It is John davidson.He said he has been out with you a few times.Said he went along when your friend from down south was up with his bear hounds.He told me you gave him Kirks #.I dont know of anyone that is looking for woek during bait season right now.I will put the word out though.
Good for you HntrJohn. Finding someone with experience,that is willing to take you, is the best way to learn about any type of hound hunting.In my book anyway.What type of running are you going to do?
Where I live it is hard to find people that want to get involved with hound hunting.It is a...
My new dog from Washington is supposed to be flying into Portland today.When you get a day or so off let me know.Maybe i can take a ride up there and we can do some rigging.
Hey Bearbait,I heard you know my old friend of mine,John D that lives up your way now.He and I have spent a ton of time together in the woods,alot of it with treed dogs.He is a heck of a dog man.He really knows what a dog is doing.He has raised and trained some really good hounds.He doesnt put...
Where the heck have you been??? Dont try and tell me working either as I have known you for 20 years !!!LOL
Have you played around any with the dogs?If you want to try rigging them any feel free to take Whiskey.She is about 100% straight from the rig.The only thing is she may pass up a bad...
This doesnt have anything to do with hound hunting but I thought my buddys here would like to hear about it. I got a very nice letter in the mail last week.It came in a big manila envelope with hard carboard backing so the letter would be in frameable condition.It was a personal note on offical...
A few years ago in Maine a bear hunter saw a big black dog like animal come into his bait.He told his guide about it.The guide informed him that since we dont have wolves in maine it was a black phase of coyoyte,which we do have here and was legal to shoot.Next night animal came again and the...
I like sardines.They have a lot of smell.You can take a couple out and put them outside the trap.Sprinkle some of the juice around the trap too.Put the rest,including the can in the back of the trap.It has worked well for me in the past.
Black and Tans,along with any of the tree hound breeds,should work fine.Just be sure the pup comes from a long line of dogs bred to do what you want yours to do. I wouldnt get a pup out of coon competition bred bloodlines for cat hunting.You could end up with a good cat hound from them but the...
whiskey is probably the only dog I have that if I sold there would be problems at home.I will let you in on something though.I bet Tobey will hunt her almost as much as I do this year if he wants to.That dog is something really special to me.The most laid back thing I have ever seen.A lot of...
Sounds about right Tobey.I still tell the story of the Plott I had that was fighty.I told Bob he had to be hunted alone and sold it to him for 300 on a Tuesday.Bob sold him that Thurs for 1000 !!!I dont know how those guys can sleep at night.
Tobey, dan called me tonight.Said he just bought those 4 blue dogs from Bob.I think they are all blues anyways.He said these were the ones that came from Wisc. Are those the ones you hunted with?
Dont forget guys.I did say on paper.Of course ,on paper, the Red Sox should have won the world series several times in the past but they never have !!!!Time will tell.
Tobey, I just came back from a surprise 40th bday party for Alan C. There was a bunch of different guys there asking about...
Gato man, I have mentioned in the past that my buddy lives on an indian reservation,I figured you had seen it.He can run year round there.Frpm what he says there is aton of game there too.
Tobey, No problem.I am not worried about it.
Tobey, You wouldnt believe what that county farm area looks like now.I go to the courthouse there on business a few times a year.Everytime I ride up that road there is a new house or 2 being built.I mean $3 to $400,000 homes too.The county land is still there but it is totally built up around...
No , I dont believe he hunts for the timber co.'s Gatoman.I believe he bear hunts for pleasure only. He does own some logging operations though.he told me that before.
Tobey, i got your letter.Thanks alot. my new dog is being shipped next week.On paper,and peoples words, I am in the great position of haveing more dog power for bears than i need. i hope that turns out to be true.Time will tell.This new dog,Boone, is just turning 4 this year.He is a reg...
By the way KW.I would say the strangest things I have happen to me out hunting were mostly coon hunting too.I could write a book I think.Imagine if that lady would have been home when your dogs were there!!!! What a mess huh???
How about bayed??
We were running a coyote on snow in Maine a couple years ago.Saw him cross twice with the dogs right on his tail.Then we couldnt find the dogs.I got out the tracker and beeped them towards where my buddys were.They rode up and down the road and couldnt find them.then one guy...
