Since I am already thinking about next season and September hunts, does anyone have personal experience using a Durston X-Mid tent? I don't think I am cool enough to warrant the Dyneema version, but have used a TarpTent for several years, and really like the packability and lightweight of these...
Kara's bull is unreal! Such a wild tangle of antlers and the mass was crazy. I like that one more than the other, but wouldn't pass up a shot either way. Great hunt and video!
I came across this on a national archives site:
"The Homestead Act remained in effect until 1976, with provisions for homesteading in Alaska until 1986."
"Remained"? Past tense? Is it even legally recognized anymore?
Also this is interesting. So, this group has been there for 5 years...
I understand. I, too, have made questionable food and beverage choices when caught in the downward spiral brought on by misses, blown stalks and long days without seeing much game. I recently ate a giant sub sandwich from a gas station with a Peanut Nut Roll side dish, all washed down with a...
If you say/use/hear anyone else use these, I have made a handy list to help diagnose the problem so people can get the help they need:
TOTAL GAME CHANGER! = Low self esteem
SMOKED A GIANT! = Even lower self esteem
OH, I GOT HIM LEAKING! = Awkward in public settings and can't help telling jokes...
Anyone who says "I am currently RUNNING"....xyz gun, etc.
Running? I like to run..., last season I ran..., etc. What in the hell are you talking about? Do you mean you USED something? Where did that even start?
Second to the loud music in campgrounds! This summer we had a group next to us roll in late, set up, and then blasted shitty tunes through a boombox that had LED lights on it that changed color to the beats....I about lost my mind...

Awesome advice, thanks for that! Also appreciate the reel suggestions. I was looking at a few in the 6500 to 8000 range, so that helps knowing your personal experience.
From the Outdoor Industry Assoc. 2022 report:
The 2023 Special Report on Hunting and the Shooting Sports provides a comprehensive look at the more than 14 million Americans ages 6 and over who participated at least once in hunting with both firearms and archery equipment in 2022. The report...
That I am not 100% sure about. When I went, and was spearfishing in particular, I speared about 4 fish one day (triggerfish and 3 small snappers) and fishing from the beach kept a few pargo and threw back a bunch of smaller random fish. All roosterfish get released.
That would likely be a...
I will check out that reel for sure. Appreciate it!
Regarding the rabbit hole question, on the regs/license side, I have used sites like this: https://app.sportfishingbcs.gob.mx/ppd/system/. to find the right permit.
One nice thing in Mexico is if you are fishing from the beach or accessing...
You are on the right path for sure. I am a fan of a release with a strap for many of the same reasons, and I really like having it right there when I need it, regardless of if I am glassing, ranging, etc.
Yep, every release can be adjusted, but on the Carter release, the tension range goes...
Take a look at the Quick Attach Zoid bags for internal storage/organization. The clear sides makes it easy to see your gear. You can fit two in the 75 or 100 and I think one on the 50.
Get a Carter Like Mike II Index Finger Release. The amount you can adjust the tension is awesome. It was the fix for my target panic, and is so well made. You can also be sure you will never ask about Cam again and a release. Just a thought.
Hey all of you saltwater drinking fishing legends who crush big fish on surf casting setups. Can you part with some knowledge on a solid 10-11' surf casting rod and reel with the intent of targeting 10 to potentially 30 or 40 lb. fish?
The family and I are headed back to Baja this summer, and I...
