Elk in Sheep Country: CO 1st Rifle
Taking a cue from @Bluffgruff - this will be mainly just pictures. Since I am not even close to Andy's league as a photographer, I'll add a line or two of text with each one. Probably more, really, since I suck at editing. Tldr; Two friends had tags in a unit in Southern CO. A group of 8 of us... -
Backyard Rabbit Trapping
I have become an unintentional bunny trapper. this is the scene my son discovered this morning going out to take some cuts before school: I assume the dog or a fox chased it in there in the middle of the night at some point but it wasn’t chewed up so maybe it just wasn’t very agile. it...- cedahm

SOLD: Zodi Propane Shower
Selling a Zodi propane (single bottle) shower with case. Have used it 3-4 times in the last couple years. It works fine, but I just don't use it as often as I thought and I have had to move it to various different garage cabinets enough times that I should just sell it :) I will add pictures... -
CO: Reissue & Leftover Process potential change

Effectively, going back to how it was when it first...- cedahm

New Mexico 16C 2020 2nd Rifle
Quick report as I catch up on a thousand or so work emails and issues. Returned from the Gila late Tuesday. My best bud drew 16C this year (I had the early rifle tag in 2016 and he and our other buddy were both there with me. Our turn to return the favor). We knew it would be dry, but it was... -

Ram Rebel? (Largely vs Titan Pro-4X)
I thought I narrowed down my new (used) truck search to the Titan (dropped the Raptor from consideration as I just can’t justify it as hard as I try at the current price points even for used ones and the PowerWagon is too much for my needs). Anyone own a Rebel that would share their...- cedahm

Madison Stoneflies - late June
So after a few stops and starts on planning a small summer roadtrip, we ended up renting a place outside of Ennis at the end of the month. I haven't been on the Madison in ~20 years. I've heard it's changed some :). Are the stories of bumper boats and 30 minutes idling at the ramps accurate...- cedahm

Buddy of mine got me a pair of these as a gift after 'guiding' him to a bull last year. I have about 40-50 miles on them and due to the weird shape of my right foot they are simply not breaking in adequately (I have this problem with most footwear - definitely my issue and not the boots - my... -

A Boy and his Bonefish
We have been coming down to Eleuthera (an Outer island of the Bahamas) for 15 years. It is to DIY bone fishing what the Rockies are to DIY Elk.

New Mexico Antelope management change proposal
I came across this on the NMGFD website today after seeing a comment somewhere. Not sure if it's been posted or not. NM is proposing to more or less do away with the current A-PLUS Antelope hunt management system ("A-PLUS" = Antelope Private Land Use System) whereby tagholders are assigned to... -
WTS: Sitka Delta Wading Jacket XL (+hat)
I bought a Sitka Delta jacket (Waterfowl Optifade pattern) at ISE Denver last year. New ones retail for $399, show price on this one was ~$320. Have worn it once - to walk the dogs in the neighborhood. It's a great jacket, I just have too many waterproof shell jackets and I hunt ducks too...- cedahm
