Non-fishing day activity

[SNAP HUNTER]

Since the weather was not cooperating and I was on daddy duty this weekend my buddy and I made 25 pounds of sausage. We made regular with pork only, regular with deer meat added in and we also made jalapeño bacon cheddar. Tried some out and I feel like we did good. Already exploring more flavors for the next go around. Anybody got any suggestions on flavors?

I'll take 5 lbs and I'll trade some of the HOTTEST gps numbers on lake Wylie.
these spots are great ! Plenty of fish on them as I've never pulled any off of these.
THESE ARE VIRGIN BRUSH PILES

I thought I'd be smart and vacuum up all the Sweet Gum balls from the front yard. I did then this morning the grew back as bad as before. I think I'll wait till the end of March to do it again. Dang Sweet Gum Trees, messy all year

I like beer brats. Grady cut those gum ball trees down and put them in the river. They don't last long but at least you can catch a few until then.
