Her bday is mid December. Just planning ahead. I have her the list of what was mentioned.

Eh, she wanted me to ask..

Flemings of course was the first one she brought up. Used to be a place called Janos that was kinda swanky. That guy opened carriage house which we tried years ago.

Thanks for the replies, been to pinnacle, saw some dudes bring in a couple Asian business men it was pretty funny

Nada! OTC elk maybe...

Nice!

Great job and buck! You guys got more tags?

Thinking 18-24" live bait leader with a triple swivel up top and maybe a 4" leader for cut bait off the swivel. I'm thinking this will keep the live bait alive longer. Maybe a straight 24" since there's lots of weeds now

We will be, fishing flatheads is a boring game and always more fishing then catching . looking to just add a bit of fun with some channel cat potential.

You're trying to get me beat up tomorrow huh?

Not sure if that would apply to what I'm trying. I'm looking to rig a live bait that can swim freely but still have a dead bait close to the slide sinker. My thought is live bluegill on a long leader and cut bait like chicken liver or bluegill cut in half on maybe only maybe a 2 inch leader like maybe on a triple swivel. Trying to hedge my bets between the chance at a big fatty but don't want to miss an opportunity at a good eating channel cat.

Thanks, was not able to open earlier link. Camofire was pretty cool, got some shirts and hats here and there

Was gonna say the same thing

My dad didn't even take us camping, he didn't like waking feeling "Dewey". I always wanted to hunt since I was little. When I moved to AZ I got a bow and sucked at hunting but the first season I will never forget. Then my kids hunts, first was elk youth with my daughter and we hunted hard. Got it done second to last day and we were both jumping and crying. I will take that beautiful memory with me to the grave. Hands down my favorite hunts are elk youth tags!

Who is Aziak?

Thought I'd bump your post. I was killing bugs at a ranch north of Douglas and the tail flap caught my eye. Looks like it's still working great for them, even saw the bottom was plumbed fairly recently. Can't see to well in the pic because the sun was blinding me but same company.

Best comment ever

Is this partially due to Nuscum? Saw the other day they are banning blocks in CA

3 elk, that is a lot of work! Good job you guys!

Wow that's hardcore! Super cool bull

As crazy monkey stated it's all about photoperiod same goes for deer. But I think you are on to something regarding changing weather patterns. Even the monsoon season seems to be changing imo. We were promised a wet year this time around and it was dismal during the typical time then came hard late on. I'm no biologist but if the pattern continues I could still see it based on photoperiod but I could imagine that sweet spot will be changing over the next 10 years. Typically deer rutting here had to do with birth time coming during monsoons. I could see the deer rut starting a tad later to coincide with later monsoons which I would imagine will start to be ingrained in the deer populations biological clock. Not a biologist, just thinking this will probably become a thing over time here in AZ. I was scouting an OTC elk unit a few years back and heard bugles in November. Just really makes you wonder.

Got the info needed, thanks all. Looks like it'll be good

Gonna head out probably next weekend, anybody been there last week or so? There online page said way low last week. Thanks

Several years in 23 on the youth hunt they still have been on fire. But that's 23 couldn't say crap about any other unit.
