Cast is in the trucks and rolling.....

The weather is a crisp 27 degrees, the sun is just above the horizon, and not a cloud in the sky....wind is still as a church mouse

Whip is out in front of the cast about 200 yards according to Odell......

He has barked a couple times, but no tree call yet.

Time is running on Dexter.

Looks like the son is going to show "dad" how to do it early on.....

Lets see if youthful excitement will carry the day over wisdom....

Cast is lead a short ways and re-cast....the are hunting again.

Field Reporter Allen Gingerich reports that maybe the dogs have taken a half time break....it's been three minutes since they turned loose and not a bark.

Sounds like they are in a beautiful place. Paved roads, around a lake, there are cabins all around....very peaceful

The judge has told the cast that if they don't open soon, he is going to scratch them.....says they are supposed to be squirrel dogs!

Both dogs come zipping past the cast, and across the road.....

Guess they are going to try the other side of the road.

Allen reports they are in nice tall hardwoods, with some pine and cedar scattered throughout.
