Not much today except an oil lamp wick turner near an old barn foundation and a crab claw and fly line package down by the stream. My big prize for the hunt however was an entire deer skeleton. The skull was missing but a quick scan of the area revealed it about 30 feet away :happy3:. It is a nice 7 pointer which I returned later to bring the skull home with me. I left the rest of the bones behind.

Thanks for looking!
Nick

It ain't gonna happen. All you're doing is putting out a huge rack for the the hot young doe deer to go crazy for. Party time.

Here's a close up with the manufacturer's markings on the wick turner.
