What kind of hobbies do you guys and ladies have during the off season? (Not to do with traps.)
My off season is fly tying and looking to make my own fly fishing poles.
I also like to hunt with gun and bow ,almost anything to do with being outdoors.

I also enjoy fly tying and fishing. As my screen name implies, I'm new to the sport and need to practice graceful casting more.

Trapperjohn: I fish as much as I can, for perch-crappie-bluegill-sunfish-silverbass-and bullheads. I like to eat um. (never got the hang of catch and release). Also this year I want to get back into shooting. The rest of the time I am hooked on this trapping thing. OH YES (What Wayne said reminded me) Putting together the N.Y.S.T.A. Convention this year. I think Wayne also forgot ( He's on the convention committee) I think this task will be a big job on its own for us.

I spend a lot of time putting up treestands and cutting new shooting lanes for the archery season. Also will be fishing a lot to stock up on bait for the trapline. But most Of all I'll be playing farmboy and putting in food plots with my brand new Kubota tractor ;D ;D ;D I've never done any of this farmer stuff before so It'll be fun learning all this.

Too many for my free time but here are a few. Hunting, fishing, working my team of horses, cutting wood, highland games. Not too many idle weekends around my place.
