One of the spots I get to hunt, a little spot out in central Texas sits in the hills of Erath county. It's a nice spot, good elevation changes, neighbors are nice, landowner is both a good friend and person.
In the middle of the tract is a tank, a standard farm pond like thousands of others across the country. It's a place where ducks gather, cows drink and the occasional opossum hangs out in trees near the bank. It appears to be spring fed, at least, I am told that no one has ever seen it completely dry.
However, the pond has no fish.

I'm such a lucky person to be able to hunt every year. I'm not the most experienced hunter out there, no, far from it. I don't have the ability to spend an incredible amount of time each year hunting, but I am grateful for the time I do get, and that time is rapidly approaching again.
This by far, is my most favorite time of year. Even more so that than the last week of December when just about everything is in season. You see, the Universe aligns itself perfectly right about now. For me, the hottest days are over in Texas, even though there are probably another month or two of hot and humid to come, I'm used to it, so it's not such a big issue.
I have to think a higher power aligned football season and hunting season. There just can't be another explanation. Training camp starts for the Dallas Cowboys of whom I was predispositioned to be a fan, ever since the 70's when my father would leave the room after the Redskins beat up on us in what some would consider a fluke game here and there.
