Anything is possible Brian, I don't put a lot faith in the decisions of the MNR's policies in regards to stocking programs.

Well if they're munching Gobies that would likely explain it.

That's a darky as far as Simcoe Lakers go, intersting.

I've been on a bit of a stall with this one while I dealt with other issues including a broken down band saw, essential for cutting antler. I finally got the band saw up and working this morning in order to finish this Moose Antler handle. Anyway it's now guide ready and will hopefully be hauling in the Big Ass Bass soon. Cheers

LOL

Thanks Barry

Progress to date on this build has been rather slow given my old computer died Tuesday morning. Hence I've been busy getting this new computer up to speed, a task that will still require days....! I did find a few hours this morning to get the Moose Antler rear grip turned and finished. The pictures below show it dry fit to the blank and I will await customer approval before gluing it together.

Awesome!

I was recently tasked with building a split rear grip casting rod utilizing some young Moose Antler for a friend. I got started on it a few hours ago and two hours later this is where I'm at. Thanks for looking. I'd also like to extend Happy Father's Day wishes to all the Dads here, I hope your Sunday includes a little fishing time.

Clarence and Doug @ BCM have always treated me well. Glad they were able to get you fixed up.

Two have taken flight and the last two are working their wings....... http://falcons.hamiltonnature.org/mobile/index.html?bothmobile http://falcons.hamiltonnature.org/mobile/?camera2

No thanks to me KF, all I did was notify TJ and he immediately set out to fixing it for us.

Not sure as yet what was the issue but hopefully all has been resolved.

Oh looky, looky at what I found this morning while doing a little shopping. I'll get it right next time as I do have more Ground Venison in the freezer.

Admittedly I had to look that up Smitty and now that I know what it is, I'm definitely going to start keeping some of that in the pantry. Thanks.

It's all archived in the gallery, just select your date, time and camera..... http://falcons.hamiltonnature.org/mobile/?

Those that know, know.

Turning food that's on it's last legs into 3 to 4 meals..... I had half a head of Cabbage, a Red Bell Pepper, a few Celery stalks and two Tomatoes that were at the use it or lose stage so being cheap, I used them. I started the pan with a little Bacon Fat then browned up a pound of Ground Venison and seasoned it with a little Liquid Smoke, Pepper and Worcestershire. When browned through I set it aside in a clean bowl and started with the Cabbage. Once the Cabbage was semi cooked I added in the Bell Pepper, Celery and three large minced Garlic Cloves. When they were semi done I tossed back in the Venison and the diced Tomatoes simmered for several minutes and then folded in some Al Dente Rotini. Plated (rather sloppily) then grated a small piece of Old Cheddar that also was also at the use it or lose stage. It was really good, I'm looking forward to another serving this evening (without the cheese).

Well I hope you found some Doug, I went back for more on the weekend but sadly.....none were to be had. I should have bought every package they had, when they had them. Next time for sure! Anyhow, I ate the last package last evening, done the same as last time but with the addition of half a Bell Pepper I needed to use up and a few big cloves of freshly minced Garlic. Oh so goooooood!

Enjoy Pal, give me a shout when you have a few minutes post trip.

Thanks Rick. Mind you all the food pics you posted above have left me feeling rather hungry this morning....

Trimmed, seasoned, grilled and served. Nothing special, grilled med rare, plated with garlic mash and steamed broccoli. It was good, that I can assure you.

Oh I'm going to trim them well Doug, not a fan of candle wax and bile. But I'll still grill the trimmings for my Pup. Fresh pan fried Crappie, trade you in heart beat.

Hoping the forecasted rain does not materialize this afternoon so I can BBQ these lovely Venison Rib Steaks.

I've not actually seen Peregrines take the Pigeons here but I have seen Coopers and Sharpies take Pigeons here often.
