Quail Today


A little cool today here. Only made it to 63º but clear, sunny and a brisk breeze at 20mph. This evening it's 61º light breeze at 5mph & clear.

Russ, you're just in time for a late breakfast, amigo!!

I have the wild rice ready to cook....what time is the quail brunch? Those fat little guys look muy sabroso!
Hey, a dove breast wrapped in bacon and stuffed with a jalepeno pepper would round out this plate very well.




I do what the voices in my tackle box tell me.
