    if you caught a 22lb 11oz stripper then you probably caught something else...

    appreciate the advice, but I treat all my boots/clothes that go into the woods with Sawyers. "Prevention" only gets you so far though. I was up in WI this Friday and I did have a couple crawling on me.

    My dogs get Frontline; but it doesn't stop the ticks from hitching a ride. Long as they don't bite first they can get brought inside.

    And as I mentioned; I'd never had a tick here at the house in the three years I lived here. I sprayed the yard as soon as weather permitted after that post- not another tick since.

    Hey, at least you turned the camera on.. I can't count on one hand how many times I have gone to check a cam and found it left on the setup setting.

    Isle Royal, Federal officials will be reintroducing wolves in an effort to control the moose population. It must be an island thing because on Isle Royal the moose population is growing fast, yet scant miles away on the mainland the Minnesota moose population is in peril. Yeah the wolves are not the problem, it is climate change.

    I hate to admit this but I mow and treat a path to the deer feeder as well as an area around the feeder to keep the bugs and ticks off me and give the deer a break from bugs as well.

    I guess that technically wasn't the Grammar Police...just the Icon Function Vigilante Squad, which I'm not sure is a Thing.

    Right now hunting wise my main rant is trail cameras. I have 10 dead ones on the shelf. Straight garbage. All different brands.

    I do abuse the hell out of them, but the money I’ve spent on cameras that don’t work is astounding.
