Congratulations on the turkey and retirement Ernie! I have 8 more years to go. Don't sit around too much, it's  not good for ya. I threw that wild trout river at ya awhile back and I believe my nephew offered our mountain to look for that yellow rattlesnake you want. And hey... you have so much knowledge on predator hunting you could hold classes on calling/setup/tactics for coyote/fox. Make a little cash to pay for the ammo. I'd be the first to sign my amateur butt up! Just saying... again congratulations!

I am still interested in checking out there for snakes.
I also hope to be doing a class or two this coming year. I enjoy just having everybody getting together for the same sport.

Buckwheat, you mentioned Snake hunting.
Here's a little something you can do in your retirement-
Early this month, I camo'd my Snake hooks. I just hate being in the woods with something shiny in my hand. Beginning of May I use a Snake hook to move weeds, poison ivy, briars & leaves while looking for Morels.
I'll take a picture and post here.

Last season, I started to carry a Snake hook to hunt Morels. Comes in handy.

LegLifter made these for me a few years ago. I just had to Camo... 8)

Hern they are real nice snake sticks... My problem when I'm shrooming I sometime get so excited when I find the mother load that I lay my stick down... So I actually put orange on my shroom sticks... so I can see them laying on the ground big time before I depart from all the pickings.. A piece of orange duct tape wrapped around a few areas works great and then you can remove it during non shroom adventures..

Same for deer hunting... I like a orange handled folding knife and a fixed blade in orange... Smokey Mtn knife works in Tn is the best place to get them at a good price..


I left the nicest $48.00 shooting stick in the woods one Morel season... those Morel cost me!!!!

Most of my woods tools have some area of painted orange.
If you find a camo'd Snake hook hanging on a branch, bring it home with you and return it to me ;D.
UB, here's a tip for you that I use...I spray painted a bag or two of clothes pins Orange to mark my Cable Restraint location and water trapping location. They aren't as obvious (to other's eyes) as surveyor's tape but get the job done.
