I go fishing and hunting just about one a week, usually on Friday on the way home from work. So far I've never come home without fish or meat. I came close last Friday when the bagger/cashier forgot to put the chicken breasts in my basket. Luckily I hunted down a steak too so the perfect record still stands.

I love fishing for smallmouth bass. My secret spot is a river that everybody thinks is a played out trout stream. The bass ate all the trout.

Yes, I am a tournament bass fisherman, when it is too hot, and buggy,
on the range. :lol:

Yesterday, I took the afternoon off, and showed a fellow tournament
angler some possibilities on a lake an hour north of home, for a
tournament, he fishes this weekend. I fished my last one, for the
year, last weekend. I have one "Fall Fishing" trip left with a bunch
of crazies, I call friends, and then the rods get hung up for the year.
But yes, I am smitten with bass fishing, too.

We have had so much flooding here in Missouri from Hurricane Ike...the fields, as the water recedes, have provided some GREAT fishing...if you like to grab.

300 AAC Blackout Chambering Cancelled:

Some time ago, Savage announced it would be chambering the Model 10 Precision Carbine in 300 AAC Blackout. Since that time, we have tested many variants of this cartridge in various barrel lengths and rates of twist. This exhaustive testing left us quite unsatisfied with the accuracy we were able to get from the subsonic loads in this chambering. Accuracy with the lighter, faster loads in this caliber was actually quite good. But we believe the real value in this cartridge lies in the use of subsonic loads for suppressed rifles. Therefore we have decided to scrap the project.
It is our understanding that pushing these heavy, slow bullets presents challenges not found in typical loadings and that our experience is not unique. Subsequently, many in the industry have simply adopted a lower standard for accuracy for these subsonic loads. While this does seem reasonable and we don't criticize any in our industry that have taken this approach, it just won't work for Savage.
Our brand was built on accuracy and we are too protective of our reputation for building the most accurate factory rifles available. We would rather walk away from this opportunity than sell a product that requires an explanation.

Nope, nada, uhh...uhh no way you gonna get me to noodle! It would be my luck I'd get the state record like the cat in the picture and he would take me home for dinner instead of the other way around! But to answer your question, I very much like to fish and hunt about the same. I mostly fish a local area river and in the Gulf and I have a hunting lease I've been a member of for the last 3 years. :mrgreen:

I'll second that as well!! Walleyes are my first choice. Followed closely by panfish. Especially crappie!! My lil' lady and I hit the water as much as possible over the warmer months. We had an exceptional season this year with 4 crappie coming in at better than 2 pounds each!! This one went 3.6 and was 18.25" long!!

Here's my better half with her personal best of 2.2 pounds!! This was one of three of that size she caught that day thanks to my superb guiding skills!!! :wink:

With open water just a memory, we're gearing up for "hard water" fishing and a few months of staring down a 10" hole in the ice...
