A Pile Of Pheasants On Albion Regulated Grounds




Decided to treat myself for Christmas. Went on a pheasant hunt on a regulated hunting grounds in Albion PA. Got 10 of 10 pheasants released. 10 shells. A great day. Had a good dog, this dog is doing much better since I last hunted with him, and hunted good cover. Was happy with the terrain. Many piles and thickets to hold birds. Snow background and and cool morning made for some fun winter action. Birds held tight and you really had to find them. Will be back to do it again before season ends.

Ducks Finally Arrive To Lake Erie


Went out on an early morning cold duck hunt. Snow flying, frigid temps with wind blowing in our face. Got two ducks, a lesser scaup and a goldeneye. First time out this year I saw ducks in the air. Did not see a large amount, but compared to the last two months they are finally here. Hope this is a start to good wave of birds. Season only has two weeks left.

No Buck To Be Found This Deer Season

Went hunting on the last day of the season. Lots of hunters out. Went to state land just south of Lake Pleasant. Saw a few doe bouncing around and one small yearling walked very close. Nothing with horns. All in all, a good year seeing deer. The most deer I have seen in the woods for some time now.

Deer Plentiful On PA Farm In Waterford

went out for the first Saturday of deer season. Right at first light had a nice buck break the field. Hard to see points that early, so I refrained from shooting. I believe it to be a real nice 8 point, but did not want to take the chance. Saw several doe throughout the day, including a large group of seven deer cross the field. Hunters today at this spot took 3 buck (two eight pointers and one seven)and four doe. Lots of deer to be found. Will give it one more try for a legal buck for me.
