Smells like fish

Later on in November I am planning a project of Paiute deadfall for raccoon and 24 ga brass wire for squirrel snare. Snare on a leaned up 3-4” diameter log. I hunt the same area yearly and I am familiar with trees and area they are always on the ground. I’ll be living in the woods there for near a week. I can’t see the deadfall working for squirrel as I am only baiting both with what the area provides. Minnows or bluegill for the big deadfall and acorn or hickory but perhaps a persimmon can still be had as they are in the area. thoughts or advice?

I enjoy just about everything that walks swims or crawls but I guess I’d choose deer as that has always been my most commonly ate regular woods feed.

Congratulations on your deer. Don’t forget that bad shots are often recoverable if weather and coyotes allow. I want to give a liver hit 6-8 hours and a stomach hit 24 hours. Any shot that isn’t known where it hit but isn’t found within a hundred yards I’ll back out 12-24 hours too. If you hunt with modern equipment and adequate poundage I have found the wide cut of mechanical heads a big advantage and that’s coming from a man that has killed dozens with Bear Razorheads of the old days as one example.

That would have made for my fav day at school!!

Yep, tell us how it happened so we can avoid lol

I love this pic took on my sisters porch a few mins ago, it looks like something invading from space!!

On the skinny side too.. 2-3 lb if it had lunch before it got accidentally hooked ?

We have about a 30 to 1 ratio of copperheads to Timber Rattlers here in the southeastern hills and of course all the friendly varieties. The western part of Ky has plenty of Cottonmouths

It amazes me that there is still people that hasn’t had it

As I was planting my sweet corn this morning I was thinking of those sneaky raccoons. It’s gonna be a fight between bugs birds and raccoons over me getting a nibble of my own corn

Just shy of 6… was a beauty before the spawn I bet

Being a creek fisherman, it is the jerkbait, balsa model all year long

Just in lures alone, it is mind boggling! I’m not much of a fisherman but those lures is a dam disease!!

Disappointed is too strong of a word but I am surprised that I haven’t caught a single fish on any my Deps Buzzjets… it’s starting to get to me ?
