    Do pigs count.And a few flies. I can't bow hunt in Quebec until I take the bow course and shoot at targets. I can't even rifle hunt yet due to my card not showing up yet to allow me to buy a license to hunt with a gun.That includes a shot gun for birds even.
    maybe 50 taps for 2011
    Finally ready to boil when I get enough sap
    I just might be crazy.( make that I know I am)
    Trees all tapped except the ones with 5 feet of snow.

    Archery season begins Saturday here in Pennsylvania. The season lasts about six weeks so I don't go out until about the third week or so. Too many leaves out until then. I usually take the last week off-bucks are really on the prowl then. Best of luck to those that do get out!!!

    Hunted tuesday opener and it was 84 degrees out. Woke up this moring and it was 70 already. Put the waders on and grabbed the flyrod and caught 30 salmon instead, my shoulders hurt, my forearms are buning and my hand is stiff, oh well it was fun sure hope it cools down soon.
