Is this area needed ?!?!!?

[Moosie]

I'm thinking of "PRUNING" some of the sites... I love the guys that post about hounds and hear the storys.. but I don't have much to contribute..... Should this section stay ? Should I combine it with Big game ? Should I be shot for even asking ?!?!?!

 

[Elkhunter]

I think it should stay Moosie. There are some hound hunters that need there own place to be. I do not contrubute but come here for the stories and pics. It is a separate way of hunting and I think it should stay. JMO.

 

[hntrjohn]

My vote is to have it stay.

I never post but check out this site alot. You got to keep the houndhunting section. At one time this was the best area on the board, in fact I think the stuff (mostly BS) I heard on this area contributed to me going out and getting my own dogs.


Here's a pic for you.

It should stay

I hope you keep it Moosie.This time of year is usually pretty slow for houndsmen boards i think.we cant run here till July 15.I did go visit a buddy in Vermont(they open June1 for training) last weekend but got downpoured out and never got a run.Left one new dog there for him to run if he gets a chance.
picked up a new rig for hunting this year.Some weeks i have 2 or 3 hunters and needed a little more room in the truck.I cant use a full size pickup here as the roads(really snowmachine trails) are too narrow.I bought a new Toyota Tacoma 4 door.Automatic,6 cyl,loaded. It has a full seat in the back.Plenty of room for 2 adults there.Bed is a little small but dog box fits.Will deal with bringing the bears out when the time comes !!!

 

[Moosie]

I'll keep it !!! It would have only took one to say to keep it and I would have

......

YOU had me at HELLO !!!!

 

[Elkhunter]

Thanks Oscar

 

[maineiac]

Thanks Moosie,you is da MAN!

Hey George my freind has the same set-up, there nice little rigs..going to be my next rig if I ever can find enough pop cans to turn in for deposit, but at 5 cents a can, I have along ways to go....LOL Maybe I should just get a real job and quit hunting as much so I can afford something now and then...LOL.

 

[George P]

They are pricey rigs Gatoman.Everything I looked at was though.I have leased my last 3 vehicles but bought this one.I looked at the Dodge dakota quad cab.I really liked it but it was just a little bigger than I wanted.Plus with the 8 cyl I thought it might be a little hard on gas.It was actually cheaper than the Tacoma I bought.When all the dealings done you are still talking about $25,000 for the Toyota.I think that is crazy but I like having new trucks.Having 4 doors is the big exspense.I kind of rationalize it by saying I need it for guiding and my rental properties.makes me feel a little better !!LOL I think I have spent any guiding profits about 3 times over already.I keep getting things and saying "well,I am paying for it with guiding money" ,then i look in my books!!!!!

 

[Tobey]

So George will I hafta go and brush out all the roads for your new truck now LOL

 

[George P]

Tobey, I was going to ask you to see what you can do about getting those roads paved!!LOL I am sure by the time we get together this summer it will be all broken in.Hows the fishing been??

 

[Tobey]

George Don't say (Paved) it will happen soon enuff.Fishing has been slow only about 300 bass in the last 8 days.I got Salmon fishermen for the next 3 days.I had today off my next day of is the 27th.
George theres more money in guiding fisherman then Bear hunters LOL
And there easier to dragg LOL

 

[George P]

If you catch pickeral or perch do you consider yourself to be trashy????
Tobey, I think there is more money to be made in ANY other type of guiding rather than bear with hounds.I am keeping a real accurate ledger this year.It is unreal how much I have spent already.Got an insurance quote of $1000 yesterday.Thats the best I can get including snowmachine coverage for winter hunters.
Like I was saying a year ago in this forum.If i can take 8 or 10 weeks off from regular job,pay for dogs food and exspenses,and break even as if I had worked all fall,I am a very happy guy !!! it worked last year.
How are the dogs doing ???

 

[Muledeer4me]

Good it stays.

 

[Tobey]

George Prickerel and Perch come home with me There my faverat LOL I feed them old wormy Bass to the fishermen
The dogs are doing fine A little bored but fine

 

[maineiac]

LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!! Tobey you're bad!!!!
