OPENING DAY!

Well boys, it’s almost here!

Time to chase the fat off of the Mules once again , as well from ourselves!

Who will attend the opener? What’s for dinner? Where will the first hunt be?

Will Chip remember his key to the trigger lock?

All this and more on the next season of 2015 “Troop in da’ wood”

Comments are appreciated…..

Refrigerator Bear

This guy knows how to open a refrigerator.  He got into our beer refrigerator down by my truck box.  I hope he does’nt think the food in our camp is on his menu.  He’s been seen tearing the top off the dumpster , pulling down a feeder and digging in a cooler on Dan’s front porch in the park. Its only a matter of time before he gets into a camp. I hope its not ours. The one picture of his leg is him in the refrigerator and one of a coyote passing by.

Its open season on bears this year boys.

Ok Boys,

Here we go again! Yet another year has passed and it’s time to ready the installation for mule related adventures, which will be here quicker than a progressive socialist liberal placing a Bernie Sanders bumper sticker over the O-bomba sticker on a Prius!

What will be the assignments this year? Two teams to recon the backcountry, including the rescue team?

Low cost, subsidized organic-free-range firewood sales to the general public?

Woodlot clearing so we can see Marsh again and receive the TV signals better from the flatland?

Rebuild the shitter, including more space for storage?

Any more ideas?

Future F Trooper

The Storks grandson    Hunter William Passmore    Age 7

Caught this trout in the first beaver flow  9″ big  He missed a bigger one of at least 12″

He also is the youngest ever to take the Panther Mtn. Stream plunge.  Fell in off the bank and over his head.  Yours truly had to jump in and yank him back up, but he was swimming, only in the wrong direction while coughing up a lung full.

He told his dad he wanted to keep fishing and caught several more trout, but not keepers.

Berretta Croaked

Danny Johnson known to us as Berretta died recently.  He hunted with us in Minerva, Johnsburg and here in Piseco.  We called him Berretta cause he carried a gun in his boot.  To shoot what ? ?  No body knows.

He shot the smallest bear ever in Piseco with a .375 H&H Magnum.  Three boots long. His kill picture still hands in the camp.  We’ll miss him.
