BOW SEASON IS IN AS YOU ALL KNOW. I HAVE BEEN HANGING OUT AT THE TARBORO LEASE GLENN W AND I HAVE , CRIBBIN' OUT AT THE OL FARM HOUSE WITH NO TV NO INTERENT ....USING RUST TWINGED WELL WATER TO SHOWER IN AND SOMETIMES I GET HALF ASS CELL SERVICE....

IT'S BEEN SWEET NONETHELESS.......DEER STANDS HAVE BEEN RELOCATED TO BETTER TRAILS...TRAIL CAMS ARE IN PLACE....400 LBS OF CORN IS BEIING ANIHALATED AS I KEY THIS LORE.....MY BROTHER AND CHARLEY JENKINS FLY INTO CAROLINA FROM UTAH ON MONDAY NIGHT AND TUESDAY MORNING WE CLIMB TO 18 FT.....QUIET FRANKLY I AM ON CLOUD NINE........ WE PLAN ON HUNTING THE FIRST 3 DAYS ....THEN GO OFFSHORE ON THE RUN-OFF ON THE 4TH....

I AM STOKED!

MID DAY ACTION AT THE LEASE HAS BEEN A TREAT SO FAR.....NORMALLY, IT IS WAY TOO HOT TO HUNT OR SCOUT.......SO I ADAPT......KEEP IN MIND OUR LAND IS BORDERED ON ONE SIDE OF THE 200 ACRE SQUARE BY THE TAR RIVER.....THERE, MY LATEST BOXFUN HAS BEEN SNORKELING THE TAR RIVER...THAT'S RIGHT! .....EVER WONDER WHAT IS "DOWN THERE?" UHHH??? WELL I WENT FOR A LOOK....AND ALL I CAN SAY IS WOW......THE TAR IS A CLEAR BEAUTIFUL SLOW MOVING PIECE OF WATER THAT IS STILL SO PRIMITIVE....RECENTLY AN 1800'S RIVER SHIP WAS DISCOVERED 3 MILES DOWNSTREAM FROM WHERE I AM ABOUT TO FILM....RAINFALL HAS BEEN SCARCE AND THE WATERTABLE IS LOW RIGHT NOW...BREAM LARGEMOUTH , CATS, CARP GARFISH AND STRIPER FIND HOME IN THIS WATERS...

SO TODAY....I TRY TO BRING YOU ...THE TAR RIVER FROM DOWNUNDA'....NOW THIS AIN'T NO JAQUES COUSTEAU STUFF ...HELL NO.......BUT IT IS THE BEST I CAN DO WITH A $150 STEALTH VIDEO CAMERA THAT SUBMERGES AND REMAINS DRY TO 20FT.....SUPPOSEDLY

WE SHALL CALL THIS CAMERA THE BAMBOOCAM.....I WILL ATTACH THE CAM TO AN 18 FOOT FRESH CUT PIECE OF HOLLOW YET CHAMBERED FISHING POLE........ I HOPE TO BRING BAMBOOCAM TO YOUR LITTLE SCREEN AS OFTEN AS I CAN UNTIL I CAN'T TAKE THE COLD WATER ANYMORE....RIGHT NOW IT IS AWESOME.

NOW THIS COMING SUNDAY, THIS SAME CAM WILL BE CALLED THE "GAFFCAM"

TAKE NOTE AT THE SMASHED UP MOUTH ON THE LARGEMOUTH BASS....WHAT THE HECK HAPPENED TO THIS DUDE?

Can't wait to see the gaffcam

Nice!! Got to love those up close and personals with the bass. He looked a little on the hungry side!! You need to feed him something he wanted to eat the camera..........Mark

[Hatterized]

is it BoxLand USA...or the underwater WORLD ACCORDING TO GARP i mean BOX......

cool stuff.....never know what you will find underwater..... maybe you find the "mother lode"....
had a neighbor whose father found a Civil War cannon underwater on a river outside of Frederick, MD.....and he was using sometype of homemade water-resistant vid camera that he jury rigged....

these days he has a sophisticated underwater cam setup that he uses to treasure hunt just like people do on the beach with metal detectors.....

keep the cam rollin and a gaffcam....... !!!

Gotta check this out at the library tommorow. Give me a shout if you guys want to grab lunch/dinner after the airport pick up.

Pretty neat stuff there Marty

[Flatdog]

Basics love it next time use a crow quill or turkey as your bobber
a lot more subtle
Or go mad and buy state of the art.........Shimano 52 ft pole and reach the other side and see what is on "THE OTHER SIDE"
