I hope I never witness that my friend. :)

Filson. The only pants for brush. Get the cuffs trimmed with leather. http://www.filson.com/sm-double-tin-pants--pi-2092283.html I am on my 3rd pair in the course of 25 years and my son still wears what's left of my first pair. I wear the Mod. No. 32 vest all the time on PBX hikes. It's...

Lacrosse Burlys for wet hiking and hunting. They are warm and stand up to a lot of abuse. http://www.lacrossefootwear.com/product/recreation/rubber+boots/burly+trac-lite+800g+hunting+boots.do For hunting and hiking in dryer conditions I like Irish Setters. I have a pair from Dicks that I...

Al, I have baked and smoked pickerel many times and they are a delicious mild fish. Smoked over hickory after brining overnight in kosher salt, fresh garlic and brown sugar is killer. The bones, however, are a living nightmare. There are bones over the bones and some bones that are just...

It was great day in the wilds east of Chatsworth with some woods worthy pals. I scored it a 9 out 0f 10 only because I would have preferred to spend more time along the Branch and we had to skip an interesting canal because we were running short on daylight toward the end. Here is the first...

Interesting. No penalties until the State designates at least one riding area on State land. http://www.courierpostonline.com/article/20100113/NEWS01/1130343/Off-road-vehicle-bill-OK-d

A follow up to 46'er's article. http://www.courierpostonline.com/article/20100113/NEWS01/1130341/1006/news01/Pinelands-board-gets-new-member

I do acquisition work for municipalities with the assistance of the Green Acres program and the program does not prohibit hunting. Praise the Lord. Obviously the guy you encountered doesn't own the woods and if he asked you nicely to avoid his spot I would abide. If he insists on being...

Still have a Cobra Mod. 29 CB with built in NOAA alert in my red truck. It's helpful and amusing on a long trip along major highways. Locally, there is nothing much on the air. Here it is and still readily available: http://cobra.com/products/mobile-cb-radios/29-ltd-classic

You am crazy bro. Burton Baton ?

I did some Pinelands permitting for a sand operation in Hamilton behind the AC racetrack a number of years ago. The Pinelands Commission recognizes the indigenous qualities of sand mining in the pines and the permitting process is not as bad as it is with residential development This...

I was thinking "Lucky" all along. With a very happy ending landing in a nice warm home, the name certainly fits. Scott

A quiet walk indeed. No furbearing critters to be seen or heard. Just looking for a change of scenery and quietude. Muzzleloader ends Friday in my zone and I hope to bag one locally tonight or tomorrow night.

I was taking the muzzleloader for a walk down Goodwater Run Road around the Quaker Bridge area today. There is a washout on the west side of the bridge that has a truck swallower scour hole in it where the river breached the road a few days ago. I had my son's woods beater truck but I...

That is a very touching story Ed. You're a good man. I am glad someone from this site can take it. How about a naming contest ?

Merry Christmas to everyone here. God bless all. I'm off to a little Christmas duck hunt on the bogs across the road. Pics to follow, I hope. I am getting a new camera today but I am not allowed to open it until later this morning. Scott

Jerseyman, your Christmas gifts to us are overwhelmingly generous. I am enjoying these excerpts immensely. I feel like the host who has a long lost uncle unexpectedly stop in for a Christmas visit and he has an armload of gifts for everyone in the house. I go scrambling in the kitchen for a...

Welcome to the site. Bring on the early gun club photos ! Scott

You are correct JM, a very pleasant read indeed. I found his assessment of the people of the pines particularly interesting and his descriptions of the endless, forking roads and monotonous landscape are heard today from the uninitiated. A great quote from the article: "All the roads in the...

Mark, If I had to guess, they are referring to the Raleigh Land and Improvement Company. Raleigh carved up most of Waterford proper where I live and some of the roads were actually built, like Wharton Avenue, in the woods in front of my house. I have a copy here at work of the "Town of...
