Blastin' and Castin' in the Texas Outdoors

We havea lot of good times, the road was a drug when we started way back, our wheels rolled on steady, now its forgetting the race to find an open space and leaving that city far behind We’ll be up in the morning before the sun, since anything beats working on the job and everyone knows the early worm gets the fish. The world is your oyster, let the high times carry the low, walk where the sun is shining, lay your burdens down and think to yourself that it sure feels good feeling good again.

Got a Raccoon Problem

Chris and I have been feeding some coons in our pig trap for a while, since they kept tripping the trapdoor we decided to punish them.

Chris placed a 5 gallon bucket on it's side and laid foot trap on the ground in front of the opening and covered it with some grass. We threw a handful of corn into the bottom of the bucket and viola!

this setup caught two coons on two consecutive nights, paired with the coon and skunk we caught in a snare on the same nights, I predict a huge drop in non-pig activity in the trap.

Canadian Law affecting hunters and Landowners

Dec. 14th Ontario joined British Columbia and Manitoba in a ban of all hunting of animals in enclosed areas regardless of acreage.

I do not agree in any way with "canned hunts" but I also can't imagine something like this happening in America. I understand why the land owners are upset but all they have to do is keep their property more appealing to the animals than the neighbors and they will be able to keep the critters around to hunt.

Non-native species will still come to the feeders like cattle even after the fences are down.

Deep Sea Fishing in Florida - We Call 'em Cobia Here!

We did catch a single Ling, but he was a bit small and had to go back. We got to keep a whole lot of tasty grouper though and had a great time. I know this isn't Texas guys, but thought the photos were worth postin' anyhow. Hopefully, I'll have a few more of the giant loggerhead I had to reel in when I find the cable to my damn camera.
