On my land, I consider myself the top of the food chain and make all appropriate decisions.

I only hunt during appropriate seasons. However, if the deer population got out of hand, I would do what was necessary.

If I had chickens and a hawk was getting them, I wouldn't mess with a depradation permit.

Unless rattlesnakes are around the house or pond, I don't mess with them. Lot of my neighbors have trouble with my snake tolerance but, It's my land and I make the decisions.

Kelly, Muleshoe didn't even have 10,000 people passing through in a good month.


It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.

Without a sense of urgency, Nothing ever gets done.

Boy, if I say "sic em", you'd better look for something to bite. Sam Shelley Rancher and Farmer Muleshoe Texas 1892-1985 RIP
