I was actually thinking of new spots to walk in the spring a few days ago but that's a looong ways away. If I can kill him, I won't have to look for his sheds!

Maybe this will help you day dream. My buddy found these a couple years ago. 120s on one side, matchset though found them next to each other. IMG_1992.jpgIMG_1985.jpg

When I first saw them I was certain it was a pen deer because of the color. He is not as hardcore as most so I know he wouldnt go out of his way to show off horns he bought. Plus when I told him what it was worth he thought that was just stupid. Even though its a match only the unique one is worth anything. The shed is more impressive when its in your hands,real heavy. It had popped at the base sometime in velvet causing a double beam and multiple long browtines. If it was mine Id have a few grand in the pocket. I brought it to a buyer/seller and it would rank some where in the top thirties all time in north america for single horn, according to books. They were found in a bow only refuge at the time. I guess it prooves you gotta be lucky when shed hunting sometimes huh!

I don't know what all this talk about waiting is for. Picked up a 4 point side tonight!!!

*was doing some final food plotting and it was spotted in an area that has been sprayed twice, mowed twice, seeded, and shed hunted and it was finally found tonight. Hellen Keller may have been a better shed hunter...

      Heading up to LV a week from today with the kids. Any advice for us? Staying on the West side but open to traveling if the weather permits.   The way the last few weeks have gone, might stay for good!!!

      Do have Wi-Fi in your house. Your going to need that to work with any of the cameras that send a signal and video to your phone.  Hardwire is the best but battery power workers well for about two months then you have to pull them and recharge them.  It is nice to sit on a beach in Key West and keep an eye on your house when gone! 👌

      With all the craziness in the world I’m looking at getting an outdoor security camera setup for my home. Anyone have ideas on what works well without a huge cost  and easy to do . Or is it better to go with a company to set it up.  We have recently had copper thefts in the area at farmers fields and bin sites and I know it will only gat worse as these things always do. I probably want something that hooks up to my phone as well and wondering if there is a good one with either battery life or if wired is better. Any thoughts are welcome.

      Aren't they the ones that ran into problems about illegal bait? Anyone know how that turned out?

      You launch on Moose Lake to get to the motorized portage. It's called Prairie portage. To get to the portage you put in at Moose Lake. From Moose you go into Newfound Lake. From Newfound you go into Sucker Lake. On Sucker is where Prairie portage is. There is a dock on the American side and on the Canadian side there is big sign welcoming you to Canada. Latourell's Resort runs the portage and the cost for the portage is $40 for a round trip.

      Will that blond haired kid have that cool little orange boat in the show this weekend? Saw him driving around by Muskego Point a few times this summer.

      Nope, there are parts of Basswood that allow motors.   Entry is from Fall Lake, and there is (I think) a motorized portage.   It is really popular in the spring...
