I'm just south of Arlington too. That little lake at the Y of the burn rd. and McKelroy with the cyclone fence? My lake is about a mile south, back in the woods. Whenever those people stock their little lake they swim upstream into my place. I used to have a blind set up and hunted it all the time. But too many people moved there and the *censored* hits the fan if you start to shoot anything. I've got a HERD of racoons that tear everything up and fight outside my bedroom window but being a 2nd shifter I can't get up at 4:30 am. I'm kool with the little black bear, the beavers and otters but I'd get rid of those coons in a heartbeat. If that pond you posted a picture of is off the burn rd. it's full of black crappy. Some big ones too.

have you seen those quiet .22 shells. really all you can hear is the action of the gun. that would make it easy to get rid of those coons

It sounds like it's time to get a new gun.

Is that pond you live on by the power lines?
CB shorts? That the .22 shell you are talking about?

Olsen Lake drains along the power lines. Used to walk in from the power station, down the gas line. Now it's all private, in someone's yard or fenced and posted. At least I can still fish in my yard. Neighbors used to be more friendly to strangers but kids started hanging around, then there was a rash of stolen cars dumped off then people threw litter everywhere. Now everything is gated, fenced and guarded. Cops are always throwing people off there now. Overpopulation is out of control, and doesn't seem to be getting any better.
