I saw so much critter activity today
« on: February 28, 2015, 10:39:56 PM »
I went to Gettysburg to eat at the Dobbin House with my wife.. On the round trip I counted  40 deer in the fields and 100 geese (4 flock of  about 25 each). for some reason the critters were really  moving today.. I saw some post on FB by some members.. they to were seeing all kinds of animals today moving...

I watched a coyote in an open field eating what's left of a deer carcass at 9:55 am this morning while driving home from a morning hunt.  It didn't mind me watching it at first but ran back to the wood line and dissapeared.

Dobbin House is the best place  to eat in Gettysburg. Wife and I was talking how we have had about 100  people eat there one time or another. Even had the Submarine coworkers there twice for Christmas office party. The one waitress even knows us now!  Who knows this meeting at Yankee Doodle goes well Maybe next meeting could be st Dobbin House. You ask they will give you a room upstairs and you order off the tavern menu which is cheaper.
Farnsworth that food is like K Rations!

This is so the Hi-Jack of all Hi-Jacked threads. ::) ::) ::) ::)  Quit messing up Jim's post. ;) ;) ;) ;) ;)  I can't leave you two alone for a second. :o :o :o :o :o :o  Who is signing you out of the retirement home so you can attend the breakfast ceremonies of the RHWTMTA, aka; Retired Hunters With Too Much Time Association :P :P :P :P :P :P  And does the home know you will be unsupervised?

PS:  It's not nice to call Buckwheat names.  He will throw a lightning bolt at you! ;) 
"Predators are either active & feeding, semi-active & callable, or utterly inactive & then practically speaking, no call is needed; we're just taking our guns for a walk. We can & should get used to it, & follow their leed cuz they just ain't eager nor apt to follow our’s any time soon!

Looking4fur.... I did put this post on here as a result of what your post started on FB on Saturday... Did you notice that a few people on here also killed a coyote that evening.. I was out yesterday and made  5 stands for coyotes and called in nothing.. I went to 5 areas of Cumberland and York county too... That LOW theory never worked for me... You know they feed themselves right before and after a LOW was approaching and coming through.  It was 2 days before the full moon... There were only deer out on one farm I hunted on. they to were not to be found anywhere on the other  4 properties.. Maybe that's what we have to do... take a ride in the daytime toward evening and when you see critters out in majority.. Go hunting that night for coytoes?!!!!!!!  My theory is that it was to close to the full moon period... I really just waste my time when I hunt during the full moon.. If I do ok then it usually when I go by myself and I wear light colored camo.. Dennis kirk book use to stress that during the full moon that you should wear white.. I never wanted the police to think I was the KKK so I wear gray..
