Safe Shooting Zones

One of the most common errors in hunting is swinging on game outside of a "safe zone of fire” – that specific area in which a hunter can safely fire a shot. You should always establish and stick to a safe zone and never shoot outside it.
Be aware of the locations of your companions and the dogs with every step you take. If in doubt, don't take the shot! You can refresh your knowledge of shooting sports safety with this short video.

Fishing Report from TPWD (Nov. 20)

GOOD. Water stained; 65 degrees; 0.02 feet below pool. Striper are fair with a few being caught on live bait. Your best bet is to just put baits in the water and slowly move around with the trolling motor until you find them. Once you find them, try to stay with them but that will be difficult because the fish are moving fast and not staying still. Sand bass are still slow to fair in 20-30 feet of water with live shad or small slabs and jigs or rattle traps. White and silver are good colors. Catfish are still fair to good up the river near Rock Creek Camp. Cut shad is producing good numbers of fish in 10-30 feet of water fished on or near the bottom. Water clarity is steady at 1-8 feet of visibility. Report by TJ Ranft, Ranft Guide Service. Bass are moving up with the lake level rising. Target points and drop-offs with Carolina rigs, chatterbaits, and jigs. Report by JK Outdoors Bass Fishing Guide.
