbo perch, pike, eelpout, and an occasional crappie, tullibee or sturgeon being reported by anglers. Jigging one line and using a live minnow on the second line is the way to go.  Green, glow red, pink and gold were good colors this week.     Monster pike are on a tear!  Good number of pike, some reaching over 45 inches long, being caught using tip ups with live suckers or dead bait such as smelt and herring in 8 - 14' of water.   As always, work through a resort or outfitter for ice road conditions.  Safety first always. Fish houses are allowed on the ice through March 31st, the walleye / sauger season goes through April 14th and the pike season never ends. On the Rainy River...  The river is opened up along the Nelson Park boat ramp in Birchdale, the Frontier boat ramp and Vidas boat ramp.  This past week, much of the open water skimmed over with the single digit overnight temps.   Areas of the river have popped open again and with temps getting warmer, things are shaping up for the last stretch through the rest of the spring season, which continues through April 14th.   Very good numbers of walleyes are in the river.  Reports this week, even with fewer anglers, have been good.  When temps warm up and the sun shines, things will fire up again.   Jigs with brightly colored plastics or jigs with a frozen emerald shiner have been the desired bait on the river.  Don't overlook slow trolling crankbaits upstream as well.   Good reports of sturgeon being caught on the river as well.  Sturgeon put the feed bag on in the spring.  The bite has been very good.  Most are using a sturgeon rig with a circle hook loaded with crawlers or crawlers / frozen emerald shiners. Up at the NW Angle...  Ice fishing is winding down up at the Angle.  Walleyes, saugers, and a number of various species in the mix again this week.  The bite is still very good with good numbers of fish.  The one two punch of jigging one line and deadsticking the second line is working well.   Check with Angle resorts on transport options from Young's Bay.  Call ahead for ice road guidelines.

      With the drifting, kind of hard to tell for sure, but I'm guessing about a foot and still lightly snowing. Cook end!

      How much snow did you get on Vermilion? 
    • Mike89
      lake here refroze too...  started opening again yesterday with the wet snow and wind...  very little ice left today...
    • Hookmaster
      A friend who has a cabin between Alex and Fergus said the lake he's on refroze. He texted me a pic from March 12th when it was open and one from 23rd when it wasn't. 🤯
    • SkunkedAgain
      I don't think that there has been any ice melt in the past few weeks on Vermilion. Things looked like a record and then Mother Nature swept in again.   I'll give my revised guess of April 21st
