Corey and Joey hit up the less famous Beaver Tailwater (White River system) over a couple days and got into some nice browns that are upriver for the spawn. Beaver isn't a favorite amongst us but sometimes it can really shine if the water and weather is right. I forsee a streamer trip to this piece of water sometime soon if we can get some generation. The boys did well...
DonnyB took his annual trip home for muzzleloader season to put some brown on the ground and get some venison in the freezer. Luck was on his side as the 1st morning out he put down a pretty decent buck and filled his tag. Then a few days later, his hunting buddy got a shot on a 150"+ buck but sadly missed the big boy. 325 yards is pretty far for a muzzleloader, even for an Encore. There is meat on the freezer though, that's all that matters...
Chris and I hooked up with the rest of our duck hunting crew for opening day in our part of the state. Sadly, waterfowl numbers was way down this year for opening day. It took us all week to find any birds to make it worth even going out. We were able to scrounge up a few ducks on a new lease we picked up the week before. Having 23 ponds to choose from has its advantages! We didn't have a stellar morning but we were able to put down some birds before calling it quits on Saturday. On Sunday, we found a few birds on one of our local holes and just a few us got after them for a couple hours. Again, just a few birds were put down but it was worth showing up. Got some redheads in the bag which is kinda uncommon for our area. We were content...
Lots of options to fish or hunt at this time of the year in our area, so get outside and go get 'em! You know we are...
