      Hunting Tactic Question

      Sit down and watch a bunch of videos from The Hunting Public and the Hunting Beast. Listen to countless deer hunting podcasts and end up overthinking everything. I'd wait until after a rain when you can sneak in close, assuming the wind is in your favor, and hunt a trail coming out of the...

      Bambi whacking thread 2020-2021

      I've used Clint's Cuts for a few years and like them.

      Bambi whacking thread 2020-2021

      Got it done Saturday evening on some public land in Montgomery County.https://saddlehunter.com/community/index.php?attachments/dsc07260-jpg.36665/

      Tree Saddle

      My saddle is more comfortable than my climber, hands down. I'm a leaner and use a platform. It's really surprisingly comfortable.

      Tree Saddle

      Another saddle hunter here. I've done it for a couple of years. The system (saddle, platform, climbing sticks) is more compact going through the woods than my climber. I'm always attached to the tree (i.e. safe) and it's pretty dang comfortable. I shoot my bow really well from the saddle...

      Emergency Food Storage

      I think that's what I'm going to do. We stocked up with enough stuff to last is a while but I'm a little concerned with things unprotected from pests (rice, snacks for kids, crackers, etc). Square cat litter buckets would work perfectly.

      Patuxent river fishing and crabbing questions.

      Plenty of blue and channel cats up and around Jug Bay, in addition to snakehead. It's the usual freshwater contingent of fishes. I'd stay south of Benedict's for crabbing. The DNR website has a map of public ramps to check out.

      Smallwood State Park Fishing

      Tons of largemouth are around the shoreline at Smallwood State Park. There are snakeheads and blue catfish, too. The area to the left of the ramps is popular for shoreline anglers. There should be bass and some decent panfish (redear, pumpkinseed, bluegill) in the marina area along the riprap...

      MoCo School Drills..

      Thanks for the insight, Norton. I'm happy to see this is being done (and you can't argue with "run like hell"). I know the odds of an event happening are low, but I like seeing this. Realistically, self-defense isn't much of an option for a bunch of little kids...

      Public lands and Hunting. Declining numbers of hunters

      I've been hunting since I was 12 and hope to pass it on to my boys (currently 3 and 5). It's going to be tough considering where we live, culture and society, etc. But to your point, you're absolutely right. Other user groups are going to have to pony up funds in order to maintain what we...

      Sunday Hunting. Why not?

      I'm fairly certain you're mistaken. It has everything to do with outdated, unnecessary blue laws and resistance from certain user-groups (e.g., equestrians). If hunting pressure via Sunday hunting increased enough to appreciably increase harvest, bag limits would be adjusted. It blows my mind...

      Public Land Deer Scouting

      There's a group of young guys producing content in YouTube called The Hunting Public. Check them out. They're doing a series about scouting public land now, with a new video released every few days or so. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLJt23cZw3yJelCXZBOa7KYFHHlYMREHXR

      2018 Fishing

      Just finished fishing the creek behind the house with my almost 3 and almost 5 year olds. Had a blast in the sand and mud as usual, but caught our first smallmouth (6 incher) back there. I was more stoked than the kids.

      Who has 12 ga flats cheap?

      For anyone interested, Academy usually has flats of something for $0.20/round with free shipping. I've purchased quite a bit from them.
