 Re: Damn Shaft
However I do consider myself fortunate and blessed with what I've have killed.

 Re: Damn Shaft
I know the area well. Some of my favorite swamp is on that side of the lake, from dutch bayou on back. It was amazing lookin before the salvinia and fourchette took over out there. Goregous swamp, nothing but duck seed and open burnt cypress swamp. Spent a lot of time out there as a kid, my paw paw was born and raised in bear island (near black lake) and that's where I grew up hunting with him and my dad. There are a few spots in that swamp where there are still railroad wheels sitting out there rotting. My pops has some old railroad stuff at his house he's found out there over the years. Lot of history in that place. God damned shame what it's become. Too many assholes with money on diversion canal and salvinia/fourchette. It's the perfect storm for the death of a swamp.

 Re: Damn Shaft
I've been all over that WMA. I love to hunt there because you never know what you will find. We have a few rail road pieces in our mainline and on the part we lost to the WMA there was a small boiler. By Gramercy there is parts of the rail road and a model T that was converted to a rail car. That's the really cool shit.
Cupped-up x's 1000 on the diversion a-holes and salvinia
We have killed my big deer off of there, it's fucking hard though. It has to be in your blood.

 Re: Damn Shaft
I found out that GD is cutting the shaft threads with a CNC machine now, instead of with a dye. Hopefully that will help with them breaking around the threaded area.

 Re: Damn Shaft
Well my lazy ass finally looked for my prop today. Even though I pass the spot 1000 times during hunting season. The sun was out good today and water was flowing out clear. Armed with my Costa del Mar sunglasses, an aluminum pole and a magnet, it took about 30 seconds...lol
