Brian, you certainly have had a great year. I don't know how it could get any better. Congratulations on your accomplishment which is quite awesome to say the least. Thanks for sharing Brian. What's next on the list? Thanks for sharing. TJ

Thanks for posting. Great job of getting out their and helping other hunters. I look forward to meeting you someday. I hear nothing but good things about your calls. TJ

Congratulations on all your turkeys. Great write up! I have always liked sitting water holes for turkeys. You guys definitely had the right setup to stay dry and comfortable which is a must in my book to set all day on water. If there are tracks sooner or later they will come. I got excited reading your post Adam and Lonni. Thanks for sharing. TJ

Thanks for sharing Tommy. Nice set for sure. TJ

I hope you get to do the things you like on your birthday. Happy Birthday! TJ

Not sure how I missed this one. Happy belated Birthday my friend. TJ

Best of luck Brian. Take lots of pictures. Them two birds you have there are very nice ones. TJ

Be sure to purchase a good pad for your cot. I have the Sportsman's brand and love it. It makes all the diffference. TJ

Congratulations on your bird. Sounds like you hit the right spot with alot of action. Thanks for sharing. TJ

Congratulations on a nice tom. TJ

Happy anniversary! You bet ya got a good one. TJ

Good luck Rob. You have one of the best looking dogs I have ever seen. He was great with all the kids at the cwt outing a few years back. I know what you mean about wanting to continue with another lab just in case. TJ

I'm pretty sure I will be attending this year. Looks pretty amazing! Does anyone camp out there? TJ

That's a very cool picture. TJ

This has become my favorite time of year. The bluegills have come up from parts unknown. I fished with my dad on Friday and we caught somewhere in the neighborhood of 150 and brought home 41 that could be filet. Then Peg and I hit Saguaro before daylight this morning and caught over 200 and managed to bring home 56 that was worth cleaning. The fun I had on both these days can't be made up. It's almost like finding your elk after putting an arrow in it. Talk about excitement. Yes, bluegill fishing has always been in my blood ever since my parents introduced me to it when I was just getting out of diapers. This is the time of year to get the kids out there and introduce them to fishing. The action is non stop and the joy you will experience watching your kids can't be matched by anything. My dad will turn 85 this year and I laughed so hard at him catching bluegills on Friday that I thought I would bust a gut. I think about the times he took me fishing and now it's me taking him. I know I'm a blessed man and I hope each and everyone of you get to experience the same with a love one. Then I got to have another awesome time today with my wife even though she kept catching dinks LoL Actually she out fished me again for the one hundreds time. I haven't ever figured that one out. When the bass fishermen ask how we are doing I say awesome and then they laugh when I say I'm fishing for bluegills. Here are a few pictures. My best friend and fishing partner. He will turn 85yrs this year. Some of our bigger bluegills. They take a lot of work. Peg taking out the ribs Choco helping rinse Emma is 4 never fished but knows how to help me clean fish. Peg does daycare and all the children that come thru our house has helped skinned or helped clean fish. Part of the program weather the parents like it or not. Not a bad bunch for 41 bluegills. Peg catching all the dinks. Actually she out fishes me every time. Still can't figure that one out. Now that fun. I'm in this situation quite often. Lexie thinks all these fish are her babies. She makes sure they are get put in the live well. 56 fish here and will make awesome fish tacos. Other than Lexie making sure all the fish go put in the live well she got her exercise in at the end of the day. TJ

Thanks for sharing the pics. TJ

Congratulations to your son and his friend. Sounds like you were in an awesome spot. Thanks for sharing. TJ

You bet it will work. That's a great idea and looks awesome. Thanks for sharing and giving me an idea. TJ

Thanks for sharing all the pictures Jay. Each and everyone were great. Good job on the video as well. Watching how excited Darr was running over to his bird was priceless. TJ

Good luck Brian. Can't wait to hear the story. TJ

Meal worms from Wal-Mart. Crawlers work but the meal worms are less messy and work twice as good. $2.plus change. TJ

Welcome to the site. I'm sure there will be someone jumping on your offer. Good luck! TJ

Congratulations Darr. Peg and I just watched it together. Awesome to say the least having Parker there and your good friend Jay to call it in while you concentrated on getting the shot off. Peg gets more excited with each passing day. Thanks for sharing. TJ

Welcome to the site Mountain Mama. It was a pleasure meeting you and Neal. I'm glad you both had a great time and hopefully next year you won't have to move camp as often. lol Peg said to say hello and give our best to Neal. TJ

Wow, you told a great story Ashlyn. Congratulations on a beautiful turkey. I'm sure dad was all proud of you. I can't wait to hear about your next hunt. Thank you for sharing your hunt with us. TJ
