On opening morning we went to the same spot we’ve gone the last several years, near Calipatria. Dove numbers are usually good enough, and it checks all of the other boxes: not posted, not crowded, it has shade because it backs to a date palm grove, the shade is to the east so we’re looking and...

Give me a holler if you’re coming this way Horto, I’ll share some intel and help you out if I can.

Drove over to Depoe Bay on the Oregon Coast for a half day fishing trip with Dockside Charters targeting shallow water rockfish and Dungeness crab. Limit style fishing is typical here, and today was no exception. Good quality too, all on plastics using my so cal calico bass gear. Crabbing was...

Saw quite a few geese flying today in NW Oregon. And leaves turning already on elm trees. In August?? Climate change I guess.

Hitting the IV for the weekend with the usual group of miscreants. Seems like each year we hunt less and goof off more on the opener. But some new, younger blood has come on board and these guys don’t stop! I expect we’ll have a great time as always.

“Except as otherwise provided in sections ….” Always such a maze of legalize and imprecise caveats. But I’m sure the legal staff of every mom and pop antique store and pawn shop has fully researched and vetted the history of the old antlers for sale in their stores.

Steve, sounds like you were maybe in the north valley around Wister and the DFW fields. I didn’t see that many mournings the other day in the mid valley area. Although a 3 acre tree cluster next to a cut corn field was absolutely loaded with white wings. There were a few ECDs mixed in, but it...

Old guy thinking young…. the cause of many problems for sure.

Sounds just like my experience. I used to be able to handle it better, but then I used to snow ski, water ski, and play tackle football too lol. One thing is for sure, driving in the air conditioned car for two hours and then getting out into 112 doesn’t work for me anymore. Looking forward...

In So Cal and had a job in Palm Springs so I brought guns. Finished up by noon and went south to the IV. Started shooting ECDs around 3 pm, but the 112 temp was just too much for me. Even sitting in a chair in the shade didn’t work out, so I wussed out and headed for an air conditioned fast...

Good luck on Monday Jon. Any upland game?

Sounds like you represented us well. Thank you!

They’re onto the umbrella rig! The umbrella eaters have been weeded out of the Skinner gene pool I guess lol.

Congrats Jon! Damn nice looking partner. Many memorable times to come.

Nice job! Used to fish there a couple of times each year. Trolling umbrella rigs works well there too, but not as much fun.

That last charge…no way I wouldn’t unload.

Biden did say recently it’s “time to put a bullseye on Trump”.

Hefty trout. Congrats!

Well that day didn’t suck! Way to go Steve. Is that an air gun?
