tgilson, you are not missing much fishing Columbia.... There is great bass but not much in the eating sense.... I'll be down your way for spring turkey thats for sure!!!!
I've never turkey hunted. I always wanted to, but don't have a clue where to go or how to do it.

Funny you say that about fishing down here - I got spoiled in AK and since I've been back I've been heading north to Manistee or Ludington to launch my boat for spring browns & steelhead...cold, but fun!

I have never turkey hunted either. Although when deer hunting I use a turkey call when walking to and from my stands. If I see turkeys in the field I call to them and have had great success bringing them within bow range. I had one jake in and out of my ladder 2 years ago. My cousin is the big turkey slayer down in Hillsdale Co. He will be showing me and my daughters the ropes this year.

I haven't done much serious fishing since I got out of the military. I was spoiled with the ocean and catching sharks on the migratory runs. I do love to get out walleye fishing though when I have the chance......

On both private and public land.I chase steelies in the Grand, Big Manistee, Little Manistee, Betsie,and the Rogue.I have a VERY understanding and supportive girlfriend who has 2 kids (1 of each). I also enjoy chaseing bunnies in the winter.

I went to high school in Gwinn for a bit, lived in the wee town of Arnold on almost 3700 acres, population 16. There was nothing better than bowhunting October up there with 10" of snow on the ground...... Sure do miss that place!!!!!!!

Small world, eh? My daughter graduated from Gwinn in 2003 and my son's a senior there now. We live on a lake between Gwinn and Arnold - they weighed in a 500+ lb bear down there last fall!

I killed a nice doe with my bow in a foot of fresh snow on October 14th. (yeah, I know - that rhymes)

Once a Yooper, always a Yooper!

Just curious... Is Carl's Knotty Pine Bar still there and Cott's General store?
I use to be in the Knotty Pine daily while my Grandpa played cribbage against this old guy named Zip.... You ever heard of the DeBackers?? Largest tater farmers in those parts. The memories, the memories.... Escanaba State Fair!! Good times............ I painted the church in Watson in 1987, punishment for riding my 4 wheeler all the way to Escanaba to see a girl, got caught just past the Mead Plant at 2 am... Gpa was not happy with me, called me the midnight rider till the day he past LOL......
