[South Carolina Redfish]

Our blinds at night and the front part of our setup.  We did about 3 dozen geese behind us, 1 dozen in front of us, 1 dozen ducks in front of us and 4 robos.

WTF?  Those Dakota foul are skittish.....in NJ, just walk up to the lake or lawns around the lake and start blasting....heck they'll even walk up to you.
Only problem is our hunting season is pretty short......November 24 6-8 bow and arrow, 8-11:30 small game, 12-2 buck, 2-3 doe.

Not so here for Deer - Guns of anykind except rimfire bucks and does from the first Saturday in November to mid January, then a 2 week youth season.  Archery starts the 1st week or so of October then runs to the end of gun season.  And we are still over run with deer everywhere.

I don't need a blind or stand or even my gun.  Hell, I can reach out my back door and stab a 10 pt buck with a steak knife....except of course that they're twice as big as the ones you see.

Do you guys have mule deer up there or are they whitetails?  We just get the whiteys, little babies but man they taste good!

Just whitetail, but they're fed all year on manicured lawns and ample landscaping.  I would say bucks average 150-180.

Yeah that's about our size, maybe a little smaller, lots around 200-260...or, the ones worth shooting.

here in the hill country nice older 8-10 pt might go 140 but usually closer to 125.  I bagged a larger 13 point several years ago and he was about 145.   NOt so big where there is almost nothing to eat most of the time.  Now down in South Tx they got some bigger deer that can run in the 165-180 range with massive racks.

Morning Antnee and Littlefish.

How's Thursday looking for you?  That question goes for you too, Scott.

It's looking like the day after Wednesday, what's cookin'? Planning on being late to something?

I'd like to try.  What say you?

Not sure, my weekly routine has changed significantly since changing my hours and getting the kids off the bus. I'd probably have to meet later than I've been, would need to wait for the wife to get home before I could get on the road

So in other words I'll be sitting there by myself for two hours and you'll get there the same time as Tony.

Probably, but I'll get there when I say I'm going to be there, unlike Tony

Don't forget, last time he arrived BEFORE you!

I beg to differ, last time was at your house and I was 2 beers in before he trotted up the driveway.

Did he make it to the Princeton B&M before me that last time? An absolute fluke IF that's what happenned

[A Friend of Charlie]

Hey Tony, Media Noche's for you.

And this used to be my favorite vitola too.  Either they don't age so well or my preferences have changed drastically over the years.  This used to be a top 5 cigar for me and now I wouldn't keep it on my "to buy" list.  Price isn't that attractive either.

[A Friend of Charlie]

So enough with the bullshitting.  Are you guys interested in getting together or not?  Perhaps you know of a decent B&M in the Flemington area?  Just looking for a middle ground.

Don't think there is anything near Flemington, just Princeton.  Only one I know of in that area is Ashes and Embers in Somerville, but I've never been there.  Brick House in South Plainfield says you can smoke there....north of that is more in your area of influence.

I wouldn't mind visiting a "new to all of us" shop.  I'll already be south and I don't want to inconvenience anyone so I'd prefer to keep the herf below Route 78.

Obvious fabrication. Tony doesn't trot.

We all tend to change our likes and dislikes but many times circle back around too.  Travellin Dave's Fault!

Good Monday morning all!

[sfish]

If you need to start making plans or begging your wife for permission, now's the time to start. CF 2015 will be May 1-2.

@LTG - Are those dates official?
