Getting ready for the seasons

When you are getting ready for the season, there are some things that you should do before everything begins. One thing is that what are you hunting from like a tree stand, a hunting blind, or just sitting down behind a tree. If you are using a tree stand and it is still in the tree, go out and look at it to make sure everything is in working order. If it is like my tree stand it has a ratchet strap that keeps it connected to the tree. You would want to make sure that the ratchet strap is still in working order and that it has not ripped anywhere or loosened. If you hunt from a hunting blind most likely you had taken it down after last season. Get it out and pop it up to make sure there are no holes in it, and it doesn’t smell like mouse feces. Some hunters like setting up their blinds early in the season so it starts looking like it belongs there. Though my blind is easy to set up so I will set it up every time I go out and take it down every time I leave. If you are just hunting behind a tree and sitting on a log, I suggest that you make a small ground blind out of tree limbs and sticks so that you sent won’t be thrown around everywhere while your hunting. I suggest that you throw a game camera out so that you can see what is passing by your spot, and the great thing about that is that you don’t have to be there when the animal walks by. I use one and I was able to get some photos of foxes and turkeys and in the beginning, I didn't know what was all out there. By placing it on a tree I was also able to get many photos of Does and Bucks. The great thing about a trail camera is that it can show you the date and time of when the photo was taken. By this you will be able to see when the game you are after are at your hunting location. I like this because I can see when the deer are more likely to come to my spot. With the camera I found out I will have better luck hunting in the evening. The morning is when there are turkeys in my spot and its only deer season right now.

Fishing

Fishing is my favorite activity, because it takes patience and drive. Many people don't like fishing because they believe it is boring and that you never catch anything. And my response every time is that, that’s why they call it fishing and not catching. there are sometimes that I don't catch anything. Still, I know that there are fish below me. When I have those days that I haven't catched anything, I know I got to go back out there to redeem myself and maybe I made a mistake and that's why the fish aren’t biting. You can break it down to about 2 factors. One factor is that what time did I go out there. Because I have found that some ponds the best fishing is in the morning and the other ponds are best fishing at night and there are some/most that you can fish there in the morning and night and catch a lot. The second factor is that maybe I used the wrong bate, because usually I use fake bait. Though in a lot of cases I have found that some ponds are better fishing wi...

Why to Hunt

Some people hunt just to get competitive gain over other people, some people do it so that they can be proud of what they shot and get it mounted, though I do it for the meat. Though its hard to just go out and kill something if you don’t know what that particular species of animals like. For example, if you are hunting for deer, they like corn and nice green grass. They usually only come out in the early mornings and later in the evening. So it would not be a wise choice to go out at high noon because the only thing you are likely to see is squirrels and birds. Now if your hunting for squirrels don’t sit in a field because they don’t run through fields they are tree climbers. So the smart thing to do is To go out in the woods and find a nice stop to sit on and just wait for the squirrels to run around and chase each other. Usually for squirrel hunting you can throw some jeans on in a camo shirt and that'll do you justice. Not like when you're hunting for deer you should wear a...

Where to Hunt

There are many places that you can hunt if you are unable too hot on your property, some reasons are that you live in the city and there is no possible way that you would be able to hunt on your land. Other times is that your land is a farm and some people don't like to hunt on their farm due to their livestock. Many states have areas of land scattered around their state that permit you to hunt on the property with a license and a permit. But as you might think these properties or sometimes overcrowded with hunters that the population can dwindle down quickly and the only thing, you'll be able to find are baby deer. And with most state regulated land they do not permit you to bait on the property and with that some do not permit you to put up a tree stand. Like my state they do not permit you to have a tree stand but every time you go out you can put up your ground blind. I hunt on my farm because no one else is allowed to hunt on it and so I don't have a problem with overc...
