    Utah Fly Fishing

    Recently relocated to the Salt Lake Area. Got a chance to spend Mother's Day on the Middle Provo. Here are some pics of a few of the better ones. The net is 17" long for reference. Can't get pics to rotate

    Utah Fly Fishing

    Definitely happy to have some good fishing in the backyard. I have never tried eating a brown. More of a "hook and look" guy.

    Eberlestock X2 Review

    I too have this pack. I find it to be perfect for day hunts but a bit awkward when packing game. It tends to be "top heavy" and really starts getting the shoulders barking after a bit. I have hauled coues, mule deer and javelina (2 at a time). I am 6'2" and can't seem to get it adjusted quite right. With that said... it is still the best pack I have found yet.

    Lot in Portal IV - Pine, AZ

    Here is a .pdf of the parcel map. I tried to blow it up some and keep the dimensions legible. Let me know if you have any other questions. Thanks Parcel Map.pdf
  5. $29,900 Due to relocating out of state for a job. My wife and I are selling our lot in the gated community of "Portal IV" in Pine, AZ. We bought this near the peak of the "boom" so we are taking a BIG hit but are ready to move on. We had always thought we would build a second home/retirement home (future) on this lot. I currently have it listed with a local realtor but figured there might be someone on here that would be interested and the extra exposure couldn't hurt. You can see the Zillow listing at http://www.zillow.com/homedetails/79-Ruin-Hill-Loop-Pine-AZ-85544/2109065548_zpid/ For some reason Zillow is not locating the lot correctly in the community. It is actually on the corner of Ruin Hill Loop and Turquoise Cir. Portal IV is a gated community and is regulated by an HOA. They do not allow overnight use of trailers or tents. Site built homes only. Here are some additional pics I have:

    Log Bed Frame For Sale (Queen Size)

    Bed is sold pending inspection. Thanks Maverick 351
  9. $250 for a Queen Size Log Bed Frame. Bought it new about 18 years ago. Used it as a primary bed for a couple years and then it went into the spare bedroom where it was used maybe a couple times a year. It's in great shape. Located in East Mesa. Would prefer the buyer to pick it up but delivery is possible for extra $ if local. PM if interested. Thank you, Bo

    Rutting

    Saw 7 bucks yesterday in a unit I have only seen a handful of deer in over the last few years. The cold had them up and moving/rutting. Got to within 40yds of this guy but was carrying my recurve for pigs.

    Mathews Monster Wake

    Is this "wake" the last viewing of Mathews Bows forever? It's been a long time since they have released anything good. Seems like they are on their way out.

    Havalon knife, which one?

    I too have the Piranta. I actually stopped using it for awhile because I would constantly break blades while gutting and skinning (that and poking my fingers and hands with the tip). It is a little unnerving when you don't know where the other half of the blade is inside an animal you are not done with yet. I was on a recent trip in WY and shot a deer and used a buddies Piranta but he had the #22XT carbon blade. It was much better and safer than the #60 blades with the sharp point. One blade and I was able to process an entire deer using gutless method. Even de-boned it with the same blade. I liked it so much I came home and bought a 100 pack of the blades for $35 and gave them to my friends that own the Piranta. I do like the look of the Outdoor Edge though. I will probably give it a try at some point.

    Payson Meat Processor

    I have use Ron Buehring a couple times 928-517-1113. Strictly processing, no smoked items. He runs out of his house out off airport road. He has always done a really good job.
  20. A great place to start looking for areas is here: http://wgfd.wyo.gov/plpwhmprogram/frmWalkinHuntingHome.aspx The first year I went I was very unsure of where to go also. I bought the paper BLM maps and studied them pretty hard. My buddy bought the SD card for his GPS also which proved to be a must have. You do need to be careful though. This year I had the updated SD card for my GPS that even showed the walk in areas. WYGF had a property drop out of the program in July after the initial map release in June. They updated the website but I didn't notice since it still showed on my GPS. We went to that property on opening morning only to meet the game warden at our truck on the way out. He was good about it but it was an unnecessary meet and greet. A written warning later we went and found new ground. Also be sure you get your habitat stamp. I found out that not having it will cost you $70 but you can buy one from the warden for $12.50 once you get your ticket. Left me with the impression it happens a lot. You have lots of time between now and next years draw to research. You'll be surprised how much you will learn between now and then. You are always welcome to pm me if you want.
  21. I have hunted WY the last 4-yrs in one of the lowest public access areas. We have gone 100% on all tags each trip. If you are not after a big trophy you can save some money and do a DIY hunt. There are a ton of antelope up there and they are not too hard to get to once spotted. The trick is doing a lot of homework on BLM Land in your unit and also keeping up to date with the Walk In Areas on the G&F website. However, if you are trying to draw a prime area and want to make the best of it then a guided hunt may be a better route. Either way. Good luck to you...

    ruger lcp 380

    Just bought the LCP myself. I am not a small guy and was pleasantly surprised at how good it fit in hand and how well it shot. I bought for a CCW pocket gun. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it for anyone.
  23. I shot this last year and had a blast. Really good group of guys too. Wish I was going to be here to shoot it again.

    Gravedigger question

    Glad it worked. I killed a couple of pigs with these last year and was pretty impressed with the results. I found them to fly extremely well. I have not noticed the sound issue with mine though. Not sure why you would be getting that?
