Turkey Time!!

Now we KNOW it’s spring!!!  The wonderful weather that our area is famous for is finally here, our true Carolina blue skies are an every day norm… and the turkeys are strutting and dancing and putting on their show!  This year we have several days of special youth spring turkey hunts then the open season starts on Saturday.  The turkeys are out in strong numbers and we are looking forward to ringing in spring time with all our hunters!!  We were fortunate enough to crank up this year’s youth season with our dear friend Daniel… a fantastic young man and always a joy to spend time with…. not to mention a great marksman!  UNBELIEVABLE GOBBLER!!!  Congratulations!!!!

Spring Rock

It seemed like winter would never loosen her grip on North Carolina but she finally has backed off a bit… and just in time!  Spring time is Rockfish time and we have had several fantastic groups that braved the chilly “pre-spring” weather to target these super fun fish…. Thanks to everyone!!! 

 

Youth Days 2013 :)

We had the honor of being able to take several fine young people out to share the beauty of mother nature and the waterfowl of our area.  A huge thank you to all of our young hunters and also their families for allowing us to participate in fostering a growing appreciation for wildlife and the outdoors in our youth.  It is tremendously rewarding to see members of the next generation becoming involved in activities so often replaced by ipods and cell phones… Thank you again and Congratulations to everyone on a fantastic job!!!

Swans….

Always a blast to have this crew!!! Thank you guys so much…. can’t wait til next time!!

The Season draws to a close…

Another season is behind us… bitter sweet as always.  We are so fortunate to have so many guys that are not simply our hunters but are true and special friends.  We get so use to seeing you during the season and we truly miss your company once the season is done.  Thank you so much to everyone!  This year proved to be an exciting and challenging one… 70 degree weather and crazy winds… all to wrap up with welcomed shifts in temperature and wind direction.  Despite mother nature the hunting was great and the time spent even better!  We are already planning and looking forward to 2013-2014… Can’t wait to see everyone again!!

Duck Season 2012-2013

It’s almost here!  The season finally opens Saturday with much anticipation for great hunts and awesome time with all our hunters!  The ducks are here despite the unseasonable warm weather and we are thankful to be ringing in another season with the addition of some fantastic locations and lots of excitment.  A quick pre-season trip to the central flyway wrapped up just in time to finish prepping and get ready for 6 weeks of hard work and tons of fun 🙂

First Deer for Blain :)

With duck season rapidly approaching, Karl took a breather from preparations and spent a little time in the woods with 3 fine young men.  Congratulations to Blain for getting this beautiful buck as his first deer!!!  What a fantastic shot!  We have high hopes that this initial outing will set the stage for many more to come for him.  Cannon and Jarrod… you guys are next!
