    Default CHUCK VID & Fishin pics

    Went out this AM at first light. Not my best time to hunt chucks and also gettin' up before 5 AM. I really enjoy doing these field videos, but it is unrealistic to use my little camera. Let's see how my son can fix me up for the future with one of his oldies sittin' on a shelf. The early morning was beautiful. A few hours of seein' nuthin'. Lets pack it in. Had my .204 unloaded as I approached my truck. Had the tailgate down (why ? a senior moment). Parked on the same dairyman's access road to his fields, that I shot a chuck on 7 / 10 days ago. Took a glance up hill and sure enough, I picked up color. But, the chuck had me dead to rights--spooked. I had absolutely no cover. No where to hide. WAIT ! ! I'll lay under my tailgate. Maybe 15 / 20 minutes passed there is the head sticking out of the awfulls. I had the camera set up, but not on zoom. When you see the VID, I had to shoot through an opening in tall grass. With my 9000 pound portable camouflage grey truck hidin' me, the chuck bit and calmed down. She walked out and gave me a broad sider at her. Through the scope I saw her lift off of the ground and had a hard landing comin' back in. Even with full screen I don't think you will see this.
    I got to thinkin' about my batting average. I am way down in count, but I don't have a miss this year. A single shot H&R .204, that A-5 calls Black Beauty.

    Since there has been some chatter about fishin' I threw a few pics in. 1) NICE BASS 2) My guys skimpy stringers, I only needed one 3) This is for real. A spring in Florida. I'm the only one swimmin' (chasin' bass), then eyeball to eyeball with a gentle 700 lb giant. What a thrill for 10 minutes. If video blocks pictures, just click on pic again. VID will disappear.

    Yes it's black beauty and boy is it accurate. I have the 20g ultra slug hunter and they are very sweet shooters. Boy those fish picks are the best specialy the one on the right.
