    Big Lake Fishing Report?

    Yep, he was a good one. Didn't measure, but thinking he was 18ish.... Nice to know there are some good sized (and VERY tasty) hold-overs to be had in that lake. Never caught a trout bigger than 14" in AZ.you might be fishing the wrong lakes I usually fish the rim lakes and only fished Big Lake once.

    6.5-06 head stamped brass

    Didn't know that, I've never had them ask to look at the ammo.

    Unattended Fire

    Well most "campers" just take stuff for S'mores and something to burn. Doubt any of them always have a shovel, bucket and axe.

    Electrician needed

    How many outlets do you think are on this breaker, assume it's a 20 amp breaker. Having most of the kitchen outlets, not counting the fridge is common. The garage should be on it's own breaker. Sounds like you are overloading the circuit. How many watts or amps is the Keurig and the griddle? Watts divides by volts equals amps.

    offshore gets going under a full moon

    Went on an overnight trip once about 20 years ago and on the way back the crew poured straight bleach all over the deck to scrub it down. Enough so that all of us sleeping below deck scrambled to get get above deck gasping for air. That was messed up, probably still happens. Skippers think the ocean is their cesspool.

    Archery Hunting within 1/4 mile of a building

    Huntin is huntin, whether it's waiting with a pellet gun gun in the backyard for a mouse to come out from under the shed or hiking in miles away all by your lonesome. My guess is we hunterfolk are maybe 2-3% of the population, at least here in AZ. The ole 1/4 mile was initiated around the travel distance of shotgun, although some States have a 100yd rule for hunting near a residence.
  18. 1. Responsible Agency: United States Department of the Interior Bureau of Land Management 2. Type of Action: Administrative (X) Legislative ( ) 3. Document Status: Draft (X) Final ( ) 4. Abstract: This Draft Resource Management Plan (RMP) and Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) describes and analyzes four alternatives for managing 55,990 surface acres on the San Pedro Riparian National Conservation Area (SPRNCA) in southeastern Arizona. The SPRNCA, located in Cochise County, is administered by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and includes approximately 47 miles of the San Pedro River. The BLM is the lead agency for the SPRNCA RMP/EIS with five cooperating agencies initially participating with the plan development: US Army Fort Huachuca; Arizona Game and Fish Department (AZGFD); Arizona Department of Transportation (AZDOT); Cochise County; and City of Sierra Vista. In January 2018, AZDOT withdrew from the project. The plan alternatives are as follows: Alternative A, the “no action” alternative, which continues the management decisions of the Safford District RMP and San Pedro River Riparian Management Plan; Alternative B, which emphasizes opportunities for increased public access and livestock grazing over the entirety of the SPRNCA, while focusing on active resource management to mitigate impacts from increased use; Alternative C, the preferred alternative, which balances resource protection and public use by authorizing livestock grazing in areas compatible with the conservation values and providing a diverse mix of recreational opportunities, while utilizing active resource management to minimize impacts and for ecosystem restoration; and Alternative D, which emphasizes resource protection and conservation by eliminating livestock grazing and limiting recreational opportunities, while focusing on natural processes and passive resource management for restoration. Planning issues addressed are soil and water resources, wildland fire, visual resources, cultural resources, lands with wilderness characteristics, livestock grazing, recreation management, lands and realty, wildlife and fish, transportation management, and social and economic conditions. The draft alternatives also address designating areas of critical environmental concern and wild and scenic river suitability findings. 5. Review Period: The review period on the SPRNCA Draft RMP/EIS is 90 calendar days. The review period began when the Environmental Protection Agency published a Notice of Availability in the Federal Register. 6.

    Calf Killer Down

    I would probably have a rug made. I have heard many times the meat is excellent. I have only seen one when I was scouting in 6A. I was up on a small mountain when I saw a female just sitting there about half a mile away be Clear Creek. All I had was a pistol and a call so off I went but the sun set before I could get all the way there.

    Youth first hunt 35a

    Temps in that area are quite a bit lower than Phoenix or even Tucson and since it is an early hunt the deer should be fairly active. I wouldn't overlook open sunny areas.

    Coyote problem

    Summer desert dogs have very little fur. Still, go wack them.

    Turquoise jewelry or mineral

    I have a friend in Tucson who has been selling her own jewerly for 20 years plus. Some of it is fossil coral and she can make you anything you want and is a vendor at the Gem Show every year. She is no kid and in her 70's but a real hoot.
