Bear and deer season have been closed since the first of December. Had an awesome bear season as all hunters had the opportunity to harvest a bear. If you would like to see a real cool video by a hunter from Justin, TX it is on my web site at www.blackbearoutfitters.ca.

Now, what does everyone do during the off season....here in Nova Scotia Canada we build fish shacks and set them on the ice for some ice fishing with spears. Can anyone spot the fish, the tip of the spear, and the bait line?

Framing of the shack is now complete and time for a brown pop...aka Vitamen O



My ole buddy stands in the shack as it is 90% completed....he is only 5'1"



Dragging it across the ice on our homemade sled....



Set up and ready for action....


Can you spot the end of the spear, the smelt(fish), and the bait line hanging in the hole???

It would be totally awesome if we had the weather you have there but then again, I would miss out on the ice fishing, the coasting with the kids, hot chocolate after coasting, skiing, making snowmen with the kids, snowmobiling, and all the other winter activities we can do with snow. woot

I think and plan on how the next deer season can be even better - I do everything possible to make sure our lease and camp and ranch is set for the coming season and each of us can get excited about the animals that will be there next season

We also build fish shacks.

We just call them deer blinds.

Ahh. I take the kids to 3 parks by the house. Texas Parks and Wildlife stocks them with rainbow trout and the kids have a blast. There Is also some public land for squirrel, rabbit and feral hog near by. There is no off season for us. There's always a season for something. I just need to clean the garage first. clap 15 minutes north freswater fishing, 30 minutes east squirrel, rabbit and hogs, and 20 minutes south satlwater fishing. My family and I are truly blessed with options.


Sometimes it's hard being me! But somebody has to do it.
