Tobaggans, tubes,  round saucers, hot choc, marshmallows, hot dogs, cold fingers, a Steep hill and a fire. Boxing day at Bergs happens again with many friends, cousins young and old, Usually the Yamaha bravo pulls us up the hill, and hauls the goodies to the fire and hauls us back to the house but while on the hill we have a great time. Everyone goes down the hill atleast once. We were worried there would not be enough snow but on Xmas eve we got a over 6 inches making conditions great.

Judy, Connie her daughter and Vincent her grandson play a game of Sequence after Christmas supper. Vincent is the winner two games out of 3.

 

 

Tim, Toms brother does a good job of removing bones but it is kind of hot doing this near the stove

 

Tom pulls a Pike from the water you can keep one over 27 and it was 29 inches.  We donot usually keep Pike as Walleye is the  specialty but we have a friend looking for a couple of pikes. We do a lot of fishing over the winter a little eating and supply many shut ins and friends with some great eating.

Walleye for supper tonite, just 1/2 hour in the shack and the first one jumps from the hole on MY hook.  With a slot limit of 12-18 in we have some good eating filets.

Tom has been busy during Dec working on a new Ice fishing shack. 8×12 with removable wheels, a bench to sleep on, wood stove, shelf for warmer upper drinks, 4 holes for walleye to jump out of and now the ice is over 8 inches thick he is off to Lake of the Prairies to catch some walleye spend some time with his feet up and relax.

 

 

I had sent out a Greetings letter to our hunters with many replys and talked to many  of our good friends. Thankyou for the replys it is great to hear from you.

 

Big Grass again had a great year of safe hunting with many great trophies and good stories.  It is a pleasure to meet and get to know everyone who spent time in camp.

 

We would like to with our clients, friends and anyone who visits our site a Very Merry Xmas and Prosperous New Year to Come. May you have Safe hunting and travelling over the holidays and in the upcoming year.

 

May God Bless and Be Safe where ever you are.

 

Tom and Judy,

Bud, Jasmine, Fudge and Bailey, the dogs

Darrold left bear camp Sept 5 pumped to harvest an elk with his bow he had been scouting all summer in Colorado. After many attempts second last day of the season  he took this bull scoring 356 with his Rifle. And this was the small one, I am sure not many would pass on this one. Way to go Darrold.

Jack and Kaitlyn Randall here bag a few ducks with their Dad Randy. Randy sent me a couple other photos and you can see why Jason F. would be an influence on Jack and Kaitlyn . I cannot imagine how many shells these 2 use up in an afternoon in the field. Way to go kids.
