Has any schools around you updated or newly turfed a field recently?

They should have cutoffs they'd probably give away.

Most of these are none padded.
Add on:

I trimmed mine back a couple years ago and now i only get a few blooms on them vs used to be loaded. Bushes have regenerated and are about 4-5’ diameter.

Any suggestions?

You can get cost shares for loblolly in MS. They max out at $10k. I just got one in 2025.


Who did you go through? What was the process?

I didn't see team size but would probably be hard to hunt Ohio with accommodations, and land to hunt for less than 5k a piece assuming a 4 man team.


2 man team. You get 200ac per team. Not as appealing. I was thinking your way. 4 guys and a chunk of land could be fun regardless of the competition
That is about what im seeing on prices. Actually a little better. 40 acres but they are cutting a mile down the road so would be an easy move.

Ive got about 80 acres of this. I get 4-5 buyers a year wanting to cut my place. Hunting is too good to watch it go. If i ever cut it, im just gonna sell the place because it will be worth nothing to me after that.

Why would anyone need to be that greedy?


Not about being greedy. More like the others said. What if I go across and only catch 7 fish and then hit a reef close to the launch. 13 isnt legal in MS and i get pulled up on how could i prove i caught it in LA. I could show my GPS track that i was there but doesnt prove I caught it there. What if i am greedy at keep 7 20"+ at Cat then run over to flatboat?

Just thinking while waiting on friday to get here again.

Too much effort to drop a cooler at the truck and go back. Once we hit the launch we are done.
That's what we have always thought. Been doing it for 40 years that way. If you stop in different waters better be legal in those waters. Never had an issue at the docks when coming in though. Knock on wood.
Anyone ever been checked on this? After watching a tv show with people fishing at night and catching a limit before and after midnight. They put them in 2 different boxes and taping shut the pre midnight box. This was a LA game warden telling them this.

What if you used two different ice chest on the boat? Would it fly if checked by The Man?

I’ll never not have a topper on a truck again


Same here. Im a young guy and was called a pawpaw by a few buddies until they went out west with me and all our stuff fit. Nothing got wet and froze into a big block of ice like in previous years. Ill never go without one again between hauling baseball gear to games/tournaments, hunting gear on road trips or family road trips its the best.

I got the roof rack and rod holders so i can take a pole everywhere we go. Currently on a IL, MN, and WI road trip. Day 1 and already walked a river in chicago before the family got up.


Get a topper with the top rack and leer locker. You wont regret it

Gonna be up there a few days this weekend. Anywhere to fish or guide recs? Looking for smallmouth but open to anything.

spend the money and get a retrax or better yet find a used one. Thats on my teenage son’s truck. Ive got a topper. Thats the way to go in my opinion.
If looking at f150 2021 and newer all have the updated transmission and cam phasers. Anything before that you need to check man date. You want the updated cdf drum transmission for the 10 speed. Some of the 18/19s are trash. Some are great. I got one each. 18 has been great. 19 had tran and cam phasers replaced before 80k miles


When it is right the 3.5 and 10sp is a pretty fun stock truck to drive
Did your son ever get set up and shooting? The world needs more bowhunters!!!
