Headed up to the big lake yesterday w my two of my best friends. We had lots of laughs and got 18 of some real nice eating size walleyes. We went out if cranberry creek and jigged using hair jigs mostly in purple colors. Boat owner and myself got our limit in about 3 hours and other buddy was short by 4 fish so we decided to troll back west toward the ramp to pick up the rest of his fish. Worked out perfectly as we got his last fish straight out from the marina at cranberry. Great time water is getting warm so I think the jig bite is about over with. Took my dad some of the fillets and some yellow sponge morels and that made his day. Catching was a bonus but spending time w friends and sharing the bounty w the person who taught me how to do it made for a great day.

He said he gives them to people who work at Wendy’s not actually giving them to Wendy’s

Very nice catching but when you say you took it to Wendy’s that’s a person and not the fast food chain correct? Because if you took it to our Wendy’s no one there would know what to do with it lol

I knew this was too good to pass up as I figured it would be a great way to stir the pot btw you two. I always get a chuckle reading what you to are coming up with.

Saw this and instantly thought plumb must’ve rented this billboard space

Looks awesome mike well done and I’m sure he will be smiling. I did this one last year and put the light in it. Thinking maybe next year make some small trees out of pvc and use these as the topper.

Wow that looks so good almost but my phone. I’ve got some lake trout from this summers vacation. I’m gonna try smoking some and I’ll report back w results

Yep I try and help out the ones that can’t help themselves that goes for people as well as the animals.

Wow that’s a bruiser too bad there is no season. We have a major problem w our Turkey population they are quickly disappearing as coons fox bobcats opossum are all feasting on the eggs in the nest. Reason no one traps because if the lousy fur prices. Heard some scuttle of a possible bounty system that would be great

Yep we are in the 3 deer zone but only one of the 3 can be antlered over 3” so now I have two doe tags left.

Thanks everyone I’m feeling very blessed today. Glad I get to share the time w him I shot my first deer at age 10,I’m now 48 and to be able to still be making memories together is awesome. He will be 72 on Halloween and we are headed over to Pennsylvania to hunt for his birthday.

Dressed out at 195# so freezer is getting to where I like it…… full lol

[quote=saw1][quote=Bassattacker]Well if you remember or saw my post last week of me filling my tag I mentioned of trying to help my dad get his buck. I attached a pic of a big spilt brow buck. This time of year things can change daily as the we get closer to the rut. That being said this other buck showed up Tuesday and while dad was on stand he watched from a distance them shoving each other around pretty heavily. Forward to this morning we had a heavy rain so I went around 11:00 checked cameras and saw the new buck heading into bedding area. Called dad told him I’d bet he’s be back thru same way he went in this morning and he came right back around 5:30 and my dad made a great shot and deer expired quickly in about 75 yards. Real dandy 5x6 or 11 pt however it’s a stud[/quote

WOW, what a nice deer.
My congrats to your Dad.
That's just awesome you got him on that buck. Good job brother. 🤠👍[/quote]
Thanks saw yeah after all that he taught me over the years it feels real good to pay him back w a buck of this magnitude.

Awesome sounds like my type of guy. Gotta work to play and sure looks like he plays like I do. Congrats that’s a beauty.

Sounds like a great day and some good eating. Congrats
