A Note From Our CEO Many urbanites look forward to wildflowers and the warming season of Spring, but as hunters and outdoorsmen, we anxiously await the Fall. Changing leaves, cooler mornings and longer shadows have a way of bringing out a joyous energy in people and wildlife alike. It’s the season when millions of migrating waterfowl, Mourning dove and songbirds make their journey south ahead of cold fronts. Necks of whitetail and mule deer bucks swell as they shed their velvet, Pronghorn gather in bunches, and a few of us make our annual trip west to pursue bugling bull elk. This Summer was particularly hot across much of the south, with record numbers of days over 100 degrees and an unprecedented drought across much of our state. That, combined with rising interest rates has created some headwind for landowners, buyers and sellers in the first three quarters of 2023. Fortunately September and October have brought much needed rains to much of the state, and we have seen an uptick in real estate activity with some tremendous new ranches coming to market at prices not recently seen. This is a busy season for us across that state, and our team is working overtime to continue to outpace the market. In this “Fall Hunting Issue” of the Landowner Insider you’ll find new sections, including two exclusive hunting articles, a highlight of the Triple C Ranch Resort, client success stories, informative articles from our partners, and more listing features than before. I want to personally thank you for reading this Landowner Insider Magazine. Be sure to also subscribe to our weekly Land Broker Insider Podcast and our monthly newsletter.

CLIENT SUCCESS
The Driscoll Pasture at Ruby Ranch The Driscoll Pasture of the Ruby Ranch, an expansive and private 476+- acre ranch, located just west of Buda, offered its next owners unmatched affordability and an unparalleled legacy. This ranch will be used for agriculture, hunting, and conservation—to continue on the intent of the owners of the land. In 2014, the Ruby’s, the sellers of the Driscoll Pasture, elected to honor their family ranching heritage and protect the values of the ranch, by placing it in a conservation easement with the Hill Country Conservancy. The purpose of the conservation easement is to protect the health of the recharge features into the Barton Springs portion of the Edwards Aquifer. In doing so, the easement ensures the ranch will be open space for agriculture, wildlife and recreation in perpetuity. This parcel was a unique opportunity for the buyer—a rare asset in Hayes county at an affordable price. The pasture was “near and dear” to the seller, and they wanted the future owner to also be part of the legacy created by
14
the conservation easement and be committed to maintaining ranching, hunting, enjoying wildlife, and managing the land for the benefit of habits that remain just as they had. The ranch, bordered by nearly 650 acres of additional conservation lands, is a large retreat for wildlife with white-tailed deer, Rio Grande turkey, numerous resident and migratory songbirds and game birds, falcons, small mammals, and the occasional Bob White quail. Habitat on the ranch is typical for this ecoregion with large live oaks, elms and mixed natives being the predominant tree species. Ashe juniper and mesquite are present on the ranch. The purchasers are proud to continue the legacy and stewardship of this historic hill country ranch.

Essential 1031 Exchange Reminders for 2023 School is back in session and autumn has arrived. It’s a perfect time to review some key 1031 Exchange reminders: 1. 1031 is not a tax loophole. Section 1031 has been in the tax code for almost a century as a recognized method to defer taxes. 2. 1031 Exchanges allow taxpayers to defer federal capital gains tax, most state taxes, tax on unrecognized gain due to depreciation, and the net investment income tax imposed by the Affordable Health Care Act. 3. Does a 1031 Exchange make sense for you? Do a quick 5 Point Analysis. 4. There are many non-tax reasons to exchange. 1031 Exchanges can be used to diversify or consolidate portfolios, to increase cash flow, reduce operating expenses, increase appreciation potential, obtain less management intensive property, relocate an investment and exchange for a property that can be used in the taxpayer’s business, and even as an estate planning tool.
8. Exchanges between related parties are permitted, however, specific rules must be followed. 9. Partnerships and LLCs can utilize 1031 Exchanges. 10. Reverse Exchanges, where an Exchanger buys first and sells second, may give you the advantage to maximize your tax deferral. These are more expensive and complex than “regular” exchanges but often are useful when the new property needs to be purchased before the sale of the old property. 11. Unless taxpayers are “swapping real estate” without any money being transferred, a Qualified Intermediary (QI), like IPX1031, is required. A QI provides documentation, secures the taxpayer’s funds during the exchange period, and coordinates with the settlement agents.
5. As a general rule, to fully defer the payment of taxes, taxpayers should purchase Replacement Property with a value equal to or greater than the property that is being sold (Relinquished Property), reinvest all net proceeds from the Relinquished Property sale, and replace the value of any debt on the Relinquished Property that was paid off. This can be achieved by placing an equal amount of debt on the Replacement Property, adding additional cash (from outside of the exchange), or a combination of both. If the taxpayer purchases property of lesser value, doesn’t reinvest all the net proceeds, or fails to replace all of the value of the debt the difference is considered taxable boot and the exchange becomes a Partial Exchange with a partial tax deferral.
12. QIs are not regulated by the federal government nor by most state governments. Therefore, it is essential that taxpayers ascertain the competency of and security provided by a potential QI.
6. 1031 Exchanges follow strict time limits. Once the Relinquished Property (old investment property) is sold, taxpayers have a total of 180 days to acquire Replacement Property (exchange period). In addition, the taxpayer must identify potential Replacement Properties within the first 45 days of that 180-day period.
Please reach out to one of your local IPX1031 experts to discuss the possibility and feasibility of your or your client’s next 1031 Exchange.
Carl Pikus
16
7. To avoid having a taxable event, taxpayers may not have actual or constructive receipt of the proceeds from their Relinquished Property(s) sale. A 1031 Exchange must be set up prior to the transfer of the Relinquished Property. This means you cannot start an exchange after you’ve already sold your property.
AVP, Account Executive TF 888.337.1031 ext.8 Mobile 512.956.0908 carl.pikus@ipx1031.com www.ipx1031.com/pikus
13. QIs like IPX1031 cannot give specific advice – only information. Always seek advice from your financial planner, tax attorney and CPA relating to your specific tax and investment goals and situation. 14. Start with the right QI. Choose one (like IPX1031) that has extensive experience, attorneys, CPAs and 1031 professionals on staff, provides financial security and insurance, and that has safeguards in place to protect exchange funds.
IPX1031. The best choice for your 1031. For more info: www.ipx1031.com/top-1031-refreshers/ ©2023 Investment Property Exchange Services, Inc.

PROFILE
Riding Bears & Black Powder Bulls I remember as a kid sitting in my dad’s lap, listening to stories of when he was younger, hunting and guiding for elk and mule deer in New Mexico. Some of his stories were funny, like the time he got so excited over a big buck, that he threw his bullets on the ground and tried to load his rifle by shoving a glove into the chamber. Others were embellished, like the time his pack horses got away, so he roped a bear and rode it back to camp in a blizzard. But most of them were stories of family and friends hunting in beautiful country. Those are the stories that held my imagination as a child, and they are some of my kid’s favorite stories that I repeat to them at bedtime over and over today. Although we grew up hunting and fishing nonstop around Texas, it wasn’t until my midtwenties that I finally got out west to hunt for elk. Like most, I read the western hunting magazines, did what research I could, bought over-the-counter tags and struggled to find elk early on. I’ve hunted elk every year since, information is more available to non-residents, and I’d like to think I’ve become a more consistent western hunter over these years. My perspective on hunting started to change a few years ago as my son, Maddox (now eight) started to take interest. I remember in 2020 my friend, Scott and I were about 10 miles deep in the Weminuche wilderness north of Pagosa Springs, Colorado. That country is beautiful and we were on elk, but I was not enjoying anything about it. I didn’t really want to kill a bull. I felt like God was telling me this season of adventure hunts without my kids, had 18
My perspective on hunting started to change a few years ago as my son, Maddox started to take interest. come to a close. It was clear that He was taking some of the desire for remote solo adventure from me. If Maddox wasn’t with me, I didn’t care to be there either. I hiked off the mountain that day, and promised Maddox that I was never again going without him. You see, when my brother and I were about seven my dad stopped going to the mountains every year, and he stopped tournament fishing so that he could focus on spending time with my brother and me. He did the hunts and fishing trips that we could do. I know this had to be a hard decision for him, but l’m forever thankful that he chose to spend time with us in the outdoors. For this reason, he’s still my best friend and my favorite person to hunt with. The gift of presence is the legacy I hope to leave with my children, but I can’t expect them to want to hunt with me when they get older if I don’t involve them when they’re young. Four years ago, Dad and I enjoyed a bucket list aoudad sheep hunt in West Texas. On that hunt we agreed the dream bucket list hunt would be an elk hunt together, although I don’t think either one of us actually believed it would happen. But this year it did, when by a crazy series of events, we drew muzzleloader elk tags in one of the best units in New Mexico. Odds
of drawing this tag as a nonresident are less than one percent, so we were beyond excited to say the least. Then, my heart sank and when I got a call that dad was being rushed to the ER for a heart attack, caused by a reaction to a COVID-19 treatment. Praise God he recovered quickly, but our dream elk hunt was beginning to seem like just that... nothing more than a dream. That motivated dad more than anything to get into shape. He started eating more of what he should, drinking less of what he shouldn’t, and by October he had lost 30 lbs preparing for the hunt. Just thinking about chasing elk in the mountains has a strange way of keeping you healthier and in shape. Maddox and I pulled up to our camp spot in the Lincoln National Forest midday on October 13th. Dad had been scouting for five days, and tears filled all of our eyes when I stepped out of the truck to give him a big hug. We were finally in elk camp together! Dad’s like-brother, Lee Ezell (AKA “Uncle Lee”) would be joining us in camp as well, which I was excited about. I’ve known, Lee my entire life, and besides being a very accomplished elk hunter, he was a regular character in many of dad’s old hunting tales, so his presence in our story was only fitting. I love Lee, and his companionship and energy was a welcome addition to camp. Lee pulled up as we were setting up tents, we all hugged, cried a little more, and prayed God’s blessing over the week to come. What followed were three days of elk hunting that would rival anywhere in the country. I won’t go into the play-by-play details of our hunt here, although I’d love
to share the full story with you sometime. It’s a good one, complete with bugle fests, lots of bulls, and the pieces coming together as if we’d drawn it up. But I think too many times we allow God’s majestic creativity, the wildness of the landscape, resilience of the animals that call the mountains home, and fellowship with friends and family to be overshadowed by the pressure of the hunt or the size of the kill. Sure, we all wanted to kill the biggest bull, but it would seem too cheap to measure the success of this week in inches and score alone. The real destination is found when we push ourselves farther, only to find ourselves closer to the people we love the most. As uncontrollable and unforgiving as the mountains can be, it’s ironic that they have a unique way of serving as a controlled environment, forcing me to focus on the present. Conversations go deeper, thoughts become clearer, and bonds grow stronger. As for the bulls, God blessed dad with a
beautiful 7 × 7 bull on opening morning. He had big whale-tails, and lots of character. We were all there for the hike in, the 435 yard shot, emotion filled recovery, and pack out. It was perfect, and filled with happy tears. The Lord showered us with favor again on day three, when after hiking 8.5 miles in the cold fog and rain, Lee and I found a huge bull on our descent back into camp. The fog lifted for a second, giving me a shot at 445 yards. No way was I going to recover this bull without my dad and my son being with me, so we headed down to camp and the four of us went back up the mountain after dinner to recover my bull together. He was bigger than we thought, truly a once in a lifetime public land, giant!
This dream would not have been possible without access to our nation’s public lands. These beautifully expansive and wild places that are held in public trust for you and I to enjoy. I have to thank our good friends, Terry W. and Lane B. for invaluable scouting help. Special thanks to uncle Lee for managing camp, cooking, packing heavy loads, and for being a part of our family. And most of all, to my dad for always being present as a father. For including me in his passion for hunting at a young age, for being consistent as a parent, and modeling how a godly father should lead his family.
While we processed my bull in the misty darkness next to a mountainside fire of ocotillo and juniper, I couldn’t help but wish that time would stop. Tomorrow we would be breaking camp, and headed back to the realities and busyness of career goals, tax planning and budgets. But for now, none of that mattered, and I wished I could stay in that moment. I was living the hunting story that I hope my kids will tell their children some day. About the time Grumpy (dad’s grandpa nickname) and I killed two big bull elk in New Mexico. About falling asleep on my backpack at midnight, beside the fire while Uncle Lee quartered the bull on that steep mountainside. Or how we laughed and wished we could find that old bear that Grumpy claims to have tamed back in the early 80s, so he could carry this heavy meat off the mountain for us. These are the memories that I pray will outlast dad and me, and live on through Maddox and Caroline’s children.
Go get ‘em. Kasey
Heck, will these wild and untamed places for chasing elk still exist for my grandkids to experience firsthand? Or will “hunting” be a virtual activity then? I can’t imagine elk camp without the campfire smoke, sore legs, and the smell of clean mountain air. Will these old stories be all they have? All I know is that we all have a limited number of hunting season in our lives, and I intend to make the most of them! 20
Love you, dad. You set the bar high.

Chronic Wasting Disease in Texas
UNPACKING THE FACTS AND THE FICTION
Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD) has been a hot-button issue in Texas, sparking debates among deer-hunting enthusiasts, landowners, wildlife biologists, and policymakers. With varying opinions and conflicting data, it’s crucial to sift through the noise. This article aims to provide a balanced, factual look at CWD, drawing insights from a letter by the Texas Parks and Wildlife commissioner and a detailed thesis by Taylor Schmidt, a student at Regents School of Austin.
Texas Parks and Wildlife has been proactive in implementing monitoring and control measures to contain CWD. They argue that these steps are vital for the sustainability of the deer breeding industry in Texas. However, critics, including Taylor Schmidt, question the rationale behind these measures. They ask why so much effort and financial resources are being allocated to control a disease that some consider insignificant to the deer hunting industry. Is there a hidden agenda or is it a case of being better safe than sorry?
CWD is a transmissible spongiform encephalopathy (TSE) affecting deer, elk, moose, and other cervids. It’s a degenerative disease that affects the central nervous system, causing symptoms like weight loss, abnormal behavior, and eventually leading to death. Recent research has thrown a curve ball into the mix. Western blotting techniques have revealed that the molecular profiles of CWD and scrapie, a similar TSE affecting sheep and goats, are virtually indistinguishable. This has led some to question whether CWD is just scrapie manifesting in deer.
The debate surrounding CWD is far from over. The deer industry in Texas is valued at approximately $4 billion. Any disease that threatens this industry could have farreaching economic implications, affecting not just hunters but also landowners and local businesses. While some, backed by recent scientific discoveries, argue that it’s a non-issue akin to scrapie in sheep, others stress the need for stringent control measures to protect both the deer population and the multi-billion-dollar hunting industry. As research continues to evolve, a clearer understanding of CWD and its actual impact on wildlife and human activities in Texas is eagerly awaited.
The media has been quick to sensationalize CWD, often referring to it as leading to an ‘outbreak’ of zombie deer. This narrative has fueled public fear and led to the implementation of stringent policies. Taylor Schmidt’s thesis provides a different perspective. According to her research, Texans consume about 15 million pounds of deer meat annually, with zero reported cases of CWD affecting human health. 25

THE CUNNINGHAM SISTERS
Trailblazers of the North American Sheep Grand Slam In the rugged terrains of North America, where the air is thin and the challenges are many, two young sisters from Dripping Springs, Texas, have etched their names into hunting folklore. Meet Cami and Stormy Cunningham, the prodigious duo who’ve not just embraced but mastered the art of sheep hunting, a sport that’s as demanding as it is rewarding. On August 30, Cami Cunningham became the youngest female and the second youngest hunter ever to complete the North American Sheep Grand Slam. At just 13, she’s harvested four different North American sheep species—the desert bighorn, the Dall, the Rocky Mountain bighorn, and the Stone. Not far behind is her 10-year-old sister, Stormy, who’s already bagged her first Dall sheep. 28
A Family Affair The Cunninghams are no strangers to the hunting world. Their father, Russell, instilled in them a love for the sport from a young age. “I’ve been planning this hunt with my daughters for 37 years,” says Russell, who himself was introduced to Dall sheep hunting in Alaska by his father at the age of 10. The tradition has come full circle, with both Cami and Stormy embarking on their first Dall sheep hunts at the same age. Cami kicked off her Grand Slam campaign in West Texas, tagging a 171-inch desert bighorn ram just before her 10th birthday. She later had a successful Dall sheep hunt in Alaska, where she also tagged a caribou and took down a grizzly bear with a 712yard shot. Stormy’s first Alaskan sheep hunt
demanded 46 miles of hiking in less than a week and culminated with a 167-inch, perfectly symmetrical ram.
ensuring that the Cunningham legacy of hunting prowess will continue for generations to come.
Completing a Grand Slam is no small feat, both physically and financially. The tags, travel, gear, and outfitter expenses can run into hundreds of thousands of dollars. But for the Cunninghams, it’s a lifelong commitment and a testament to their perseverance. Both sisters plan on taking their own 10-year-old kids hunting for Dall sheep in Alaska when the time comes,
When they’re not hunting, the sisters are team roping, performing music together, training their goats for 4H competitions, and cheerleading. “We’re just trying to motivate and inspire youth, especially young women, that it’s okay to go hunting with dad, it’s okay to go hunting with mom,” says Russell. The Cunningham sisters are not just hunters; they’re trailblazers, setting a new standard for what’s possible in the world of sport hunting. Their story is one of family, perseverance, and the unyielding pursuit of excellence. And it’s far from over.

PROFILE
Triple C Ranch How has your entertainment career in the music industry translated into operating a hunting ranch? From a young age we have always enjoyed entertaining! From company crawfish boils in the spring, to large scale clay shoots in the fall, or just weekend nights at home tossing washers with friends and family. In the mid 1980’s I began chasing a music career gigging multiple shows a week for 15 years. We hosted a benefit concert for several years called “Stars, Pars and Guitars,” with proceeds benefiting multiple area charities, and then the purchase of music venue, River Road Icehouse, in New Braunfels where we entertained crowds from a few hundred to a few thousand! One may say my love for entertaining started on the stage, but it didn’t stop there. Fast forward to present times, we have been able to apply 35 years of amateur and professional entertaining to our ranch and hunting operation, established in 2017, through the realization that most people just want to step off of this crazy spinning world and have fun if only for a few days! Our primary product is the experience, secondarily it’s the hunting! From the “Welcome” happy hour to the manicured grounds, safari style “loops”, thoughtful decor, place settings, and amazing chef prepared meals, to poolside or fireside cocktails! If our guests opt to sleep through a morning hunt and enjoy Stef’s famous signature Bloody Mary, or skip an afternoon hunt to sit on the lodge porch and watch the sunset and yard deer, then we have done our job as entertainers…sometimes the hunting is just a bi-product.
30
We are honored that folks choose us and our ranch, and frankly sometimes quite surprised considering the options out there these days. We feel very passionate and a great obligation to make sure our guest’s experience is the best it can be! What have you and Stef learned while traveling to destinations that you have applied and implemented at Triple C? Stef and I have been blessed with travel to many corners of the world! East Coast, West Coast, Gulf Coast, Europe, Caribbean, Mexico, South America, Napa, and the mountains. Hunting, fishing, vacationing, exploring, and “R&D” trips to experience and learn something new has put a lot of wisdom in our belts. We always bring back new ideas upon experiencing expert hospitality, indulging in top notch cuisines, and unique take-aways to implement in our menus, presentations, equipment, etc…“R&D” trips are a great excuse to see new places!
How did you settle on Cold B’Ville, TX? Beeville checked all the boxes!! It is pretty much right in the center of our main interests in Texas. Within an easy 1–3-hour drive to most all our frequent destinations. An hour to Rockport where we hailed our Sportfish operation, 3 hours to my office in Baytown area, couple hours to my youngest daughter’s house in New Braunfels, and an hour to Corpus airport that takes us to destinations around the world! We love the fact we can be sitting on a dock at the coast and within an hour be riding around looking at 200” deer! Beeville also offers much of what we like about Texas terrain. Granted we do not have the beautiful vista views that the Hill Country and West Texas are famous for, but we do have some rolling hills and plenty of live oak, mesquite, prickly pear and grass. What makes Triple C unique? The TCR is nested on the northern edge of the Coastal Bend and is home to 650 high fenced acres of 40% native coastal prairie grasses and 60% south Texas brush, live oaks, bull mesquite, wild persimmon, and mountain laurel. The ranch is well equipped for both rifle and bow hunting as well as maintaining and growing our trophy herd of whitetail and
exotics. The prairie pastures are groomed and maintained for both wild and release quail hunting. Water is in abundance throughout with both above ground pilas and earthen tanks fed by a 10hp irrigation well. We have a skeet and trap range,10 station sporting clay course, 12 station 3D bow target course, five-acre bass tank, pickleball court, swimming pool and hot tub. Our activities range from hunting, fishing, safari style ‘loops” to just porch sitting and relaxing! What different packages do you offer? With our 7,000 square foot lodge and over 4,000 square feet of various cabins scattered around the ranch we can tailor an experience for any size group up to approximately 30 people. The main lodge has five bedrooms and a large show kitchen with an adjoined chef pantry/kitchen, ample seating, game room, bar, large porch with grill area, pool and hot tub. The five cabins range from single occupancy to accommodating up to six guests. We have two separate skinning areas with walk-in coolers in the event we have multiple groups enjoying the ranch at the same time. We cater primarily to corporate groups versus individual smaller groups. Our most frequent groups are quail hunters followed by trophy 31
whitetail and exotic hunters and an occasional corporate retreat or family reunion. Our packages typically include 2 nights/3 days of all-inclusive hunting with full chef and bar service. However, we have the flexibility to customize any package to fit any and all group needs. Our whitetail herd is split into two pastures. TCR South has a mixture of native and genetic whitetails ranging from smaller management bucks to 150-170 class. The South pasture also has a variety of other species to include sika, oryx, zebra, fallow, axis, black buck, addax, longhorn and one llama! We use this pasture for friend and family hunting as well as safari style photo rides, we call “loops”. TCR North is a full genetic whitetail herd from various breeders throughout Texas. The herd is three years old with mature bucks 32
ranging from 180” to over 300”. The North pasture also hosts an exotic herd to include trophy axis, black buck, sika, fallow, and an occasional aoudad sighting! Our quail hunting program spans across both pastures where we groom and maintain our fields and habitat continuously. We have a healthy population of wild birds but not enough to maintain an annual schedule. Therefore, we release approximately 30005000 fly-pen raised quail for our liberated hunts. Our top assistants on the hunts includes German Shorthaired Pointers, Labs and Cocker Spaniels. What would you say is the most overlooked challenge for people wanting to get into the hunting business? I believe this will differ greatly depending upon if the property is high fenced or low fenced. Speaking from my experience with our high fenced ranch purchasing the property is
the easy part…maintaining and operating a hunting operation is not for the faint of heart. A confined herd creates many challenges. Constant fence maintenance, robust feed and water program, mass worming program, predator control, unexplained mortality and herd restocking. Catering to corporate groups is easier than marketing to the public but maintaining a business development presence takes a good bit of time and effort. Ever evolving equipment and facility maintenance and upgrades along with full and part time staff adds to the puzzle.
Texas? Coastal? What is the target species? I sometime joke that we messed up and bought about 20 miles to far to the east because the dove seem to always fly in George West! It’s one thing to love the sport of hunting, but it’s important to be as equally passionate about the actual operations behind running a working hunting property. It can, and will, seem like a job from time to time! But for Stef and I, we feel we own a lifestyle asset that we are able to share with our growing family, friends and clients. For us, the reward and enjoyment completely outweighs the sweat and effort that goes into maintaining our ranch.
What would you tell someone are the top factors to consider when looking for a hunting property? Know clearly in advance what type of property and preferred location you are looking for and what your end goal is. High fence? Low fence? Piney woods? Hill country? West

THE GRANZIN’S
From Barbecue Pit to Blissful Ranch Retreat In the heart of New Braunfels, Texas, Miles and Susan Granzin, the culinary maestros behind Granzin’s Barbecue, share a captivating tale of transformation—from the smoky allure of barbecue to the tranquil embrace of their cherished ranch. Their narrative unfolds in a spirited conversation, revealing insights into their community ties, the thrill of hunting, and the instrumental role played by Mock Ranches in turning their ranch dreams into a living reality.
A Culinary Beginning “Granzin’s Barbecue is not just about food; it’s a celebration of community and culinary passion,” reflects Miles as they approach 34
the milestone of 40 years in the business. Susan adds, “Our roots are diverse, but our commitment to the community remains constant.”
A Passion for Hunting “Hunting was the spark that ignited our shared adventure,” Susan fondly recalls. “From deer leases to creating memories with friends, it was a journey that spoke to our shared love for the outdoors.”
The Search for a Ranch In their quest for a personal hunting paradise, Miles energetically explored potential ranches. Susan shares, “Little did I know how
tirelessly he was shopping online. John Henry became our beacon when the search became challenging.”
Falling in Love with the Ranch “The moment we entered the gates, the green expanse and grazing cattle stole our hearts,” Susan reminisces. “Despite the ranch house needing attention, Miles saw the potential, dedicating himself to its transformation into a family haven.”
Life at the Ranch “Two years later, our ranch is not just a property; it’s a canvas for family memories,” Susan beams. “Our grandson’s joy as he kicks the tires of a John Deere tractor is a testament to the legacy we’re building.”
The Role of Mock Ranches “Mock Ranches and John Henry made our dream a reality,” expresses Susan with gratitude. “Their expertise and commitment ensured a smooth journey from dream to ownership. It’s more than a transaction; it’s a relationship we cherish.”

Navigating Private Waters When it comes to showcasing and managing ranches for potential clients, the conversation often veers into the realm of private waters, especially those catering to fishing enthusiasts. While many landowners possess intuitive knowledge about managing deer, wildlife, and cattle, fisheries management may seem like uncharted territory. In this article, we delve into the considerations and stepwise process involved in effective fisheries management, drawing insights from a conversation with an expert, Steven.
Survey Process: Understanding the Ecosystem
With the goal in mind, the next step involves a comprehensive survey of the water body. This includes mapping the lake to understand its topography, surface acreage, and water volume. Assessing carrying capacity, determining the types of forage required for the targeted fish species, and evaluating the existing predator-prey balance are crucial aspects of this stage. Harvest regulations and habitat considerations are also key components of the survey process.
Defining Goals: The Foundation of Fisheries Management The Role of Habitat: The first crucial step in fisheries management, Manipulating the Environment according to Steven, is to define a clear goal. Before embarking on any management strategy, it’s essential to decide the purpose of the fishery. Is it intended for recreational fishing, trophy bass development, or perhaps a family-friendly environment for kids to enjoy consistent catches? Defining this goal sets the stage for subsequent decisions in the management process. 36
Habitat plays a pivotal role in fisheries management. Whether aiming for a quality largemouth bass fishery or a crappie haven, the type of habitat is crucial. Ambush predators like largemouth bass prefer shoreline-based habitat, while crappies thrive in denser structures in deep waters. Steven emphasizes that controlling vegetation is often the wildcard
in fisheries management, and understanding water clarity, color, and topography are essential for effective control.
Financial Responsibilities: Estimating Costs
Managing private waters comes with financial responsibilities, and Steven suggests a pragmatic approach to estimating costs. Surface acreage becomes the anchor for all decisions, from purchasing forage fish to applying herbicides. Risks associated with vegetation growth depend on factors like lake depth and water temperature. Steven advises potential fishery managers to budget Steven Bardin around $2,000 per acre per year for selfOWNER/FISHERIES BIOLOGIST management and around $3,500 to $4,000 Steven obtained his bachelor’s degree in per acre per year for beginners.
