    Default Shelbyville 9/8 and 9/9

    Saturday went for a bit with dad and didnt take all that long to get our 2 man limit. We had 7 that went 12 inches or bigger with one a little over 13 inches.

    Today I went (dad wussed out...said it was to cold and nasty) Got my limit real quick. Had two today at 13 inches and several other nice 11+ inch fish. Had my deer gear in the back of the truck and headed over to the woods since I hunt on the lake...about 3:15 I watched two does get chased all over the place by a buck. He was gruntin and everything, awesome sight to see. I just knew when they came back in the woods I would get a shot at em...about 3:40 I watched a coyote come by at 15 yards. Stood up on him, got to full draw, whistled at him to stop and instead of stoppin he just sprinted off At about 4:30 deer were still on the edge of the woodline 50 yards from me and here comes Mr. Farmer with his tractor and plows. There goes the deer No school Tuesday, I think ill give Mr. Buck another shot!

    Here is saturdays mess and my dad with a couple nice ones





    Here is today and my two 13's

    Hey Tyler, thats a nice catch. Thats a good idea. I should put my huntin stuff in my truck and fish in the morning and hunt in the afternoon. I saw a guy at the boat ramp with his boat and a nice 9 pointer in it. Not fishn he was just huntin. But that is a good idea. I could find all kinds of places to hunt while in my boat.

    Frank-sounds like your brother in law was a sneaky one! These deer sure werent used to the tractor, they saw/heard it and they were GONE!

    Those are the same 30 fish you post every week. We all know that you just keep them in the freezer whole and reposition them each time you make a new post! The gig is up, Tyler.....
