We have lots of reds here. I lipped-squeaked another one in while deer hunting last week. I saw him jump across a small creek about a hundred yards out and started lip-squeaking. He came in to about twenty yards before he smelled me or saw me and took off fast. That's the third time I've done that recently.
We hear them all the time. The most used vocalization is the scream they do, somewhere between a doe blowing at you and a startled women. We hear that year-round. Lots of times they are just inside the woods bordering my backyard after dark. It puts my dogs on high alert. We hear them barking too occasionally.
We're about to go in the negatives again, could I start now or is it more of a summertime making. I know it would do better in the heat but I'm just a little anxious to make some. If it helps I can maybe leave it in the water shed I try to keep that bout 40 so the pump doesn't freeze.
That wrap would feel better in your hand, if it was really cheap I'd probably do it, but if I had to spend more than $3-4 per wrap, it ain't worth it to me. I'm ok with the bails on my spinning reels though. I open and close them by hand anyway.

I had an outdoor wood boiler for many years. Had a propane furnace as a back up, but seldom used it. I finally quit using the wood boiler because the underground line sprung a leak. I still enjoy cutting wood in my woods for the exercise and give the wood away to a couple of my neighbors who have outdoor wood boilers and can use the wood. One of them has a really nice gun range I get to use whenever I want to. The other guy allowed me to trap on his many acres for years exclusively.
Well Savell, we'd welcome you up to cook for us outside in sub 0 weather, but you'll have to bring your own cold weather gear and an extra bag of charcoal to get the grill up to cooking temp.
Bingo. Trying to grill and smoke stuff when its 5 degrees and blowing 30 mph isn't a lot of fun
All joking aside I was skeptical on doing meats in it till I tried it. It's not as good as off the smoker or grill or flattop, but it ain't bad. Little olive oil and some rub pork chops and steaks come out pretty dang good.
And I'm not gonna debate food with folks that prefer bass and catfish over brook trout and walleye.

My daughter lives in LA.. the real LA.. not lower allybammy.. she was driving to work one morning, passed a middle school and glanced at the sign out front that said.. Happy Birthday Jesus.. she thought..wow!! How great! But then.. she thought.. wait a minute.. this is LA.. not middle Tennessee.. she couldn't believe a school there would be celebrating Jesus's birthday…?? So on the way home.. she looked a little more closely… sure nuff.. happy birthday Jesus, Maria and Simon.. who are all turning 10 today… LOL
Wow! She better hope that cancer called the ACLU doesn't see it.
Yes I assume is CC because of the flakes. My Dad preferred it over anything else for stopping traps from freezing up. It will melt ice or even lightly crusted traps, it creates heat when it gets wet. Dad used to run it through a thrift store blender to make it a powder. Dig trap bed, layer of CC dry dirt, bed trap CC then dirt again cover with CC and dirt till flush or slightly below ground.
I could see 5 grouse from the kitchen window cooking breakfast yesterday morning and another 4-6 out in the woods. They are up in the trees this time of the year picking apples and buds. Now, about this 50 pound tom hot spot................. [/quote]
Must be nice to have grouse cooking breakfast for you. Eggs?
