Oh man, what a great photo! What great memories. Thanks for sharing.Old Hunter wrote: ↑Tue Apr 07, 2020 10:50 pm Going through a book of old photos, found one of me and my Dad from the late 1970’s. We were trolling for King Mackerel off the jetties at Cape Lookout, I hooked into this false albacore and had a nice time reeling it in. This may be the only picture I have of us fishing together when I was a young man, wish it was better quality. OH

bighomer,
Is that buck already beginning to grow his new antlers?
We're still seeing antlers on bucks. They should be shedding them soon. Treefarmer

Farmer I noticed a couple of bumps on one of them's head, I know nothing about when they shed or start growing new ones but I would have thought they would start growing later them in the year.treefarmer wrote: ↑Sat Apr 11, 2020 2:29 am bighomer,

Re: Outdoorsman Thread
That deer looks like he is starting a new set. There are some amazing time lapse photos on the internet of farm raised deer showing antler growth.
Scott, you should have grabbed one of them little fellers and made him squeal.

Re: Outdoorsman Thread
Wow Scott! Those are cool! Me & a friend went looking for baby gators once in a Orange plantation in Oak Hill, Fl. Ended up getting chased by two or three dogs and a farmer with a shot gun yelling that we were stealing his Oranges.

Gdogg, how do y'all prepare and cook a Salmon? We don't have land locked Salmon in this part of the world. I see you caught him on a fly rod.

Re: Outdoorsman Thread
Here's a fun little project idea for putting small antlers to good use. All ya need is an antler, a small stainless steel rod about one to two foot in length, a drill, maybe a grinder or a file will do & some stronge universal glue.
1) If possible, use a grinder or file to make a somewhat pointy tip on one end of the SS rod.(second picture)
2) Measure the thickness of the rod and find a drill bit just slightly thicker than the SS rod.
3) Drill a hole in your antler. A vise comes in handy.
4) Apply glue to the antler hole & the rod. You can use a grinder or file to give the inserted part of the rod a rougher surface.
5) Insert the rod, wipe off any excess glue & wait to dry.(One or two more points holds more poles.)
6) Go Fishin!
(And..., these would also make nice gifts. Or..., you could sell them. )
Thanks for looking! And If ya make any..., we all like pictures.
