Lakes in the south here are good for your boat size and not crowded week days (usually) above the spawn dang at Roosevelt maybe? Not sure the depth of the water there? Seen some small flat bottom boats launch and go up river.

103 at work today and 92 at home. Don't sound like much difference but the lack of pavement and concrete sure makes getting home nice!

Diamondback.. It was protested in Phoenix because that's where the guys who killed people in Texas worshipped. They were from Phoenix and worshipped in a hateful place. Sounds like this thread will be closing soon but just wanted to get that out there. Same as when a guy kills school children the news focuses on the shop that sold him the gun. Although in this case I do believe that the Muslim shop there in Phoenix bread hatred and caused the guys to kill in Texas. The recent "cartoon event" was peacefully because the respectful law abiding Americans with guns usually only shoot to protect themselves and others, not kill for criminal reasons like others do. The cops interviewed in Phoenix took full credit for a peaceful riot, they gave NO! Credit to the peaceful Americans who kept it civil. Wrong in my opinion.

Murf, your letting out our secret language!! They'll be on us in no time thanks to you!!!

do red necks have a good name? never met a redneck without a PHD and a good income! Are you racist against rural Americans???

I like playing devils advocate (as you can see in other posts, poaching) lots of folks do nothing wrong or if they do wrong it's minimal or just the way the law is and it can't be changed since the law is broke. How do you change/repeal it? Good question???? So many nanny lawyers out there anymore and so many citizens charged with questionable crimes it's hard to change.change for one actually means change for all today. There is no more case by case basis. They try to cut and dry EVERYTHING!!! By what the current law says. More money that way.

I think your correct but not sure on the law in its entirety

This gives rednecks a bad name!

Domestic violence also gets your gun rights messed up. Crazy ex wife comes over, drunk girl friend, etc. chances are high you get a charge against you even if it's not you fault. Luckily my wife is cool and we never had that issues but I hang out with dudes who have been really messed up by Dating strippers and such.

Huh? Ok then lol thought it was you guys.

Towed by a tundra if I remember correctly

Had your guys name on it, headed off the houghton exit towards Tucson?

Not a hard job. About like building an AR. BTW, saw the pizza trailer the other day, where were you guys headed?

Mattys281, I understand what your sayin. Most that say they give their all still have a lot to give, and a lot that struggle, struggle because of their own demise. There is still a few good people that truly do what they can and it's not enough. Like stated previously, would you rather then get on the welfare dime or take a creature it two a year out of season? I know I know! Folks will say, "if they take one or two, what's to stop them from taking 20???" Or,"if they take 2 a year that means every one will and we'll have no game left!!" The man who takes game to feed his family isn't picky, isn't shooting trophy's, and isn't advertising. To compare him to a drug dealer is wrong. A drug dealer makes money by hurting others. You can say a man who feeds his family with game is hurting others chances of hunting but is he really compared to a drug dealer?

I'm guessing this is in a place Phoenix area folks go?

Hypothetical...... A guy is down on his luck, works a full time job, makes a middle class income, is used to two incomes but his wife gets sick. They have dogs and cats and kids. The man works as much as he can in his current job but just can't pay for it all. Gas, medical bills growing, land payment, utilities, etc. one day the dogs run out of food, the garden is picked clean and the family has no edible meat (because the rabbits are in their worm season) the man takes his last few buck to the store to buy enough carbs, veggies, and oil to keep his family afloat for the next month til he's paid again. On his way home he stops and takes a deer. Not a trophy but likely the first deer he sees most likely without antlers. Skins every bit of meat and cartilage off of it that he can with an old buck knife and feeds his wife, kids, and dogs protein. Is that wrong? I'm sure some will come up with better ideas but a struggling person does what he knows.

Lost an Australian Shepard in pine top once. He went after a rabbit and never came back. He was 13, deaf and almost blind. After am ad in the paper, pound, and humane society we found him thru the paper ad. Someone took him to the humane society after picking him up and thinking he was a younger dog. The look on his face in the pokie was priceless!! He knew he did wrong. Haha!! Check the local agencies if you haven't already.

And the folks that apply for hunts that have over 50% of the unit being private access don't get one?? Talk about random selection.

The next month or so of heat and lack of moisture can kill feed and dry up water sources in some areas. Supposed to be a wet year though as stated before.

AZ usually gets a weather system middle to end of May. No surprise, this one came a week or so earlier than the past few years but still came none the less.

I hunt public land behind private locked land regular, didn't get the letter? So they want to raise prices to allow general public access to public land that's locked up by private land? I would not want that. I enjoy my large plots of land shared by few. Most folks are afraid to ask or do some work to access it. I agree it shouldn't be closed but while it is there is still usually access to it with a little work.

Vortex is great! If can carry the weight then night force is awesome! If you trust a poor redneck then I'd buy sightron, cheap and very good glass!! Or name brand like most want but very good

Dead is dead!! Congrats to her!

How dare you sir!!! Your dogs are awesome but I have my own problem puppies!!!
