My First Archery Buck

My buck, just as he lay when I found him.

One week ago today, I bagged my first archery buck! And I would have posted something about it sooner, except I've been working like mad ever since I got home from the trip.

Experience played a big part in bagging this seven-point whitetail buck, and that's mentioned in the article... so you might be able to benefit from my experience. Dad always taught me that I could learn something from anyone, no matter how dumb he might be... so maybe you'll be able to learn something from me. ;-)

Review: FireTacks Trail Markers

Firetacks are pretty handy little things, and they beat the standard "reflective thumbtacks" that I've spotted in the woods so many times. Better yet, they can be had in stealthy colors that don't stand out in daylight hours, and you can get away with using one tack (instead of two) for going in and out of your stand...

Bridges Are Forgotten Bass Fishing Hotspots
Bass Caught At A Bridge Captain Mike Gerry says you can always catch bass around bridges and tells why. There are many factors that control bass behavior and most of those factors can be found around bridges.

Captain Mike lists baitfish, cover and current as his top reasons bass are around bridges. I would add structure - not only is there rock cover around bridges, their structure offers a long point running out to the deepest water in the area, and also vertical structure and cover with the pilings under the bridge. Add shade under the bridge on bright, sunny days, too.

Do you fish bridges for bass? Are there any other factors that you think make them good?
