Pheasant Season

Time to gear up for pheasant season.

We look to have good broods here in NE Nebraska but less hunting available every year due to less CRP and more row crop. These last 5-7 dry years have all but eliminated swales, fencelines, ponds, marshy areas and so forth up here around me.

Good luck and be safe.

Remember – when it’s over 50 degrees be extra extra careful with your dogs! It’s a good idea to carry superglue with you for those cuts they invariably get too.

Gotta get my old lund painted and my new popup blind on. By the looks of ponds along I 29 north into Canada the ducks may be a comin’ a little better this year.

I usually only chase phesants a couple of times a year, but I’m hoping to get out a lot more this year.

Great numbers of birds in SW NE!!

We used to go down to Wausau every year, but now there is very little to hunt. What a shame, but I suppose the farmer has to make a living somehow.

Good to hear Zach!

We’ve got a lot of leasing going on in my area, you’re right Dan about making a living. Corn is going up up up right now which really makes it go in.

With ethanol and ag business interests going after Congress full-bore I think CRP is in great great jeapordy.

CRP keeps corn higher and less chem’s to spray, seed to plant, equipment to buy.

I sure hope Cellulosic Ethanol gets a break-thru. I read the other day that the Japanese??? maybe have come up with a super organism that will convert switchgrass and the like more efficiently than even dreamed a few months ago.

Goldman Sachs has invested in cellulose ethanol, they are rarely wrong on emerging technologies. (Ok, I’m not an investment guy, but I remember reading that!)
