Free Ranger pit for North Roberts for Wednesday 1/17/07

Should be a DVD title. For those that hunted this weekend you will understand my next statement. All of my worldy possesions are either mildewed, wet , jammed ,broken or in pawn.

My sinuses have a good infection too.

I feel really sorry for Bill Thompson's younger brother who flew in from Dallas drove from little Rock, then drove another 45 minutes this morning and found a swamped pit at North Roberts. That's a tough break.

TOUGH HUNTING AND GOOD Q, GOOD TIMES HAD BY ALL>

Some quick thoughts about our growing flock of leakers that clutter up the pits...

Every year the problem seems to get bigger. What we currently do is pick up all the decoys at the end of the year...leakers and floaters alike and store them until next year. The next year it seems all the leakers are getting mixed in with the regular flock. Opening week the spreads look great, then a few days later about 10% of each flock has turned into submarine dekes.

We need to get these dekes culled out of the spreads now. Having done this a few weeks ago at North Bridge, I can tell you its a fairly time-consuming task for one person and required a four-wheeler. more »

I'm taking dibs on East Claypools. So don't anybody get any wise idea like you can sneak out there and just take a spot.

Right now the only guns in the pit are Michael, Jr's and mine, so the way I see it, is we are already getting pretty full. Some of you are going to have to suck it up and realize that you had your chances.

One more thing, this all depends on weather or not I can get my hands on a four wheeler ( or as some of our migrating members would call it a quad). So, if I can't get one then all bets are off, and I'll just have to stay with my rotation at the Swan Pond pit.

Holla here comes the rain

Chef Mike Johns is gettin the pig out again this weekend for a third opening weekend party Saturday night. He'll need a little help from the chefs for the sides, so pitch in when you can. Bring @$10/head for supplies and come hungry around 6 PM. If you have more than a couple of guests, shoot me an email so that we'll have plenty of supplies.
