Tom I had a bunch of friends and family at the camp the last two weeks for squirrel season in Ville Platte (a yearly ritual).Not one saw a copperhead or anything else to send you but still looking.bowdoc will try it soon on the wife to make sure too afraid to try it on the boarhogs at the camp till I learn.Cannot get leasons in 2010 got other plans but 2011 look out.Cooked a bear stew on a bunch of guys this weekend just right and my bear sausage turned out great also,going to try bacon wraped bear backstraps and deer backstraps next trip with the family.Also brought bear sausage to the L.S.U tailgate party and it was a hit.Kip
