I'm in the process of selling my boat and the buyer was supposed to meet me tomorrow at the ramp for final test drive and to finish up the deal at 8 am.

Now he won't be able to make it till 1pm, which leaves me with an open morning schedule.

My dilemma is this:

I can go with the boat early for what is probably gonna be my last time on her and do a bit of fishing on lake Dunlap.

I can go deer hunting in the morning, rut is in full swing but with the moon being full and all I don't know what I'll see.

I can go to the gym like I normally do on Wednesday mornings....ill have an opportunity to hunt Thursday evening as well.


What would you do?


Also, if I do go hunt, should I take my bow and hunt out of a pop up like I swore I was gonna do or take out my trusty .270 which I haven't hunted with in a few years and let it breathe for a bit?


For it is not the quarry that we truly seek, but the adventure.

Go to the lake with a bunch of beer. Pick up some hippy chicks and have a party.

This is the THF. It's rifle season. Decision should be easy.

I wouldn't take the boat out if it was me, too much of a chance for something to happen to make the sale go south.

I'd go fishing. With this moon I'd go about 10:00 and fish until the meeting.

Hunt, baby, hunt.

Fishing is just piddling. Plus, you can fish any dang time.

I think you got a concensus here.... fishing season is when hunting season isn't on.


To be sure of hitting the target, shoot first and call whatever you hit the target.

I went for a brief bit yesterday while waiting on the guy to get to the ramp and I realized I don't like to fish near as much as I used to
