There is no way I could estimate the size of the area. It could be 50 acres, it could be 500 acres
UHHH maybe you should find out what you're hunting in being the "pro" you are?[:-]

Russ Bellar did come out and check on us around 9:00AM. We saw several deer; we even saw a deer go under the fence.
came to check on you? LMAO. Did he bring you coffee and shoot the breeze for a few minutes? Tell you what time the big boy should be coming over the hill?
Sorry about that deer getting under the fence. My dog does that all the time too.

Have I ever broken a law or been put in an awkward position? Of course. Should I be singled out and crucified for hunting at Bellars where hundreds of others have hunted? I don't believe so.
Hundreds of others don't claim to be a "pro" outdoorsman and arent' making a lot of money in the industry. You're a fraud. At least you kind of admit you're a criminal too. Stop with the everyone else did it routine. You sound like a 10 year old.

DD you are the man! I have been trying to get one of the very few federal Easter Bunny tags for about 20 years.

THIS YEAR I GOT IT!

Where can you put me on and how much $$ are we talking? I kind of always envisioned myself doing a self-guided thing but, with your experience I think it would be best if I hired you on as guide. (1 permit in 20 years - I don't want to take a chance!) Do we do the egg hunt BEFORE or AFTER the hunt? I prefer we do it before and call it scouting. I have been told when scouting to not just believe that the Easter Bunny always wears that purple vest because he can be very crafty, sometimes wearing Realtree 3D or Hardwoods.

Oh boy! This is gonna be really great!

Many years ago I saw a TV show with Jimmy Houston fishing spawning small mouth bass on Lake Champlain in Vermont. I recognized many of the places he fished and used some of the same tackle and methods he did to catch bass in subsequent years. Since we are about the same age, I always fantasized about meeting up with him and doing some fishing together on Champlain. I was aware that he sometimes did some hunting on his shows and figured that he was a true sportsman and really liked his show. All that has changed and I see now that all his sporting is done primarily for the camera. He has no ethics and I hope he never fishes Champlain again. Jimmy...If you monitor this site, you no longer are any type of hero to me. When your show comes on I will change channels and refuse to use any of your sponsor’s products. That is my decision and one that might be shared by thousands of similar minded sportsmen. If there were no canned hunting operations allowed anywhere then these atrocities wouldn't have happened. To all sportsmen...boycott all companies who promote canned hunting.

Fella's, at what point do you figure out ...IT'S ENTERTAINMENT.. He's not the guy next to you in the wood's or boat, he's not an idol or hero or anything else except an entertainer who doe's tv show's for a living to give us all something to bitch about in the off season. Let's check out the skeleton's in our own closet before we start condemning someone else. I don't hunt high fences and I don't care what anyone else doe's as long as it's legal. You are more worried about what some tv guy does that nobody takes seriously anyhow" when was the last time you told someone you had to hurry home to watch the JH or hank parker or buckmasters show " get real I'll guarentee that most of us have screwed up and influenced someones life more than JH ever has. I guess nobody is as good a hunter as "WE' are or as ethical or as lawbiding not to mention moral. good lord "we" must be perfect !! P.S. I don't believe I have ever watched a JH show but it can't be any less entertaining than buckmaster's.

Well USA I do not think any of "us" make a living of selling these hunts to others and promoting the products that made the hunt more successful..he is supposed to be a professional ..not us ..

"I don't hunt high fences and I don't care what anyone else doe's as long as it's legal. "

I do agree with you here ... "To each his own" if its legal ..but of course as we have heard Jimmy forgot "DUH" to buy a hunting license...and apparently something was illegal becasue someone went to jail.


"You are more worried about what some tv guy does that nobody takes seriously anyho when was the last time you told someone you had to hurry home to watch the JH or hank parker or buckmasters show " get real I'll guarentee that most of us have screwed up and influenced someones life more than JH ever has."

Well USASOMEONE must be watching it or ole Jimmy would not be making the money he isand livin the high life .... but I got a feeling that might be fixin to change!
