I watched this Barred Owl hunt Moles late one afternoon in the woods near my house. It caught the first one and ate it, then went down for a second, before flying away to a higher perch and devouring it. this particular shot was taken just after the owl caught its second mole.
Move along son!

Bigger bait, bigger Bass!
Every year I build a snow sculpture in my front yard. This year I made a giant lure because I love Bass fishing and I’m ready for fishing season- I’ve got the itch and there is still about four months until it gets warm enough to fish.

Miss B playin the waiting game
Duck hunting in the Finger Lakes in January is a frosty proposition for my Lab Buzz. I had just unloaded my gun on a flock of Redheads without cutting a feather. After some strong verbal encouragement from my brother I looked at Buzz and decided to snap this photo. I think you can imagine what she was thinking of me…..
Dad’s Proudest Moment!
I could just see the rack moving in the two foot undergrowth. I crawled to the next tree about 20 yards closer and slide up the tree and took my shot and smoked him.

My Greatest Accomplishment
We were fishin at our normal spot in Cooper’s Creek which is in Suches, Ga. My drag took off and after about a 30 min fight, I saw this huge fish roll up. I ordered my boyfriend to get in there and get it out. He threw it on the bank and the hook popped out. It measure 26 inches and weighed about 8 pounds.
carp caught on flyrod
Using my 50 year old flyrod, I regularly catch common carp in a local lake. For bait I mix up Wheaties & Strawberry soda to a paste & using a small treble hook, I gently cast off my dock. The biggest so far is a 32 inch, 23 pounder. It took 35 minutes to net the beast.
Arkansas Mallards

Love at first cast
Venice La, me and my father in law went this past May 08′. We decided that the spin vs. fly was the way to have a good time. With this picture I declare myself “the user of the fly” and winner of this event. I will give him credit, he caught more fish than I did, but I think this photo speaks for itself.
Finally!!!
After hunting on state land in the Adirondack State Park in Up-State New York for almost 20 years I finally came accross the buck of a lifetime for me. Now I have shot a few nice 5 and 7 pointers up there but this is the big-bodied-brusier I have always dreamed about. It may only have 8 points but it still looks great to me!!!
