Best wishes w/ the fishes HB,but the best catch will be the quality time caught w/ that youngin'. Who got the puddy cat you know?Seen in the paper where the big coyote contest was a success didn't realize there was that many hunters even from down south come up to hunt 'em....but for them kind of prizes it brings 'em out.

HB, One fish is better than none. Its great she asked u to go with her☺
No fishin for us, but we had a good day. Came home over $100 ahead from the casino. Took the dogs out tonight....not sure about the first tree because it was on a camper porch! Couldn't see anything on the porch trusses, but after we left I thought we should have looked on the top of the roof. Since we weren't sure if we were on posted property, we just got the dogs and got out of there. They treed again and that time we saw one.
Put my one horse on doxcy yesterday. She hasn't been quite right since November. A friend called me last wk and said her horse was off and she had her checked for Lyme's. Sure enough she had it. Since the symptoms were similar to what my horse is doing, I called my vet again. I need to find a new vet. Her vet charged her less than $100 for blood work, mine wanted over $200. But he said let's try the doxcy for 2 wks and see if she shows any improvement.

Thanks HB, guess time will tell. At least she's eating the doxcy powder in her feed. She's a pretty picky eater so I thought it might be a hassle giving it to her.
Wish we had more coon here. We've never seen anyone hunting with dogs, but some guys still trap them, some guys calling predators will walk around the field after calling and shoot any coon they see in the trees and some of the farmers kill them all summer. Hoping to get some box traps out this summer at some of the farms and move the coons to places where we can hunt that aren't close to main roads.
