Rah, a really big deer around here is 130 pounds or over. I guess our average buck will go about 100 to 110. Last year I got one that went 145 pounds field dressed. Two years ago, I got one that dressed out at 165. Very few Texans have even seen one that size and yet they are common in the midwest.

Without a front end loader, I would be hosed. I bring all deer in with it and then tie a rope on the horns or the neck to lift it for skinning and butchering.

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.
