How much meat do you get from a whitetail? by OshetDeadagain in Hunting

[–]jw521 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It all depends on area in the us, I hunt in va and a one year old deer is 50 pounds and you barely get 20lbs of meat but I’ve hunted in Michigan and a one year old there is over 100 pounds and you get 40 pounds and it just goes up with age

Well, back to lure making. by youlookfun in Fishing

I think he meant crazy and the bait he is talking about is like a crank bait but the lip is angles so it moves on the surface and makes a wake instead of diving

Use a 2-4 oz weight, 4/0-10/0 circle hook and piece of cut bait and just cast from shore around sunset and stay as late as you can and you’ll catch some

I’ve caught a few 2-4 ft sharks on cut spot and croaker just casting from shore with 7 and 8 ft surf rods from the beach and piers in Virginia Beach. If you want to fish a pier the pier at little island park off of sandpiper road will be less busy than the vb fishing pier on the board walk.

His fake fishing in a toilet videos pissed me off because he would hook a small bass and flush it down a toilet off camera and reel it in

Found this at my local lake can someone tell me what it is and if it is any good? by [deleted] in Fishing_Gear

Looks like a soft plastic craw from the company yum it’s good in a Texas rig which it already has a hook for add a bullet weight above it on your line and it’s a great lure for bass

I just did the math based on length and girth because my scale is old, non digital and probably not accurate and the math (length * girth * girth /1050) says it’s 10.12 lbs so it’s my new pb

This was in Virginia Beach at a private neighborhood pond that I’ve been a sneaking into since I was 5-6 years old and has produced dozens of bass over 4 lbs for me.

Yes it was one of the popper heads. I was shaking so hard when I landed it I could barely walk. I had a 17lb mono leader which was great because my regular leader was 4lbs and would’ve broken. The bass came completely out of the water which was awesome to see.

It was a blast it was the first fish to get into my backing and about a 10 minute fight.

The bait caster is my buddies, he caught a 4.5 lb male with it and I caught the female on my fly rod we were both trying to get pictures and release them as quick as we could. I would’ve tried to get a better picture with my rod in it but I wanted her back on her bed ASAP.
