We need our Outdoors life back
With the Covid,the stress,the isolation,with the lack of outdoors activities,with the lack of fresh adventures related to our favorite pastime............it is just me, or it seems the Forum is hitting a new low .
No offence to anyone.I still like to come on the Forum,but more and more there is not really much new,not much to read with any interest,just the same old and old and old.
Beating up the dead horse in several threads,over and over and over again.
No offence to anyone.I do respect anyone's right for opinion,and right to post,i do realize i do not "have" to be on this Forum at all too,but man,oh man.................
My rant for the day.

Yep.
Gonna start my bear baits up this weekend. Hopefully have something decent to post in the next month.

You still have your outdoors life, hunting and fishing are legal and so is walking around, hiking on crown land a whole wack of other things.
Cabin fever gets to everyone, I think the worst part of the Covid thing for my outdoor life is the range closure, should have run down there a few times before everything locked up but being a dad trumped that for me, and now we wait.

Lots of action in the turkey forum now. Not sure if you're a turkey hunter yourself. If not it's a good time to start! It's pretty common to get to a "low" around here at the end of winter into early spring. Then, turkey season and soft water fishing seasons start and people have new things to discuss.
Just cabin fever, exacerbated by the current shutdown situation. Start something interesting to discuss!

One of the benefits of turkey hunting is that you can do it alone or keep your distance from others while you do it. Taking your kids out with you, especially if you have a blind, can be fun. A very good year for turkey hunting with the milder and drier weather. Toms and Jakes are gobbling and the hens are calling. Some really big birds this year as well.

CA's,boat launches and county forests need to opened ASAP. There was no reason to close them in the first place,IMHO. People are spending too much time cooped up inside from the erroneous perception that it was a law that we stay in at home. In Durham Region,domestics are through the roof from frustration and just getting on each other's nerves.

Fox-in my neck of woods there is no crown land.If i go up north-no camping.If i want to go to a motel-who knows what is open.If.Here south there are CA's(mostly closed)Parks(all closed).I gave up on permission to hunt 20 year ago-not much takers for a guy who no one knows.I am not starting NOW in the virus area. I developed my style of hunting in CA's and Parks(pay for use most)It works for me..............So yeah ,hunting is open,so does flying in the space with SpaceX-if i have the means. Otherwise i never picked up turkey ,gave up after trying.Just not for me,i recon.Ranges closed,and walking around is not much topic for anyone .
Not crying -just saying
My post was also geared towards the whole situation on the forum too.....some say it is cabin fever.......

Thanx GW11 - i gave up turkey hunting shortly after i started.Maybe because even then i was looking for deer signs(rubs,scrapes,beds)maybe because public land turkey hunting is even harder then public land deer hunting.Not crying-just saying.Fishing-that was a deal with my wife,either hunting or fishing(or none she said
)so i stuck with hunting.Then work and then family.....
Maybe one day........
I will think about your idea to start some new thread/threads .Just something less talked about....
