I guess I shoulda asked if he was hard of hearing...🤷

The question is...was this a clean miss?

***It was a log***. From low pressure misty rain to bright sun and cutting north wind, then lake effect rain AND wind...just generally sh*tty conditions overall, fishing kinda sucked. But muskie fishing usually does to be HONEST 🤷. Save one that got pricked in the beak by a big foam bullfrog, almost no muskies were harmed on this outing - though one may have been bewildered by the jet pump lower unit she inspected in 2ft of water. Still a great day on the water with Tom. We have some great chats...often deeply profane and childlike, but intrinsic to making a-hole 'skis a tolerable target species. We only broke one rod...gorgeous tye courtesy of

This is Danimal's first turkey. I had two jobs: call and film. Self graded A+ calling (you didn't get to see that part...lots of real competition) - B+ Yes I dropped the phone lol.

Dan gets an A+ for sitting on a stool in the wide open and smoking his stud gobbler with a short-stocked 20 gauge and a pheasant load! Yes there is cussing and heavy breathing 😁

Opening morning in Indiana I had a lot of fly down action but the boys all locked into a bunch of hens hundreds of yards away. I snuck back to the 'Burban and made it about a mile before I saw a couple strutters on another property I can hunt. Parked and slid 100 yards in, and hit them with some aggressive hen chit chat via a fresh batwing diaphragm - they were all in! Maybe 15 minutes from door to dead 😁

Rainy day Labs. Young Rhody sure likes to follow - or lay I guess, in his father Jack's footsteps. 🐾

Truly sickening and completely unsustainable...

Scouting turkeys just about every morning prior to the opener is one of my favorite things. A happy place. This morn was delightful 🙏 😁

Squeezing trips in whenever I can with all manner of weather related calamity a near daily occurrence - leading to a record number of cancelations. That's 30 years of metrics 🤔. Some I'll get back, but many I won't. Lots of guides sucking hind-tit right now. I know, I know, cry us a river, right!

We're in transition now with a handful of spawned-out steelhead dropping back through the system and browns hotter than a firecracker one day and non-existent the next. They're well-fed on juicy steelhead eggs, fish, insects, crayfish, and amphibians...who can blame them when they don't eat.
