Thanks all. This is 72 of them. And Brian is almost right right. I spent the last couple of days hunting but not in a blind. We are seeing no deer. Four of us hunted 2.5 days without anybody seeing one. The other guys sat still and watched. I personally decided to spent the time prowling up and down my hills to see if I could figure out where I might even see one.

Nada!

We have had a huge acorn drop and the deer don't have to move to eat. Since the rut is on, I guess they all decided to just stay home. I heard only 1 shot during that time.

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.

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