Last year in Unit 27 it was 19 below and everything froze. Our heater went out on the camp trailer, fortuntley it defrosted pretty quickly after the sun came up. Try instead of putting ice use frozen gallon jugs in the ice chest and no ice. The jugs will refreeze at night. 5 years ago we got a foot of snow while hunting.

PHOENIX -- Federal charges have been filed against two cousins accused of causing the largest forest fire in Arizona's history.
The charges were announced Wednesday by the U.S. attorney's office against Caleb Joshua Malboeuf and David Wayne Malboeuf. They include leaving a fire unattended and unextinguished, and failure to maintain control of a fire that was not a prescribed fire that damaged a National Forest System.
The Wallow fire burned more than 538,000 acres in eastern Arizona and New Mexico last spring.

I am looking into reloading rounds for my 7mm mag. I was thinking of going with a Sierra Game King 160gr. The powder and primers I have say it is good for 154gr to 162gr bullet. Kind of new at reloading rifle cartridges looking for some info. I am shooting the rounds from a Ruger m77 mark II.

I get checked almost every year.
Game Warden thought I had shot a doe a few yaers back because he was hunting in the same general area with his daughter and all he seen were does so he showed up at my house to talk shop but never really came out and asked me what I had shot. He recognized my Dad and truck. He wanted to come in the house and talk but I stopped him at the front door. Getting around the search warrant.

San Felipe, News
The full magnitude of the sinking of the sport fishing boat Erik, and the presumed loss of life of seven U.S. anglers, is now becoming evident to the San Felipe community. Everyone I meet on the street is devastated by the accident and also concerned as to what this will mean for the future of the port as a sport fishing mecca. Now that the search for survivors has been called off by both the Mexican and U.S. governments, the one thing left to do to solve the question of what happened to the missing fishermen is to locate the wreck.
There appears to be no sign of the Erik at the position last identified by the survivors, so the likelihood is that the strong currents to the south that followed the sinking in the early morning hours of Sunday 3rd. July have shifted it a significant distance and possibly caused it to fall into one of the undersea canyons. This is going to take some detailed surveys to determine where it is lying. Oceanographic exploration boats, such as those at Scripps Institution of Oceanography in San Diego, have gear such as side-scan sonar that gets towed in a pod behind the survey vessel to make a detailed contour map of the sea bottom. However, getting such a survey vessel to come to the Gulf on short notice is a major undertaking.
In the meantime, there are many unanswered questions about the licensing and insurance, if any, carried by the boat operators; on whether there was safety gear for every person aboard and whether the required training session and safety drill was held before sailing. Some of the survivors reports indicate that there was a deficiency in this area. The fact that survivors were in the water for some 16 hours before any alarm was raised also makes one wonder if any distress call was received from the Erik before it sank.
Down at the San Felipe harbor there is tension in the air. Inspections are apparently being made of every boat going out and I think that we can assume that all the rules, regulations and paperwork will be rigidly enforced from now on. If this boating disaster had occurred to a US vessel, it would result in multi-million dollar liability claims and wrongful death suits being filed, together with years of legal action against every official involved in inspection and sign-off on the permission to sail. How this will be handled in Mexico is now the question on everyone's mind. The outcome could well affect vessel design, modification and certification and may change the whole character of the "mothership plus panga" business model of sport fishing here.
There will also clearly be an immediate impact for the many anglers who have booked trips on the Erik for this summer. Will they get a refund of their money or be offered berths on other boats for the same dates? Will fishermen (or more likely their families) be so confident of an uneventful trip in the northern Gulf in the future?

I am trying to take a friend down to Apache that has never been. I was there July 4th weekend and caught some good fish. Just wondering if there has been any pattern changes from the last time I was there. Dropshots and jerkbaits. Going to try and get in on some yellows if the boat traffic is not to bad.
Added some pics from Apache Lake. We caught a good number of bass, bluegill and one good channel cat. Most fish came on dropshots and texas rig worms. We kept a few bass and most of them had crawfish in there bellies.
Last pic is my daughter Emily with the biggest fish she has caught since her young fishing career began.

San Felipe News
The search for the missing fishermen from the Eric shipwreck continues, however optimism for a successful conclusion is officially dimmed. A crew of specialist U.S. divers will arrive from Hawaii tomorrow to do a thorough survey of the sunken vessel which is believed to be lying in 70-100 meters of water - too deep for local rescue services to do extensive exploration.
I have seen the boat in the harbor in San Felipe. I know it was an old run down boat from talking with other Fisherman that had made trips on the Eric. Pray they still find some more survivors.

Sorry no pics but we caught a few bass on dropshots and jerkbaits between swiming breaks to keep the heat off our heads. Was going to try and catch some yellows but the boat traffic was terriable close to the flats so we opted to stay out of the way and not get run over.
