Nice looking shed! I love how it wraps like that.

Wow - that was fast. I figured someone on here would have some info. Thanks.

I've noticed for the past few years that the smallmouth in the Black are filled with some type of parasite. They look like little yellow seeds embedded in the meat, but when you cut them out, they are little yellowish worms. Some of the bass have little black dots all over the fillets, which I assume are the "worms" in their early stages. I've always cut the fillets into small chunks and removed all of the little worm-like parasites then cooked them up VERY hot. Does anyone know the story behind these little suckers, and whether there is any danger when eating the meat? I have heard that they come from the herons, and their droppings getting eaten by smaller bass, but nobody seems to know whether they are actually dangerous or can be transmitted to humans. Any info is much appreciated.

I doubt that we'll get an "easy out" on this. The more he keeps piling on trillions of dollars in American debt to China and other countries on our children and grandchildren, the sooner we'll see him fade away as he should.

Sounds like a sweet bow. Congrats! I'm gonna shoot the new Bowtech Air Raid before I pick my next stick flinger.

Good luck with whatever you choose. Personally, I dig the wisker biscuit. Great for stalking, the arrow NEVER falls off, and oh yeah, it's fun to say

Nicely done! A big congrats - now go clean up this border mess!!!

Great job, Brian. What an awesome story!

Ineresting stuff - so with a .300 wsm, can I still handload Bergers? I was about about to buy some dies this weekend.

I noticed a couple odd success rates as well (not as odd as zero, of course). For example, the 16A Jr. hunt had a 65% success rate, compared to 18% for the 16A general hunt just a week later. I'd love to see the formula that somehow takes into account the optional harvest reporting.

Thanks for the awesome photo-journey! What a great trip!

Too bad you didn't have a 25-06 on your lap - both down. Good job stikin one with a longbow though!

I got a super-cheapo from old-navy on clearance that fits in its own pocket - picked up about 4 for around $5 each. Can't beat 'em for the price. Just a nylon shell, but hey out here that's all we need.

Dude!!! That so freakin' ROCKS!!!! I know a lot of "well seasoned" verterans, who would love to pull off an archery turkey and you've got 2 now. Great job!!! And thanks for sharing the pictures and story with us.

Here's a picture of the fans and beards. The one on the left needs some work - he was a scrapper. Gonna make some mounts with natural manzanita, similar to this one.

Not necessarily disagreeing with you, Sniper but can you elaborate on the "better BC bulltes" part of your argument? For example a .270 WSM (short action) can be loaded with the exact same bullets as a .270 Win (long action) The same is true for .300 WSM vs a .300 Rem Mag, or other long-action .30 caliber rifles. Before the advent of the newer "short magnums" I would have agreed. Then most short actions were tailored to smaller caliber bullets that required less powder, and hence a shorter case.

Good job! Those suckers aren't easy to sneak up on.

Awesome, Cory. Way to get 'em out there!

Very cool!

Guess I don't speak ghost - anyone wanna translate?

Nice pix - thanks for sharing.

Great job, and great story! Thanks for sharing it. Man that is one big turkey!!!
