Just in case some of you are still unaware, Many of us from UBK, and KTBA will be camping at Energy Lake Campground from nov5-nov 11, and hunting in Land Between the Lakes.
Its up to each participant to make their own arrangements for campsites, and fees. Also to remind you need a Ky hunting license/deer tags, plus the LBL permit. The LBL permit is required to deer hunt LBL, but it is a bonus buck tag over you're statewide tag, and an antlerless tag, or 2 antlerless tags.
I was lucky enough last year to kill a buck at home, and 3 days later take another at LBL ! Also you can take turkey,squirrel,coyote, and there is allways plenty of all the above.
I have hunted LBL for years, and am amazed at the wildlife i've been fortunate enough to see. Two years in a row I had bobcat directly under my stand, once it was captured on video while being witnessed by Larry Dalzell, a member of both clubs. I have also had close encounters with coyote,blad eagles,pelicans, and even armadillos !
Please check the LBL website, as some hunting regs are slightly different from statewide. http://lbl.org/
Hope to see a bunch of familiar faces, and meet some new friends !
Fell free to contact me at rkgrider62@yahoo.com if you need further info,
Thanks,
Randy Grider
KTBA president
A hunt in the LBL is on my "bucket list" of hunts to do sometime, as my dad was born in Golden Pond, and the Baker family traces much of it's roots to the area. There is even a family cemetary there, where one of my great-grandfathers, among many other relatives, is buried.
I've made many trips there, since a child, and would love to spend some "real time" in it's woods, someday.
Mark, as i would love to hunt Montanna. We all have "bucket lists" its up to us to complete them.
