The best tide source I have found is www.saltwatertides.com It has tidal info for every state and at multiple locations along each body of water including rivers and streams. Scott

I grew up in Gibbsboro and hunted that landfill for deer and small game starting in 1968. It was owned by the Buzby Brothers. The deer have been there at least that long. My father dropped me off one night to bowhunt there with a friend of mine and we got stalked by a pack of dogs that used to...

As Guy knows, I am a licensed land surveyor and the term "native stone" to surveyors means the original stone, whatever the material. When the State surveyed Wharton and other tracts they would not remove or disturb native corners. If the state was to share a common coerner with private...

Bob, If you are familiar with NJDEP Imap, checkout the 2002 image versus the 1995 image at x coord 403426, y coord 321285. Scott

I am talking about the one on Chew Rd., not Wade Salvage on Jackson Rd.

Yes Bob, I am sure. I have a 1977 aerial of the site at home showing the farmhouse that is now boarded up and just a few scattered cars in the vicinity of Myers' current dwelling to the west. I figure he started in early to mid 1970's, so you can assume that vehicles that were being driven in...

I can tell you that the best time to explore is now or in the fall. The only place I have been to with a worse mosquitoe population is the Everglades. In broad daylight back in in the marshes they will drive you right out. I was down there in '86 on some of the Park System trails and it...

The Waterford Township Env. Commission Chairman advised me last night that the cleanup has been postponed until Saturday 4-30-05. He also told me that they will be able to take in all types of metal, recylclables and all types of general trash. He said they will have a 30 yd. dumpster. He...

Looking at the forecast, I think they are going to have to go for the rain date of 4-9. Typically this is a light duty girlyscout kind of cleanup with a lot of roadside trash getting picked up. It is still very beneficial. The W.T. Env. Commission was excited last year when they heard about...

I am posting an email I received from the Waterford Township Environmental Commission regarding their cleanup on Saturday 4-2-05.It is based at the Clementon Gun Club in Atco. Last year I participated in a large scale Wharton cleanup in November at Atsion . The cleanup was organized by the...

Guy and I share a similar interest in finding old survey markers. I enjoy it because I am a land surveyor and I love being in the woods as much as possible. I know Guy loves the woods as much as I do and he has accumulated a wealth of skills in finding these markers over the years.. Me and...

I find that if you leave the birds in the nest, it makes for a nice woodsy snack after it lights. Scott :)

My wife and I and my sons eat 10-15 squirrels every season and they are very good. I have an endless supply right out the door. I like hunting squirrels almost as much as deer and they are almost as smart. I am not talking about the ones in the yard eating out of a birdfeeder. I usually...

In case anyone is interested in some tools for deciphering these docs, here are the old units of measure. Chain = 66' There are 100 links to a chain. A link is 0.66' A rod is 16.5' Most old road right-of-way widths are in increments of a rod. Most current State Highways are 66' wide which...

I walked right up on the taped-up conduits that I showed Guy when I was squirrel hunting back in February. I walk that stretch of swamp 5 or 6 times a year for squirrel in the early and late seasons. The conduits are within 80 yds of someone's baited deer stand and there was plenty of...

Later that same day, I found another spot in Atco under the high tension lines that was loaded with them. I actually saw two swimming. Where Guy and I saw them we couldn't actually see the frogs. They make a pretty good racket for such a small critter. Scott

Great search today Guy. I posted a photo from this morning in my gallery and am attaching one here. I just got back from my first crack at Geocaching with my wife. She thought it was great. We found one out of two that we looked for and I learned a lesson already. Always check the coords...

I liveline minnows most of the time and use a medium size broken-back Rapala when I don't have any bait. Rapala has a yellow perch pattern minnow that works really well too. Livelining seems to work the best. The minnow is free to swim where he wants and makes a lot of evasive moves when he is...

Sorry to nitpick Heather but I am a loon when it comes to trucks. It's "Cummins" and they are only made as an inline 6 for Dodge trucks. Dodge's V-10 is gone now and that was a gas job. But as you said, that can be your "dream" truck. Dodge uses the same manual in their heavy duties as the...

A buddy of mine made hard cider this year from fresh, unpasteurized apple cider that he bought. It didn't come out too good and he didn't add any sugar to boost the alcohol or leave any residual sweetness. When I make wine I add sugar to accomplish both. I am going to pass this thread on to...
